[size=15pt]Graduands are ecstatic about graduating; they will accept mobbing as a form of congratulation.[/size]

No harm intended, just fun. Yet mates are seen mobbing and bullying each other.

The celebrating victims have just finished their final exams in Kogi State University and mates are celebrating the feat in a bizarre style.

Friends, junior schoolmates and well wishers are celebrating with them. But not in the conventional party mode you know. This is ‘rough and dirty.’

Graduands in Kogi state University are literally flogged, dragged on bare floor, and bathed with dirtiest and most stinking waste water – sometimes saved for the party.

Celebrants take no offence at the bizarre treatment, they endure it because they are overjoyed with graduating, an achievement that is not guaranteed for many university students in Nigeria.

The celebration is paradoxically fun for the students and have gradually grown into a huge tradition.

Some Alumni say celebratory bullying, seen in this video, is a new peak for a tradition which started with wetting graduands’, fresh from final examination classrooms, with water from ‘pure water’ bags or wine from expensive bottles.

Tales around the school have it that one student collapsed after she was choked with peppery waste water prepared to celebrate her graduation.

I'm not surprised. Second school dayz is worse, you will be beaten, water poured on you and some other sort.I guess they are so extremely happy without knowing what is awaiting them as the journey just started.

What do you expect from a school located in the Northern part of Nigeria,being educated there is seen as a luxury,and a straight ticket to be the Governor of the state. So am not surprised.

Who d f**k are U̶̲̥̅̊ again? Being ignorant is onethin, showing it on a public forum like this I think is d height of stupidity. What makes U̶̲̥̅̊ any better than anyone I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ d north; educated or not(that is if kogi is north anyways). Education has nofin to do with enlightnment (U̶̲̥̅̊, being a case I̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̥̅̊ point). So, neva look down on anybody or talk them down bcoz of their state of origin, nationality or colour.

nope, cos dis can b found in other universities in nigeria nd nt exclusive to d north.

Never saw such boisterous merry making in OAU, we just dance round the school, girls do their tin and boys close the bars at New buka. If person do all dis one wen he graduate, if he get Shell work, he fit mistakenly tear appointment letter out of excitement o.

by there fruit we shall know them,dirtiness is always associated with invaluable thing,if these kogi state university graduates could stoop so low to the extent of celebrating their graduation in these unhealthy,un-befitting,un-dignifying,crazy,archaic,uneducational,unsociable manner on their campus,it implies that :

1.The graduates have nothing to offer Nigeria
2.The graduates are reflection of what they are taught in school
3.The graduates have learnt nothing from the school
4.They are celebrating backwardness and so

i thank my God for not making me to have anything to do with the school and i pray i will never have anything to do with the school in Jesus name

oh,before i forget may be they dont know how to celebrate,please come down to UNILAG and witness one

go guys we are strongly bhind u. i can't wait 4 my own tym, 2013 is my year
