whirlwind7: Oh really?
She was exhibiting symptoms of EVD, and her roommates "rushed" her to the health centre?

All you baseless scaremongers with tasteless penchant for sensationalism must think everyone else has got their head up their a$$.

You want to tell us that her mates saw obvious symptoms of EVD and still went ahead to "rush" her to the health centre?
They must have fully kitted up with protective gears then, right?

Please save your tasteless piece of crap for those who dont know any better.
Anyone who experiences health emergency is now tagged as an EVD suspect. It's plain silly

BTW, is that a picture of her roommates up there, in full protective gears, ready to rush anyone else to the health centre...or just more of your attempt at adding sensation to your narrative?

Do I really need to answer this?? You had your point spelt out in your first line but you were too quick to dismiss the content of the post with perusing it.

It was a suspected case. It could end up a true case of EVD or another ailment with similar symptoms.

HEADYWORLD: mr davo are u saying the transcript submission will close this week coz my skul jux want to send my by Friday n dat means it will get there next week.. please I hope its not too late

Fear gripped students and staffs of Obafemi Awolowo University today as the news of a yet-to-be confirmed case of Ebola infection filtered through the University community. An Undergraduate female student was rushed to the University Health Centre by her room mates yesterday as she was said to be manifesting some peculiar symptoms of the deadly disease.

The rumour got intensified today as health workers of the World Health Organization(WHO) and other Bodies were sighted in the Health Centre dressed in the Ebola protective way 'fumigating' the environments. That would be the second time it will be fumigated today.

As at the time of filing this report, it is not yet clear if the suspected Ebola victim was still in the University Health Centre because another report has it that she has been moved to the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital, some minutes drive away from the University campus.

The University Management is yet to make any official declaration on the case. If the report is true, this will be the first Ebola case reported in The State of Osun.


More details later...

I think dat answers ur que

The crossed states are not within the catchment area of the Varsity. They are rather regarded as Educationally Less Disadvantaged States (ELDS).

dora7891: I'm enterin OAU through PD, my overall result was 75.8 Nursing which I don't like, is it possible for me to change to Pharmacy?, the cut off was 73.

Hmmm... Congratulations for your beautiful score. Changing to Pharmacy is not feasible. Even, considering the curriculum for Nursing, you cannot cross to Pharmacy after your first year.

By the way, I think you initially chose Nursing yourself and Nursing is not a bad course afterall. I would not know why you no longer want it.

OAU Releases 2014/2015 Admission Cut-Off Marks (UPDATED at 04:10pm today, 5th September, 2014) | OAU Peeps

The Referendum earlier announced by the Students' Union went on smoothly yesterday across the designated Polling Centres on campus. The Referendum was part of the resolutions of the Students' Union Parliament in its last Sitting. It is expected to play a pivotal role in the determination of the next line of action on the fee hike.

Some Polling Centres monitored by our Correspondents including that of Faculty of Administration, College of Health Sciences, Faculty of Sciences among others witnessed a low turnout during our period there. Many of the students do not really find it important to participate. The Ad-Hoc staffs at the Faculty of Sciences had to go into classes been held in BOOC which was filled to capacity to distribute the Referendum paper so that students there could participate. Since the lecture that was supposed to take them was not around, some of the students moved out to fill and submit their Referendum paper.

Many students have also criticized the publicity given to the Referendum. They complained they only got to know about the Referendum thesame morning it was held. Some also left their opinion doubting the objectivity of the Poll as they believed it will not reflect the opinion of over 20,000 Great Ife students as participation was no way near encouraging to them. A Part 4 student of the Department of Psychology who does not want his name mentioned said a Congress initiated the struggle and it should be thesame Congress of students that should decided the fate of it.

The Union leaders together with the Referendum Committee are expected to announce the result of that Poll which will decide the next line of action for the struggle any time from now but from our sampled opinion of students, they want the struggle to continue, but in a diplomatic manner.

As earlier relayed to the University community that the Senate meeting of 15th August decided that the University has been re-opened and students are to resume the University on 24th August,2014 for academic activities to begin immediately. This was further confirmed to the leadership of the Union on official grounds.

