Most of what you highlighted are obtainable in most universities in Nigeria, but the fact that these vices are escalating is a cause for concern: that makes your article laudable, OP.

Though the school management is uncharacteristically tardy with the issuance of tabs, I still see the whole idea of it impressive.

The Wifi and Sweatshirt charges: SUG and school no try o. I've not even used #5 of that #5000 wifi charges.

Finally, given the chance again, I'll choose Unilorin first, 10x over before considering any other school. Unilorin has its flaws, the school is no saint, but it ain't a ranked sinner either.

Shout out to all class 2016!

So, I have decided to let the world know my plight and, that of my fellow helpless, confused, sometimes tired and, confused student.

What you are about to read are nothing but the truth but, I will propose means to verify my claims.

This short essay will gives insight into the unfair treatment meted out to helpless student of ...UNILORIN in general and my department in particular.

UNILORIN:
1. Tablet pc: Since 2013 first year students are been mandated to pay extravagant fees, about N25,000 of that money is reported to be for the acquisition of android tab. Sadly, they are substandard, any student will readily attest to how sub-standard these tabs are, only a meager number of students use theirs beyond a semester because it develops faults easily, the calibration always has fault, in fact, mine developed fault just lying on the ground.
Also, the 'mass' production of a tab that substandard should be not more than N10,000 but, unfortunately we are charged an exorbitant fee of 150% extra.
Currently, the freshers and some 200L students are yet to receive the tabs. Bear in mind that the money for the tabs have been paid for with the school fees, also bear in mind that the purpose of the tab was to 'aid' learning and we are already having second semester exams.


2. Wifi and Sweatshirts: At the resumption of the 2015/16 session students were compelled to pay N5,000 and N2,500 for Wifi and sweatshirt respectively.
Social sciences didn't get the Wifi infrastructure till the second semester.
For the sweatshirts... there was an uproar in school over how substandard the sweatshirts were, just wash them for about three times and they will fade as if you have been using them for over two years. As at the time of writing this, only the 100L and final year students have received their sweatshirts. Those sweatshirts will take nothing more than N1000-N1200 to produce, but then we paid N2,500.

FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (MY DEPT):
1. Sexual harassment and paying for results: By now some of you must have heard about a Dr. Idiagbon of the Faculty of Arts that sexually harassed a female student. Breaking News! THERE ARE MORE!!! like him in Social sciences.
I have first hand knowledge and information about sexual harassment in my department (For now, I will not mention names of Lecturers or department). I also have first hand experience of a lecturer collecting money for results. These people are my 'friends' and fellow students and, that's why I've decided not to name names.
My problem with these acts is that the lecturers automatically makes foes of those students that wouldn't act obsequiously. I and some other diligent students have been dealt by this.
In the 2014/15 session a certain lecturer even after facing allegations of bribery and other offences eluded judgement because he has 'legs.' Students don't talk publicly or call for results because of the fear of victimisation.
Well, I know students that paid bribes, female students that were favoured, and student who were treated badly. Hmm, still not calling names.

UNILORIN' ROLE IN VERIFYING MY CLAIMS AND CURBING THIS MENACE:
1. Carry out a survey among students (students must be anonymous), survey should be directed towards (i) knowing students who have been harassed or knows somebody who has, (ii) knowing lecturers who are involved etc.
If these lecturers perceive that they are being watched, they will behave.
2. Create a body or mechanism where complaints like this can be lodged anonymously so students don't suffer the repercussion.
3. Give us goods worth our money.
4. Students shouldn't be mandated to pay for tablets, the country is tough enough.

This is the cry of so many students feeling helpless. Please EPP US!
NB: I've good grades, but my grievance is that it should have been better if not for lecturer-impunity. Written sociology faculty courses are good examples of mindless allocation of marks.
Even if nothing is done about the past, at least, something should be done to curb further occurrence.
UNILORIN 'Probitas Doctrinas (In learning and in character)' shouldn't be limited to students alone.

The same thing at Unibadan. I know a DLI student who brought her tab for a fix in my friend's shop, in the process, the touch pad cracked and all efforts to get a replacement failed. The lady's brother who also is a DLI student said the touch can only be replaced by the engineer on ground provided by the tab supplier!

You can imagine..

I graduated from Unilorin 2007. The harassment seem more now. I know one badoo for computer science( Babatunde), he chop more than 10 babes(different classes) in my set alone. I also heard of some bad lecturers in microbiology and Biochemistry. Government really need to protect students from the bad lecturers. The only carry over I had was as a result of the wickedness of some people in mathematics dept. I passed exam, dem say I too pass am... So dey made me carry it. God dey!

In as much as I would have love to point out more of the obscenities that are taking place in Unilorin but I would like to keep mute and pretend as if I'm oblivious of it all. Can't just wait t finish this final exam and get out of this "*Acclaimed Better by Far university"







Meanwhile, I rep class of 2016

Thats what you get when you have a graduate-quickly-at-all-cost mentality in this kind of setting where school administrators are out to reap off the poor students.

1. No vibrant Unionism
2. Half-baked graduates that can't even speak up in the face of oppression/exploitation not to talk of defending their rights
3. The people benefitting from the scam use the loot to send their wards to better school, and give them better devices
4. Continue ranting here on NL and do nothing at least you've paid.


Evil prosper because good people concur to it.
I trust OAU. Aluta forces go collect the money back after the first iteration.
