Due to the ban on activities of Christian fellowships outside
the chapel of the University of Lagos (UNILAG), by the school
authority, Christian fellowships on the campus have
embarked on a seven-day prayer and fasting to seek
spiritual redress.
A memorandum sent to the students, dated 8th July 2015,
conveyed the new directive which the students must respect.
The memo partly reads: “The University of Lagos
Management has approved the no ‘noise policy’ and
directed that all social events such as parties, barbeque
nights, public announcements, rallies and campaign are no
longer allowed at all times within the vicinity of the faculties,
libraries, laboratories, lecture theatres and other academic
facilities.”
The university authority, however, approved alternative
centres for such events/activities, which include the student
union building premises, Lagoon Front and the UBA Park.
The memo also stated that the use of facilities such as
faculties, libraries, laboratories and other academic facilities
are prohibited for religious activities.
Meanwhile, the approved places for religious activities are
the chapel building, the University Mosque and the St.
Thomas Moore Catholic Chapel.
The UNILAG Joint Christian Fellowship may not have
accepted the school’s decision to stop their activities outside
the chapel as they have decided to take their mater to God.
A broadcast sent among Christian students after reading the
memo from the school authority reads: “Following the
directive of school authority against all fellowship activities
outside the chapel (UNILAG), UNILAG Joint Christian
Fellowship would be embarking on seven days fasting and
Prayer with meetings by 6pm everyday at the Chapel of
Christ Our Light (UNILAG).”
A student, presently at the College of Medicine, Idiaraba
Campus, Ayobami Ayodele, who was once an executive at
the fellowship affiliated to the Redeemed Christian Church
of God, told Newswatch Times that no such thing is
happening at the Idiaraba campus.
“I’m not on the main campus but no such thing is happening
here. I heard about the directives as well, I don’ think the
move will be welcomed by the students. This will definitely
threaten the religious freedom which has hitherto been
enjoyed by students. On the other hand, I think this should
stimulate the Christian community to practice Christianity
more as a life than as a mere religion because Christianity
isn’t about the preponderance of “religious activities,”
Ayodele said.