In what seems to be the reflection of the emerging results of today's Osun gubernatorial poll statewide, the three Halls of Residence in Obafemi Awolowo University where elections were held recorded close figures for the top two parties.

The Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) and All Progressive Congress(APC) had to themselves two locations each except for the Staff school where APC had a slight edge. As at the time of this report, we are still trying to validate our figures with what the INEC officials have got in their records.

Below are the breakdowns of the Election Results for the two leading parties.

Awolowo Hall:    PDP 28 votes  :  APC 31 votes
Fajuyi Hall:        PDP 28 votes  :  APC 20 votes
SUB:                    PDP 47 votes  :  APC 26 votes
PG Hall:              PDP 47 votes  :  APC 50 votes
Staff School:       PDP 87 votes  :  APC 119 votes

Total:                   PDP 237 votes :  APC 246 votes


PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the official result from INEC but the results from our Observers on campus.

FROM THE LEADERSHIP OF THE UNION
(As At Today, 6th August 2014)

‘’ Most times, lie gets halfway the world before the truth manages to get its pants on ’’ - Winston Spencer Churchill

Since the autocratic closure of the school by the management on 18th June and Great Ife students left the barricades, the leadership of the Union has not failed in its duty of holding regular discussions to appraise matters. Today the leadership of the Union met to reappraise issues that concern the 2014 Parliamentary Session of the Union and the ongoing struggle against increment in school fee. Variety of matters were discussed ranging from the current state of the struggle and some germane administrative issues were holistically assessed especially the most recent of them. An encompassing resolution of the meeting was to give re-assurances to our students on our commitment to the struggle and to clear the air on all allegations levelled against the leadership of the union. Prominent issues discussed are:

ON RESUMPTION AND THE STRUGGLE AGAINST INCREMENT IN FEES:
Last week the University Senate was supposed to meet to decide on issues of the review of the fees, reopening of the school and resumption of students back to campus as well as other policies surrounding the fees among other issues but the meeting was inconclusive. Also the threatened commencement of late registration was not implemented by the management due to the efforts of the various mediating intermediaries and the constructive means the union used in prosecuting the matter. We commend the solidarity of students who maintained their stand with the Union. It is pertinent at this crucial point in history that we restate our commitment to the struggle and that we will continue to prosecute the struggle using constructive methodologies that will give the needed results as we had promised during our electioneering. Our methodologies led us to opening negotiation through mediators with the management where some concessions were gotten and the same got the management to agree to work study and instalmental payments for indigent students without leaving behind the review of the fees. We remain committed to the mandate which was given to us at election into various offices which the current saddening closure is not part of. We have been assured by our various mediators, bodies and individuals, that final resolution of all contentious issues is being achieved to achieve resumption this month. We have been and will continue to prosecute the struggle and run our administration within the ambit of this mandate of constructive and result-yielding methodologies of attending to issues.

ON THE RECENT RELEASE BY THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNION AND THE RECEIPT OF A BUS FROM SEN. IYIOLA OMISORE:
The leadership of the Union received with great amazement the release by the Vice President on the Union Facebook page on the evening of Monday, 4th August where she raised allegations against the remaining leadership of the Union on the receipt of a bus donated to the Union by Sen. Iyiola Omisore and the prosecution of the on-going struggle on the general. She claimed not to be aware of the issue of the bus at all.

It is pertinent to state here:

