Covenant University Stipulates Negative Test To Pregnancy, Hiv As Precondition

Oh by the way. I am new guys! Just joined Nairaland today.

People Living With HIV/AIDS. And, mmm I do not want to join issues sha, but like was said, let the man of God clarify issues. It is unjust to discriminate because Jesus no go discriminate who go enter his kingdom. Christians should be seen to be living what they teach. It is unchristian to discriminate in whatever guise. I stand to be corrected

Even at work, once I am done my tasks and waiting for my supervisor to give me new ones, I am always just browsing through threads and reading the ones that catch ma interests!!!

Yeah, I feel you on tha one! I have read some threads that have turned real ugly!! What's up with that? Thanks a lot for replying!

Its because many  at times, we call him Father but know him not!

Just to clarify one thing;
1. Married people(women) who have registered their Marriage with the school can do it and be pregnant. That one is allowed _{according to the original/first post.}


Question; Why are people saying/insinuating the Oyedepo is not aware of this Law/rule. The bloody school is his own. He knows. Infact he made the damn law.

Why will parents actually send their kids to such mediocre schools?? I mean the laws/rules are downright ridiculous. No cellphones, No relationships, Lights out, No partying, No socialization, You must attend church on Sundays, Dress codes _{(this I could understand)}, e.t.c. And to top it up, they now discriminate against pregnant chicks, and PLWHA (people living with HIV AIDS).

If parents feel their kids are not mentally developed enough to live independently in school then they should keep them at home. This sounds more like bootcamp than a university. Most people are trying to compare CU with Oral Roberts University, but they differ greatly. ORU is being run by smart intelligent educationists, CU is obviously being run by a "nigerian pastor".

A decent university is not determined by the amount of HIV-ive students you have or the amount of Virgins you graduate. It seems they are more concerned with "morals" than the actual purpose a university is created for. University life is supposed to prepare you for both the educational side of life _{(hence the lectures and books)}, the political side (Student unions, student associations, e.t.c), the emotional part (hence the freedom of interaction and dating and pregnancy i guess  ), e.t.c.

That school/management needs to review its priorities because its obvious that they are either confused or outrightly stupid.

  [b][/b]says who? is that how your bible wrote it? Jesus never said everyone will enter the kingdom of God, he said, except a man is born again, he can never seen the kingdom of God, so please stop trying to twist the bible to your taste, Bishop Oyedepo (covenant university) says except you conduct a test for pregnancy and HIV before and after school, you wont be allowed to gain admission or graduate yet until your problems are taken care of, and they never said they won't admit, they only said they will have to screen and then treat the case before any other thing, stop trying to make people think the same way you think and do things, you can't expect all schools are be the same, so every schools has its own policies and this is Covenant's policies, its either you take it or leave it, after all, American embassy won't grant you visa if you are HIV positive and UK won't grant you visa if you either HIV positive or have tuberculosis.

Thanks!

people are now hitting at someone they shouldn't be hitting at, well you are responsible for your own actions!

i wont make comment for or against this because i graduated from the school.its scary doing the tests knowing your graduation even after convocation is on a shaky pedestal.its for a reason and whatever it is, i hope its purpose is not defeated.

If at all , they should ASK students to sign a contract before they start school and not after eating their money,
By the way is it not aganist the law
