Video: 162 students tested for HIV in EKSU
During the last time EKSU HEALTH WEEK by The Health City, various students from different departments of different faculties turned out en mass for the two days program and 162 students were tested for HIV.
According to one of the participants we interviewed, Jennifer who is a graduate of Ekiti State University (EKSU), the program is the first of it's kind in ESKU. She said the program was totally free. All you needed do was to go for the program. She added that anyone that was tested was tested for free and students could ask questions from the Professional Doctor that was available.
Another participant and co-organiser of the program, Oyinlola, said the program is a shift for so many youths. He was so astonished by the number of students that turned up for the health program particularly, the HIV tests. He added that the results of the tests would be sent to the individuals via text messages for confidentiality.
During the interview, he told CloudGossips that people responded to the test without stigmatization which is unlike before. A lot of students were willing to check their status. He urges the youths and elders to take their health seriously.
The president of The Health City, Odunola who is a Medical student at EKSU said she was so excited. She acknowledged that the turn u was more that they expected. They expected about 100 participants but got about 200. She said the program was set up to enlighten students about preventive Medicine and other health issues.
According to her, so many questions were asked in which the Doctor, Dr Aderibigbe from EKSUITH, provided answers to.
On why she chose Preventive medicine rather than curative medicine, she responded that prevention is always the best in all cases. It saves time, apart from money, stress, pain, and all that. Prevention is, a universal fact, the best...

I don't like it when people use Xmas instead of CHRISTmas but from Mathematics, those
people are saying that the 'X' we have been looking
for since eternity is found in Christ. PraIse God.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance.

