Oga, reason well now. Not everyone follows blindly. Imagine using ur money to buy a substandard jersey, all in d name of wanting to support. To watch on TV na like going to d embassy for interview, bad pitch, recording with my phone is better than what they showed on tv and going to stadium risking my life. Haba, at least let d management provide d basic. Eyimba fc dey try sha

You are wrong. Which stadium has a bad pitch? Do u know that the Nigerian league jersey is of high quality? My bro the Nigeria league of yesterday is different from what we have now. Please be sure of what you say

I was in 100 level at that time. We supposed to have chm 101 test in the morning and i lived in angola hall. I was a sleep, the scaring noise woke everyone up. That day, we ran in the bush behind angola opposite that market between angola and moz hall (forgotten the name). Infact it was later we knew that it was a lady that the cultist used to harassed us. Guys na that day i know say angola hall to awo hall far. It was a bad experience

It was a tragic experience on that unforgettable terrific midnight. Everyone stood the chance of being killed. I jumped out of my room ONNLY with nika in my body as gun shots were being heard from here and there and we were running hecter sceta, some ran to straight bullets and we're hit. That was my most terrifying moment in life, never wish to remember it again!

i was in angola hall then as 100 level, my room was block K room 6. I/we ran into the bush with looking at where l/we were going to

AFRIKA was unlucky because he was dead drunk and had slept in his room when the attack struck

Pedagogue:
My account of events before and after the sad day is on many threads.


To sum it up in the shortest summary possible, July 10, 1999 was about 'Freedom'. The people that invaded Ife and their cohorts wanted their own warped idea of 'Freedom'.

Although they won the battle (because they silenced the voice of Afrika), they however lost the war.

From that day on, Ife became totally Free from all semblances of cultism. The invaders and their allies underestimated the collective will of Great Ife students.

Let it be told, every time, that IFE remains the only Tertiary University in Nigeris where students collectively conquered cultism.

plz don't say great ife but say greatest ife

I was in part 3 of my medical school when this happened. I also lived in Awo hall, it happened life & direct. There was total panicking on campus. One brillant part 4 medical student was also killed in Fajuyi hall in that attack. Ojo buruku esu gbomi mu. I respect the leadership of then students Union President- Legacy. Where for God sake is legacy?

infact my bro i Have been asking were LEGACY where about is. its well

chimaobinelson:
i dont realy blame the student-witnesses for failing to appear before the court, how can they when their security isnt guarranteed, they shud have been masked,
Setting up such longtime prison term,or capital punishment can help deter ppl from that vermin "cultism"...RIP to the dead

Guy ask question about what u don't know. The SUG of that time led by LEGACY, AFRIKA, were fearless. The school authority led by Pro WALE OMOLE knew that if the students goverment were called as witness then the case would have been lost by the Cult so that decided to rush the case by not calling for witness at all.

ucheo:
Every year this story will resurface again. Is it being told to remind the families of the dead ones or brush the ego of the cultist.?
In the 90s and early 2000 stories of killings and unfortunate death filled every where mostly in the east and south south of which this story is way below the ladder of the wanton destructions caused .
This story is painting of a pix where some of our young ones will start liking cultist life rather than the opposite.
Lets give the dead a break to RIP.

i guess you were young when the incident happened. Why this story will be ever green in ife is (1) it mark the end of cultism in ife. Don't get me wrong, there are still Cult in ife but not like the way it was before the incident. (2) ife is too security conscious and so the attack was like a shock to the school. (3) those remembering it are students at that time whose life changed after the attack. Eg myself, after the attack i see cultism as not just crime but worst than evil, now my nephews are been adviced by me against cultism. Even my kids though still young but i ensure i know their movements. So let the remembrance continue for life

That day was the dat i saw hell on earth. We were supposed to have chm 101 test in the morning of that incident. I was in 100 level at that time, I lived in angola hall while in awo hall there was kegite in incitation going on of which AFRIKA was to be initiated . Guys did u know that the cultist that was put to handle angola guys was a lady? Omo see guys running into the bush without looking back. The medical student that was Hit by a stray bullet was painful because he bleeded to death when no one could save him. His blood changed the colour of the fruit Tree in the medical building from green to red. I beg as i am writing its like yesterday and tears flowing from my eyes, my kids and wife here with me consolling me. Our falling heros rest well!!! OF THE GREATEST IFEEEEEE!!!!!!! ALUTA CONTINUA...

