That's unfair. He should have been placed on probation while he undergoes rehabilitation. Sending him away could lead to anger and bitterness and he could be destructive to himself and the society we live in. Anarchists don't just wake up one morning and start disturbing the peace, they're pushed to it most of the time

That guy is a potential danger to other students if the admission is upheld....had steps like this been taken decades ago, maybe the menace today called 'cultism' in our higher institutions wouldn't be this bad.

If he is young enough to be called a student, it means they (parents, family members) must have warned him against using drugs. Whether he obeyed or not, who knows but all i know is that, Now, he will have sense!


And maybe, he wasn't using it, but was walking with friends who use, he will still learn sense.

May I never touch marijuana with a 10 feet pole in Jesus Name

Pls O.P, what is marijuana.....ayamnotunderstanding,Thankio in anticipation for your explanation

kizito90:
honestly, this is a good development because back in my university days, the rate at which this weed indulgence among my fellow students was very high and it made them not different from violent thugs.

Weed doesn't make you a good guy or a bad guy.
Just like going to church doesn't make you a good guy.

Those that smokes weed and act violent.

Are already violent before taking it

Good for him. Let him continue his drug taking in his father's house. Idiot

You may think so because you smoke too. But have ever thought about the eternal consequences of smoking?

Everyone seems right in his own view;

hope you know the stress in universities

Are you telling me after passing through those stress Mentally, emotionally, financially and so on for 4 good years, you won't graduate me but you collected all my fees and kept me for 4years? We die there!!!

The best option is never to start what you can't finish! Unilag has strong counseling unit but drug addicts hardly change. They don't even take counsel




[qquote author=afroxyz post=74995335]How these so called intellectuals think baffles me. A university that is supposed to the the citadel of ideas is exhibiting shallowness in approach. why not create a rehabilitation and Guardian counselling unit. Any student that tests positive should be sent there while also attending his studies. you can make it compulsory that unless he underlies and passes rehabilitation he won't graduate from school even if his CGPA is 5.0. They can even charge the student for such services. denying students admission is only throwing them back into the same circle of influence. jeez![/quote]

una never see anything for this country....dem go soon start to dey test for virginity and masturbation..so dem go reduce d number of candidates...if u test positive lasan...u are out

Depends on what you are smoking.

Weed contains THC and it is yet to kill anybody yet
Cigrattes contains nicotine and it kills millions Every year.
Alcohol kills every year

Do you know coffee contains caffeine psychoactive drug?
Yet it is legal?

basty:

You are afraid, are you one?

lol... won't be found in my generation

rusher14:

Months in your hair sample.

oh! that complicated. thank you

MaestroJhay:
The university of Lagos made the announcement for zero tolerance on hard drug usage and have been making all effort to screen the newly admitted students of hard drugs.

A student of human kinetics department (James) have been withdrawn from the school after being tested positive to Marijuana use, and with the screening still ongoing there might still be uproar of more students to be withdrawn.

� he should have borrowed someone's urine �

Stanleyafam:
Is marijuana a hard drug?

rara ooo.....it's a supplement

Raylight2:
what if he has repented? or how long does weed stays in the blood?

y u asking as if ur free from it or is it because ur skul didn't screen u..(if at all)

Jaysas1:
y u asking as if ur free from it or is it because ur skul didn't screen u..(if at all)

hahahahaha.... menh ! I'm free. not everyone takes marijuana and I'm one of them. I'm free. I'd test 0% for alcohol talkless of mari

Like is u take marijuana Share if you're free

Asquare84:


so a youth who is in drugs is doing good to himself, if it pain your ass go and fight unilag

You miss the point. What has drug use have to do with the quest for education?

Is it the duty of the school to deny admission or provide assistance in form of required counseling?

Must it be total denial to the basic right of education just because of drugs?

I find it abnormal and crude

The truth is that this will discourage youth from taking drugs

My point is total abstinence from smoking

Smoking weed won't do any major damage to you.

mrnigeria:
I know this is unpopular opinion, but you can test possible for marijuana if you are not a user.

how?
if you stay in the same house with weed smokers and inhale their secondary smoke.

so it is two ways, he could be guilty of using, or not.

lets just "disagree to agree" that the boy is a weed junkie....

a rehab and counselling program would do the world a lot more good than the path Unilag is towing by denying this kids admission.
my two centz.

it is not possible I work in the lab I have done close to 100 drug toxicology testing it's a urine test not an inhalation test so even u inhale it it cannver be present on your urine

OneSentence:

and common sense could not tell the boy to leave the environment that makes him a secondary smoker since he's going for a drug test abi? keep defending him...it's obvious why you are anyway

tell us the obvious, sir.


assumption is the worst form of intelligence.

jiggyman:

okay sir.

my point is not about the boy being a drug user or not.
my point is the choice of "method of correction", which is very likely to be counterproductive.

Contact me if you wanna know your status before the school collects your sample for test. Save yourself and your future please. No time abeg.

So smoking weed will make you join cult?

GoggleB:

He exceeded the regular Igbo smoker, cause he wasn't the only one that tested positive to marijuana..
They already filed rehabilitation for some, but he tested positive to all the psychoactive substance..

Worse expulsion would happen when they start returning students own upon resumption..

Is is true returning students would test for hard drugs too? Haven't seen the memo. plenty strong men go fall.

Are you an aspirant?

if Yes, then No it's not
if No, then maybe

aspirant ke? I'm a graduate of Unn

luluosas:

Because im smoking weed?

But it's okay to drink alcohol and drink coffee?

maynia:


So smoking weed will make you join cult?

Yes. It gives you a higher propensity to. Your circle of friend would most likely be weed smokers and cultists. Although, there are cult guys who neither smoke nor drink, but the risk is higher when you smoke weed and hang out with fellow smokers.
