GREAT IFE STUDENTS' UNION

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable*_ John F. Kennedy

Revolutionary greeting to all Nigerian Students!

Great Ife Students' Union condemns the inconsiderable and unjustifiable shut of University of Ibadan and the eventual suspension of the Students' Union by the university management.

It is extremely absurd and inconsistent to the dictate of democratic principle for the university management to have considered shutting down a university just because students expressed their grievance over what they perceived to be incorrect and inappropriate in the way the university management has been treating them.

The action taken by the Management of University of Ibadan to shut down the university and eventually suspend the Union at the time when examination was about to commence is totally barbaric and tyrannical. They have clearly shown the student populace their intolerance and oppressive tendency to deprive students of their right to demonstrate and protest when their welfare condition is being handled with levity instead of proffering a drastic and clear-headed solution to the situation on ground.

Therefore, Great Ife Students' Union SAY NO to the draconic and rash decision of the University Management and demand immediate and unconditional reopen of University of Ibadan and the swift reinstatement of the activities of the Students' Union.

However, it should be clearly and unambiguously stated that students are not ready to resume until ID cards are made available to them. Therefore, ID cards must be provided before commencement of any examination whatsoever. The university has charged students for ID card as indicated in the breakdown of their school fees, thus necessary provision must be made to cater for such a need without any further delay.

Finally, we demand that students should be allowed to use hot plates in their kitchenettes as there is no part of the University handbook that states contrary to that.

Aluta Continua!!!