Just last month, primary and secondary school
teachers in Osun State embarked on an industrial
action because of non-payment of salaries,
likewise on the 1st of June,2015, NASU in EKSU
did the same thing over same dilemma. In view
of this,I think the following questions need to be
answered , why is it that our educational sector
is suffering over funds and salary? Why is it that
hands that work is suffering? so d
It is obvious from the aforementioned that the
federal and indeed state governments who own
these schools have not proven to be honourable
in ensuring the faithful implementation of the
agreements they entered into with the academia
from the onset. This has engendered a lack of
trust and confidence of the scholars in the
government. It is worthy of note that the latest
strike action in EKSU has already disrupted the
academic calendar.
What is Strike? According to Oxford dictionary of
learning,strike means refusal to work as a form
of organized protest, typically in an attempt to
obtain a particular concession or concessions
from their employer.
Academic strike on the other hand,means refusal
of lecturers and teachers to work. It may be in
form of organized protest also, typically in an
attempt to obtain a particular concession or
concessions from their employer.
Over time, the issue of strike has generated a lot
of controversies and
setbacks in the development of the educational
sector and up till now, the solution seems not-
to-be in sight as strike actions continue in most
tertiary institutions across the nation,Nigeria. It
is surprising that despite all efforts put in place
by the Federal Ministry of Education and other
regulatory agencies to mitigate strike actions in
the nation’s higher institutions, the trend still
persists as if nothing has been done to curb it.
One would begin to wonder what must have led
to this unending situation faced by the
educational sector. Is it the system that is so
bad or those that are piloting the affairs of the
sector? Sometimes stakeholders begin to ask if
the issue of strike would not destroy
government’s genuine efforts in repositioning the
educational sector the way things are going.
CONSIDERING ASUU AS AN ASSOCIATION.
The ASUU was formed in 1978, a successor to
the Nigerian
Association of University Teachers formed in
1965 and
covering academic staff in all of the Federal and
State
Universities in the country.
HISTORY OF ASUU STRIKE IN NIGERIA:
1999---5 months
2001---3 months
2002---2 weeks
2003---6 months(ended in 2004)
2005---3 days
2006---1 week
2007---3 months
2008---1 week
2009---4 months
2010---5months and 1 week
2011---3 months(ended in 2012)
2013---11 weeks+....
The impact of the ASUU strike and the likes of
other industrial actions always fall on innocent
students as there would be no lecture and little
or no concentration on academics for both
lecturers and the students. In most
cases,schools are shut down. So the need to
work towards ending continuous strike in the
tertiary institutions in the country is very
necessary as it affects the development of
education.
According to Prof. Dairo(EKSU Dean of
Agric):"Staffs of many institutions go on strike
only for the sake of there inconsistent salary and
benefits, but they forgot to join students to go
on strike,if there's an unforeseen exponential rise
in fees". This point I believe is also part of a
leap to a better academic scenerio.
THE PROS AND CONS; AND THE DIVERSE
EFFECTS ON ALL
The "diverse effects on all" means how strike
influences and affects both the lecturers and the
students. Below are some points;
GAINS OF LECTURERS
1. Increased allowances for project supervision,
call duty, extra hours
worked,hazards, etc.
2. Payment of salaries and entitlements for the
several months in which they didn’t work!
3. Those schools that usually do not partake in
the industrial struggle e.g UNILORIN and RSUST
will also benefit from the infrastructure funds and
the earned allowances.
NEGATIVE EFFECT OF THE STRIKE ON
LECTURERS
Delay in obtaining Masters and PhD’s for those
still doing their postgraduate studies.
GAINS OF THE STRUGGLE FOR STUDENTS
1. The funds released for infrastructure will be
used to meet the immediate needs of our
schools. Some will use the funds to construct
more hostels, some will use it to equip libraries,
provide internet connectivity,build laboratories
and furnish them,amongst others.
These are projects that will aid learning and
ultimately benefit students.
2. Those that will later join the academia and
become Professors among us will also have the
benefit of retiring at 70 years.
3. Those that will join the academia among us
will also enjoy the special allowances that the
current struggle will benefit lecturers in the years
to come.
NEGATIVE EFFECT OF THIS STRUGGLE FOR
STUDENTS.
1. BATTERED ACADEMIC CALENDAR
Academic calendar is thus in tatters!
In this view,I think Vice Chancellors and
Governing Council members of tertiary
institutions in the country should be held
responsible for any crisis, because they are there
to guide against issues that could lead to crisis.
They are supposed to nip any crisis in bud under
their supervision in order to avert unforeseen
occurrences that may arise.
2.Many of our students would now have time to
fully engage in social vices such as
prostitution,cultism, kidnapping, armed robbery,
fraud and many others in order to while away
time as well as make illicit money.
3.It will be difficult for many of us to seek proper
legitimate job as we are not certain when our
lecturers will call off their
strike; more so, we have no meaningful
qualifications to seek full employment.
4.In the course of needless travels embarked
upon by students when their lecturers down
tools,some of the students have died
prematurely.
5.The disruption of studies of the students will
also have negative psychological impact on us.
By the time the strike is over, many of the
students would most likely have forgotten what
they were taught before the unwarranted break.
NEGATIVE EFFECT OF STRIKE ON OUR NATION
NIGERIA
This frequent dislocation and disability of our
public tertiary education is what is making many
wealthy Nigerians to send their children and
wards to tertiary institutions abroad(in Ghana,
the United Kingdom, the United States of
America even Asian countries). Millions of
scarce foreign currencies are lost to this
"educational tourism" as payments have to be
made in dollars, Euros or pound sterling, but
only for the privileged.
Those who cannot send their children overseas
have to pay through their nose educating them
at the more stable private universities in the
country.
All the problems that have been causing
incessant strikes in the tertiary institutions
across the country can be tackled by those put
in place to administer the institutions such as
governing councils and the management.
Professor Chinua Achebe(march 22, 2013) said
"While we do our good works let us not forget
that there's a medium for both likely and
unlikely". Strikes are an unfortunate part of the
negotiations between
Staffs and the management.
Fortunately they are as nearly as common as
they used to be,
large part because both the unions and the
government(management) have not realized just
how disruptive strike can be.

Earlier this semester, Ekiti State University
(EKSU), Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State introduced an
Entrepreneurship Course across all levels in the
school; from 100 to 500Level.
However, since the course was introduced, there
had never been a lecture or materials like
photocopies or textbooks distributed to the
students. The students registered the course
with N1000.
Last week, a broadcast was sent on BBM,
Whatsapp and Facebook notifying the students
that a lecture was going to hold today starting
by 8am to 2pm for all the levels.
At least, each category or level has a minimum
of 2000 students. This students are to be in a
class for the a lecture.
After about an hour beyond the scheduled time,
two lectures came into one of the classes, the
one for the 300Level students, and stood at the
podium for some times without talking to the
students.
They tried to leave the class when the students
halted them with a shout. They claimed the
students were making noise. They later left the
class.
The unavailability of Public Address System
made the class worst as there was no adequate
communication between the lecturers and the
students.

God bless Eksu
God bless Nigeria..