That the VP was in attendance at the meeting in May where the donor assured to intervene on the crisis and promised the donation of the bus and readiness to help the Union on other projects especially on the on-going struggle of hike in school fees. This was far back in May, no electioneering in view. She (Olori) expressed concern at another meeting of the Leadership on the delay of the bus as she hoped to use it in preparation for the orientation week which is incidental to her office since she was aware management would frustrate us with mobility because of our struggle. She also expressed joy at the arrival of the bus last week Thursday and even congratulated the President on the receipt of the Bus and DEMANDED for what to celebrate it with, only for her to come out the following Monday to express ignorance of the receipt of the bus. What a high level of hypocrisy and betrayal! The question that is still difficult for us to answer is: why is she doing this? Whose script is she acting out? She raised issues regarding externalised actions and why they were struck out, particularly the planned Ibadan action, the same reasons that struck out the Osogbo action is why the Ibadan action was struck out, these reasons ranging from the advice of our lawyers and advisers and Olori cannot claim not to be in the know of all these. In case the management fails to honour our invitation for dialogue and/or moves of our solidarising mediators, our attention was advised to be centred on the Abuja action because of the fact that Abuja is the seat of the Federal Government and and capable of yielding needed result for we have exhausted all that needed to be done both physically and strategically such as several press campaigns and mass sensitization we had. All resources and logistics are to be concentrated on this AND OLORI was made the grand strategist to plan/mobilise for the action due to her NANS connection. This she never did and never intimated the leadership, instead she was busy with her money making partisan-politics ventures. Since she couldn’t deliver on the Abuja action, she was called to divert attention to the day of the coming of the president Goodluck Jonathan in Ife. Her response was that ‘’she can’t be part of any protest, that she has an INEC job to do to raise cash and that she won’t waste her time fighting for any students who are catching their fun at home and have also gathered enough fund to pay their school fee’’. So who is deceiving who?

Well, we are not surprised because her unholy association with the Osun State NANS/JCC has been the shade in her eyes or how do we explain her involvement in the leafleteering at Ilesha and the rally for APC at Osogbo? Time they say is the ultimate judge!

In the leadership meeting preceding orientation week, it is the same way she prevailed on all other executive members to suspend actions to allow total concentration on her orientation programme only for her to appear later in public to blame us for the suspension. What a duplicity! Great Ife, the minute of the meeting is there for verification.

That the report of the meeting with Sen. Iyiola Omisore and the leadership of the Union with respect to the expected donation/intervention was mentioned at a congress of Great Ife students before the Orientation programme and NOBODY objected to it or requested that we reject the donation then (Olori inclusive), so why now? Where were all the self-acclaimed lovers of the image and sacredness of the Union and its traditions when this issues where presented at the congress? All those raising the issue of ‘’persona non grata’’ where were they then? The truth and falsity of the persona non grata issue will be a subject of another day. Great Ife our vigilance must be brought to play here so we don’t allow ourselves to be used as puns on the chessboard of political-mischief makers and rotunda messiahs.

That we didn’t go to Sen. Iyiola Omisore to beg for a Bus, he intercepted us at the palace of the Ooni (20th May, 2014) and promised to see the VC on our behalf the day after, it was after his meeting with the VC that he invited us to a meeting that was attended by the leadership of the Union, Olori inclusive, where he briefed us of the outcome of their meeting and promised to provide a bus to aid our mobility and subsequent struggles as a Union. This also was reported at the Congress.

That the Bus given to us is an unbranded and un-numbered brand new Bus. We did the branding on the Bus and wrote the inscription on it, if the inscription on it is the issue, it should be so stated. Not the hypocrisy, calumny, lies and deceit that is been peddled around.

Great Ife! You have now been obliged with information from both sides, we leave you with your conscience to decide just as we are still watching with keen interest the political drama being played on the social media and we will not allow anybody or group of individuals to super impose their selfish interest over the collective interest of Great Ife Students. We only avail you with the truth as you have a right to it. Union leadership remains one, Olori our constitutional wife inclusive for this trying period will surely pass over and the lips of truth shall be established forever.

Greatest IFE we remain committed to PROMPT RESUMPTION of our students back to the University campus and restoration of normalcy in the university as well as HOLISTIC RESOLUTION of all lingering matters being fallouts of the increment struggle. We have not deviated from the mandate we were given at our election into our various offices- the alternative to the status quo. On the security of the hope of the Nigerian child no matter his/her status and the path to a better Nigeria – EDUCATION we stand.

NB:
We hope the partisan-admins of this page will not delete this post and remove genuine students and their comments as you have been seen to be doing. Just yesterday, you still perpetrated the evil. We appeal that you desist from these infringement on students’ rights of expression for this group page is gradually losing credibility. God bless you! ...La lucha sigue!

As for the incoming Law students, you can take a cue from this statistics. It is going to be a competitive class no doubt.