It has been said that the use of any language in itself was immaterial, but in its consequences, or in view of the commands of the Church, it is by no means immaterial. The Church has wisely ordered the Latin tongue only to be used in the Mass and in the administration of the Sacraments, for several reasons. 1. Latin was the language used by St. Peter when he first said Mass at Rome. It was the language in which that Prince of the Apostles drew up the Liturgy which, together with the knowledge of the Gospel, he or his successors the Popes imparted to the different peoples of Italy, France, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Hungary, and Poland. 2. From the time of the Apostles down, Latin has invariably been used at the altar through the western parts of Christendom, though their inhabitants very frequently did not understand the language. The Catholic Church, through an aversion to innovations, carefully continues to celebrate her Liturgy in that same tongue which apostolic men and saints have used for a similar purpose during more than eighteen centuries. 3. Unchangeable dogmas require an unchangeable language. The Catholic Church cannot change, because it is the Church of God, Who is unchangeable; consequently the language of the Church must also be unchangeable. 4. Mass is said in Latin because a universal Church requires a universal language. The Catholic Church is the same in every clime, in every nation, and consequently its language must be always and everywhere the same, to secure uniformity in her service. 5. Variety of languages is a punishment, a consequence of sin; it was inflicted by God that the human race might be dispersed over the face of the earth. The holy Church, the immaculate Spouse of Jesus Christ, has been established for the express purpose of destroying sin and uniting all mankind; consequently she must everywhere speak the same language. 6. It is a fact well known that the meaning of the words is changed in the course of time by everyday usage. Words which once had a good meaning are now used in a vulgar or ludicrous sense. The Church, enlightened by the Holy Ghost, has chosen a language which is not liable to such changes. The sermons and instructions, and in short everything that is addressed directly to the people, are all in the language of the country; even the prayers of the Mass are translated in almost every Catholic prayerbook, so that there can be no disadvantage to the Catholic worshipper in the fact that the Mass is celebrated in the Latin tongue; especially as the pastors of the Church are very careful to comply with the injunctions of the Council of Trent, to instruct their flocks on the nature of that great Sacrifice, and to explain to them in what manner they should accompany the officiating priest with prayers and devotions best adapted to every portion of the Mass. In the second place, faithful Catholics know well that the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the self-same sacrifice that Jesus Christ offered to His Father on the Cross, because both the Priest and the Victim are the same; their faith in the Real Presence is abundantly sufficient to enkindle devotion in their hearts, and to excite in their souls appropriate acts of adoration, thanksgiving and repentance, though they may not understand the prayers which the priest is uttering. For this reason it is that the faithful, pressed by different wants, go to the adorable mysteries of the Mass, never thinking of the language in which they are celebrated. Some, moved by the force of calamities, hasten thither to lay their sorrows at the feet of Jesus. Others go to ask for some grace and special mercy, knowing that the heavenly Father can refuse nothing to His Son. Many feel constrained to fly thither to proclaim their gratitude, and to pour forth the love of a thankful heart, knowing that there is nothing so worthy of being offered to God as the sacred Body and Blood of the eternal Victim. More press forward to give glory to God and to honor His saints, for in the celebration of these mysteries of love alone can we pay worthy homage to His adorable Majesty, while we bear witness to our reverence for those who served Him. Lastly, men hasten to Mass on the wings of charity and compassion, for it is there that they can hope to obtain salvation for the living and rest for the dead. Thus to the thirsty pilgrims through the rocks of the desert do the fountains of water appear. Thus do the generation of those who seek justice received benediction from the Lord and mercy from God their Savior.

DrinkWater10:
Yes but they want these players to play the last inconsequential AFCON qualifiers match against Tanzania , and to also form the back bone of our FIFA WCQualifier squad.

this is LMC deals with laliga not nff with laliga
: LMC is suppose to be for our best players in the Nigerian professional league both nigerians and other Nationals.
The deal is suppose to be used to develop our league not the national team