By Amerijoye Akintomide Ifelola
We pray Heavenly Father that you will help us to
understand this write-up and live it and use it for
your Glory- Amen !
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the world of today, the above issues has gone
so vogue and in every mind of every believer. Is
it
a sin for a woman to use trousers? Hun...
When God created man, He didn't create man
alone, he created man and "man". The first man
is the you reading this, whilst the second man is
your "conscience".
God installed conscience into the life of every
man He created, but unfortunately, many have
sold their to the devil in a transaction of
wickedness.
As Christians, we should let our conscience be
hyper-active in everything we do in live. When
you
use something and your conscience condemns it,
PLEASE STOP USING IT! Cos if you don't yield,
your conscience will appear and stand against
you
on the day of judgment and say "Did I not warn
you?" May your conscience not stand against
you-Amen!
If you examine my profile picture down there,
you'll
notice the crazy hair-cut on my big head (Lol!).
I have been called lots of names because of it
but my
conscience is so cool with it and so is my God,
so who are they to judge?
The moral lesson of
this preamble is that you should let your
conscience guide you in everything you do. Be it
action, thought, or what have you. Please.
In the book of Deuteronomy 22:5 the bible says "
A woman shall not use that which pertains to a
man, and a man shall not use that which
pertains
to a woman, whosoever does so is an
abomination to the Lord your God".
This is "THE
LAW". The Law ruled the entire Old testament
and in those days men have to offer sacrifices of
lamb, sheep, oven, cattle and so on, on the alter
with incence and then a sweet smelling salvo will
arise and the Lord will smell it and forgive their
sins or grant their heart desires.What a long
process??!
Thank God for technology (Jesus Christ) that
was
invented, now even in the comfort of your room,
you can ask for mercy, and forgiveness just by
confessing and you are good with God. Isn't that
wonderful?
THIS IS IT!!!...
When Jesus died on the cross, the first place his
soul went to was HELL FIRE, when He got to the
gates of HELL, He said " lift up your head oh ye
gates, and be ye lifted up oh ye everlasting
doors,
and the King of Glory shall come in..."
Jesus went into hell for our sins, he went
through
all you should have gone through in HELL and
paid all the prices. Immediately this was going
on
in HELL the bible recorded that the veil of the
temple tore into two halves and the ark of
covenant was revealed. Have you ever wondered
what this meant?
This is the meaning dearest
reader-
That second when that veil tore! Jesus
unleashed
something very powerful on all those who and
who will believe in him called "GRACE".
Now, people can see the ark of covenant through
this
veil- which implies that you can now go to God
directly and you no longer need any priest,
pastor,
evangelist or whatever to speak to him for you,
simply go to God on your knees and discuss with
Him. This is the GRACE Christ gave. How
wonderful!
By this Grace, we are re-adopted by God and He
called us "My own".
Now in romans 6:14 " for sin shall not have
dominion over you, for you are not under the
Law
but under GRACE! Halleluyah! This is one of the
beautiful gifts Christ has given to us. Just his
blood!
So my brothers and sisters, you are NO LONGER
under the Law but under GRACE!
Deuteronomy 22:5 is the Law, Christ has
canceled that for you okay? Enjoy GRACE!
I must mention that now that you are free in
Christ you should use grace with your senses!
Wear trousers with senses o... How do I mean?
Good... DO NOT wear your trousers in a way that
will
cause men to be tempted (commit sin). Flee
from
tight skinned leggins of nylon materials and other
ungodly assorted designers! Something in the
picture above is very okay.
If u wear it in such a way that the shape of your
bum n laps can be clearly examined please stop
now.. Doing it that way, your wearing trousers is
now sin. Don't cause people to fall.
God bless you.
Enjoy His Grace.

