The boldened got me laughing. Abeg, we get tokunbo sick bay? Besides, why not a health center because my understanding of sick bay is not befitting enough for a university since we should expect a geometric increase in the number of students admitted in the next one to two academic sessions.

AC Wey i dey take for granted here na big deal in naija...chei na wa ooo...its like generator being a big deal in naija but here its useless

I guess its time for boko haram guys to go back to school!

I give them just 3 years.

B.Sc in Criminology that's so nice,hope the ACs will be serviced,maintained & replaced when necessary because we lack continuety & maintenance culture here in Nigeria.

no bi gra gra, na initial gra gra.

SuyaEater: AC Wey i dey take for granted here na big deal in naija...chei na wa ooo...its like generator being a big deal in naija but here its useless

Ok

Back to something serious and "unsilly" ... the topic:
Those ACs, bad choice. Short-lived show-off.
Fans, good choice. Fans are easily maintainable and are less likely to be vandalized.

Kwara tech in those days used to have fully airconditioned labs and the lecture theater(centrally powered). I'm sure the current students will never believe. That's Nigeria for u.

sexy glow: B.Sc in Criminology that's so nice.

Outside this country we would expect one of their cliches to be: "to catch a thief you have to think like a thief".

The equivalent of that cliche in the Dutse Uni may likely be: "to catch a thief, you have to be a thief or follow them as friends on twitter!"

Just saying...

dirtymoney: Na today?

i thinj the room have enough windows. Even if there is power to enjoy it, the rooms will soon be overpopulated; hence the windows vandalized.
