So it happened that students have to stay on a long cue and some even climb on the storex tank in order to fetch water in the school hostels/halls. There have been shortage of water due to power outage in the halls for more than three days. Rumours have it that the school management is owing BEDC and that's why they refuse to supply electricity to the school for days now.
The funniest aspect of it all is that you need to have a "connection " for you to be able to fetch.

cue or queue


are u making ref to cue ball in snooker

are you really a std of uniben or a visitor

Sad hw the young people are dumb to simple realities of living well and creating a life with brilliant ideas. They are blinded by sexuality and pale perspective for the future. Old fools confuse young senseless persons to kill themselves. Suffering for food and water.

Uniben is overrated, the only thing that make sense there is their main gate

In case you want to quote me, l was there few days ago, l went round the school their hostels inclusive with my cousin, the school is so ugly

you mean university of Benin is over-rated and ugly
you don't know anything son.
light travels faster than sound that is why some people appears bright and intelligent until you hear them speak. I pity you and your ignorance.
right now all federal universities in Nigeria are seen as same by buhari administration. ignoring the fact that the amount of money they generate to federal government are not the same.
go and seek for knowledge on the billions uniben generate for your government every month then you will never use the word over-rate for uniben anymore.
uniben is number one when it comes to revenue generation.
to whom much is expected then much should be given for infrastructure but buhari administration is not doing that. federal universities in the south and west are generating money for government but the universities in the north are enjoying without generating half of what the ones in south and west are generating.

Cue is correct bros!!! It's a variant spelling of queue. American english. undecided
You always have your dictionary.

Conditions in Federal schools are pathetic

No, you are totally wrong!!!

Cue in this context is absolutely wrong because it refers to a long plait (of hair) or pigtail rather than a long line or sequence of people which is what is being referred to here.

This is serially. Pathetic, don't the school get allocations from th government,I thinks it's high time quarterly or yearly audit be conducted in all these institutions to ascertain how funds allocated are disbursed.

I believe if this is done with all sincerity discoveries would be made to see where these votes/allocation are diverted to

My humble submission!!!

only federal(govt) schools?everything run by govt is a joke except aso rock and other govt houses; nepa,though its phcn or whatever now, frcn, nta, nitel, npf, nipost,govt hospitals,nrc, water board, etc...how can one person seated in his a.c tight office in abuja effectively co-ordinate the affairs of all theseand they say we dont need to change our system of govt...just so they can continue controlling budget of trillions, and the dumb masses keep tearing themselves apart in the name of religion and ethnicity while everything comes to a waste

What he's saying is the truth. Uniben is overrated. Yes the school generate funds but the allocation they get are squander by same university authorities. The corruption there is at its peak.

uniben management is always up and doing. one of the most active in Nigeria.

Re: Uniben Students Queue To Fetch Water In The School Halls Due ToShortage Of Water by Nobody: 10:51am On May 07, 2017
Report reaching me from a reliable source states that the power outage experienced from Tuesday to Friday wasn't new to the school that's why they have a generating set for powering the school and a separate one for pumping water. The shortage of water may not be attributed to power failure but to the water pumping machine .

But you're also not denying the fact that those pictures were taken in Uniben; so what's the point So you mean posting your image online is tantamount to destroying your image? SHM.

They say a school is overrated and you're talking about generating fund for FG. What has that got to do with their learning environment, international recognition, research impact, student welfare or any other pertinent issue