Proverbs 16:33
The Message (MSG)
Make your motions and cast your
votes,
but GOD has the final say.
5 REASONS WHY YOU DON'T NEED TO DIE FOR
ANY POLITICIAN BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER
ELECTIONS :
1. In 2011, Governor Shekarau of Kano State
contested for the Presidency on the platform of
ANPP against President Jonathan of PDP. So
did Nuhu Ribadu of ACN. Today, Gov. Shekarau
is a Minister in President Jonathan's cabinet & a
member of the President's party & Mallam Nuhu
Ribadu is the PDP's candidate for governorship
of Adamawa State. How many were killed
because of them in 2011?
2. President Obasanjo and Asiwaju Bola Ahmed
Tinubu were thought to be sworn enemies. When
President Obasanjo took over SW Nigeria in
2003, Gov. Tinubu became "last man standing"
against him in ACN/Lagos. Today, Obasanjo is
Tinubu's "Navigator" & Tinubu is treasured guest
at Obasanjo's birthday. How many died believing
they were enemies?
3. Fmr Govs, Engr. Segun Oni and Dr. Kayode
Fayemi of Ekiti used to be political foes and now
they belong to the same party. Both are alive as
friends & some folks had died fighting for them.
4. Fmr. Governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola never saw
eye to eye with Governor Aregbesola. Now, they
belong to the same party, some people died for
both, but were they not always friends?
5. President Obasanjo was prepared to throw VP
Atiku Abubakar out of Aso Rock. Who would
have thought that Atiku would visit Obasanjo in
Otta farm after all the brouhaha; politicians
belong to one big family. They have their interest
at stake, do not die for them especially when you
have nothing at stake.
Vote, that is your obligation. You do not owe
anyone a duty to die. Value your life, if you are
still alive you can be better than them.Say no to
violence, say no to blood letting.
Make a choice with your PVC & let Nigeria be
the winner! Spread the word

Hunge means the place of safety.
So many people have search the dictionaries and
web in order to look for the word hunge but
found no related meaning.
Also, Cloud Gossips met a lady who bears the
name today but didn't know the meaning too.
We have found the meaning of Hunge to be the
place of safety.
Any contrary opinion?

The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC), Friday, raised the alarm
that a fake letter purportedly written by the
Presidency to it to initiate discrete probe of
key opposition figures in the country, was in
circulation.
The commission described the letter said to
have been written and signed by the Chief of
Staff to the President as fake, and ordered
the agency to investigate the opponents.
“The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC wishes to alert the public
about a letter supposedly from the office of
the Chief of Staff to President Goodluck
Jonathan, mandating the commission to
initiate discreet investigation against some
prominent political figures in the country,” a
statement by EFCC spokesman, Wilson
Uwujaren said.
“The commission urges the public to
discountenance the said letter as it is forged
document, intended to mislead the people.“
The features of the letter are markedly
different from that on a genuine letter from
the office of the Chief of Staff to the
president,” the statement said.
Uwujaren therefore urged Nigerians to
discountenance the document.
He also
released pictures of both the fake and the
genuine letters from the President to guide
the public.

In order to arrest a potential situation like
the loss of the Permanent Voter’s Card
(PVC) or even difficulty in locating
collection centres, the Independent National
Electoral Commission, INEC, has decided to
engage the services of the All New 7411
National Directory Service.

According to PM News, INEC’s director of
voters education and publicity, Barrister
Oluwole Uzzi, said in a chat with the media
that sourcing such information from the
Commission through the directory via
telephone calls will cost N12/minute as
approved by NCC, which it noted is not more
than the normal call rate in the country,
“making it affordable to all to call at no
extra charges to the caller.”

In explaining the modality of operation in a
letter to the Bureau of 7411 directory and
signed by the secretary to the commission,
Mrs. Augusta C. Ogakwu, the commission
said that all information disseminated to
Nigerians via 7411 national directory service
shall be accurately sourced from official
sources only.
Commending INEC for having faith in 7411
directory and for engaging its services, the
Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of
Bureau of 7411 directory, Okeowo Desmond
Olasubomi applauded INEC for its support so
far.

Okeowo noted that his team will ensure as
part of his company’s corporate social
responsibility to Nigerians that 7411 Bureau
of Information will continue to “do our best
in helping Nigerians get to their desired
destinations correctly.”

Okeowo added that “when Nigerians dial
7411, they can locate collection points of
their PVC cards and voting centres, and
thousands of frequently asked questions and
telephones directory of INEC’s offices and
hotlines have been uploaded and will be
shared daily with Nigerians as they dial 7411
on a 24hrs. basis speaking their preferred
languages.”

It will be recalled that Jega reiterated
his promised that the commission will meet
Nigerians’ aspiration for free, fair and
credible elections during a meeting with the
37 Resident Electoral Commissioners in
Abuja.

THE management of Ekiti State University EKSU has directed her students to go home until they are been communicated to come back.

This is due to the sitting-strike that ASUU embarked on because of non payment of salaries.

We gathered that the Governor of the State, Mr Ayodele Fayose, had said that there is no enough money to pay there salaries.

Consequently, the Lectures embarked on an indefinite strike saying they can't work on an empty stomach.

EKSU is now synonymous to strike.... Lol
