FUNAAB Declares Mid-Semester Break

The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), has declared a 7-day mid-semester break for the Second Semester, 2015/2016 Academic Session with effect from Thursday, August 18, 2016. This is to enable the university to put additional welfare and security arrangements in place, to further support the initiatives of the Federal and State Governments, towards the protection of lives and properties of its citizens, particularly, members of staff and students of the university.

As part of the efforts towards ensuring a safe haven for members of the University community, amidst the security challenges presently facing some parts of our country, Nigeria, FUNAAB has partnered with the Ogun State Commissioner of Police and the Director, State Security Service (SSS), to uphold safety of lives and property of staff and students living within the school environs, following Armed Robbery reports received by students residing in Isolu, a community situated close to the University, which is highly populated by staff and students of FUNAAB.

To this end, the University’s Security Team, in collaboration with the Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) from Odeda and Obantoko areas, both in Abeokuta, Ogun State, often take turns, on a daily basis, to patrol the University environs at night. The University Management has also encouraged the various communities to embrace community policing and vigilante services, to support the efforts of the Police and the SSS.

It is also important to note that students are properly scrutinized during the University’s screening exercise after the Post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, to pro-actively ensure that candidates with questionable characters are not admitted into the University. Students have also been cautioned to live a low profile life, avoid attracting unnecessary attention to themselves, be alert, be vigilant about happenings in their surroundings and be free to contact the University’s Chief Security Officer (CSO), in case they notice any strange movement or occurrence around their vicinities.

Towards ensuring that all students reside within the University campus, provision of accommodation is also on the the front-burner of the University. Aside the existing campus hostels which the University had been able to build within its limited resources. FUNAAB has also been able to get well-meaning Nigerians; the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund), through its Special Intervention Fund; private organisations; and generous individuals to build additional hostels within the University, which are currently at various stages of completion.

Additionally, the University Management has directed that all lectures do not exceed 6pm daily, to allow students get to their homes before dark, while the University transportation services is always available to convey students, who reside outside the campus, close to their destinations.

Meanwhile, contrary to reports being circulated by certain media, it is pertinent to state that the University did not lose anyone during the recent unrest by students of the University. Rather, the only student, who was hurt when he engaged a Police Officer in a scuffle, is currently receiving attention at the University College Hospital, Ibadan.

Attention has also been drawn to reports on the invitation extended to some Principal Officers of the University by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). As public officers as well as responsible and law abiding citizens, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Olusola Oyewole and the Bursar, Mr. Moses Ilesanmi have since honored the invitation by the anti-graft agency, to make clarifications on issues bordering on the administration of the University.

The University Management assures that the situation is under control, as normal administrative activities continue unabatedly.

RedArrow:
Let me quickly analyze the aftermath of this protest.

The arrested students would be granted bail

A newspaper publication with about 100 names of students to face special panel on a set date would be made available in @ least 3 dailies

The almost 100 names would have a mixture of those they want to punish and the management boys and girls (smokescreen)

After the special panel, another list of those they really want to punish would be published... These time, they would be asked to come and face student disciplinary committee.

The verdict would follow, rustication and the likes.

What can you do?

This a struggle for freedom... An injury to one is an injury to all?
1. Stay together... The management would attempt to break your bond.
2.Strategize... Get in touch with the SUG lawyers...NBA, Labour Unions
3. Seek support from Student Union of neighbouring schools through NANS zone D
4. Call your alumni especially those who have once been through this road.. Wole Aluta, Fasasi,L&K,Tosino,Dare etc the heroes of September 30th 2004 struggle for freedom
5. You will need your connection...use them well, get the Ooni of Ife involve, Get the Awujale of Ijebu, The Alake of Egba land, the Governor of Ogun state and king of boys...OBJ involve.

Finally, hold a press conference probably in Lagos.

....Talking from experience

You made an astounding contribution. The students in our schools today failed to learn from history, else they wouldn't resort to vandalism to make their voices heard.

By the time names are published on the national dailies, which employer is going to employ such student after carrying out background checks on them? They forgot so soon that their future is what they are tainting.

To those who are praising Balogun for maintaining a peaceful Unaab, no he did not. The school was generally peaceful because the students have learnt about the consequences of protesting from those who are ahead of them. Abi, who in his right senses will by his own hand add more years to his stay on campus when ASUU is already doing the damages for him?

Yet a student who doesn't know how to turn 100 naira to 200 naira vandalising properties..they must pay thru their nose..unless the VC is actually soft the way he was described..but trust Prof Adu.

I perceive the school missed it by admitting various kinds of students without carrying out thorough checks on them like it used to be in early/mid 2000s.

UNAAB students were known for being studious, almost Zero social life, and this made the school unattractive for admission for those fronting this senseless protests today.

We know that even if the school is 100% residential, some students still won't stay..so in addition to the safety tips stated up there, let the landlord's association, local vigilantes, examine their locality very well. Students should maintain low life, report strange faces, lock up and always stay indoor when it's late.

the security job of the citizens belongs to the police force and other security agencies not the VC of an institution.

What is wrong with you people... I spent 5years in this same school and we had several protests but no properties were destroyed.

If you guys know you've got the balls truly, go block and protest b4 the state police headquarter Elewe eran and stop behaving like animals

I believe in any of your protests.
The Police shot one of the protesters
They shot him/her with gun, with bullet.


I see people's comments here, and I remember the words of someone intelligent, dumb people will always be dumb, because they'll keep saying dumb things

Some people just commenting shit.

Yes, I also condemn the vandalism, but they were been pushed to the wall, the NPF shot at the Students, live ammunition was used.
Even the people that burnt vehicle might not be students, but 60 students were arrested, most of them from the comfort of their rooms.


RedArrow thanks for the contribution, we'll look into it

another means of d school to generate millions naira from d students....it a pity dey will pay for damages..
