The country have succeeded in wasting all Una life.

Kwantinue.

Don't you know your way to Ministry of Education? Or was I the one you voted for? When you see Adamu Adamu and Rasheed you can raise your objections to them rather than raving at a total stranger.

People that have no use in life would continue to talk senselessly. The Oyedepo you talk about has 23,000 people in his employment in Nigeria alone. Even when you write a good CV, cover letter blah blah blah you still need favour or connection to get a job in Nigeria. Now if you don't know no king or politician who else would you look up to for help? Yes God. Oyedepo and his church has done his own bit by teaching people on employability during workshops and seminars. He has now crowned it all by creating a church program dedicated to employment and this two gutter filled beings have nothing positive to say that throw insults like the latte-sipping idiots that they are.

TheVictorious I think its important that individual persons should be made accountable for their misdeeds in CU, because if care isn't taken something worse would happen on that campus that could truly disable the university. Many workers at the Student Affairs are too selfish to be concerned about how their barbaric actions portrays on the university and are officially covered by the university brand. But by specifically calling out these erring staff at CU I hope there would be reluctance on the side of any staff to do something that could potentially put him/her in negative light.

NwaAmaikpe:



May God give you more energy to shave all their hairs.

No responsible male student carries bushy hair or dreadlocks.
I stand to be corrected.
Technically speaking; a bushy haired student is a blockhead because the hair prevents wisdom from reaching their brain.

Shame on any parent whose son has a bushy hair.

Decency and morality must be instilled by force since parents have failed in their primary responsibility of raising decent kids.
I wish this could be tagged an OPERATION SHAVE THEM ALL and extended to our churches and police roadblocks.

I hear over 60% of males in Nigeria below 32 now wear dreadlocks or overgrown hair.

What is wrong with this level of hair? I hope all is well with you.
Already, no university in this country can boast of a more well dressed student community as CU and the likes. Therefore the DSA shaved their heads for a very different reason. The shaving was definitely out of spite and not a result of non conformance to dress code. And he unfortunately carried out his spiteful action in addition to putting the students at risk.
I have discovered that when you drag Covenant as an institution only folks in the Alumni, Student community would suffer for it. Therefore let this man carry his own cross so next time the next DSA would seriously think before doing something that could potentially destroy his career.

Face Of The Man Who Ordered The Forceful Shaving Of Covenant University Students

To help the Nigerian education sector grow, it is important that we call out individuals who oppress in the system. Calling out universities and individuals won't always cut it, as there are usually faces behind every oppressive regime - it is important that those oppressive faces are called out, shamed and sanctioned appropriately.

Following the revelations of the disgraceful and unfortunate incidence where student were forcefully shaved, other Nigerian students from other universities have come out to tell their stories of oppression in their various universities. But unfortunately calling out the universities is not enough but doing so and publicly shaming individuals involved in such despicable act through the power of social media.

The CU management has denied ever giving this individual the authority to carry out that despicable punishment of shaving students hair.

This is Dr. Timothy Aneke the Dean Of Student Affairs of Covenant university who instructed the forceful shaving of students hair with an unsterilized clipper. He is a graduate of University Of Uyo(BSc), University of Ibadan(MSc) and Covenant University (PhD) and a former staff of Igbinedion University.

See as this nigga draw budget for me like say hin dey work for ministry of budget and National planning...
How myself and my dad decide to spend his money is none of your business, I'm still shocked as to why our expenditure is any of your concern.
You speak like only covenant university has unemployed graduates...or do you mean to say everyone from UI, UNIBEN, OAU is gainfully employed?

I hear American University of Nigeria is good, but you still cant compare them to CU... Davido couldn't have gotten away with his actions if it were in CU; so again CU isnt on the same level as other private schools...
When I wrote my WAEC in Kaduna, I sat with people who couldn't spell their names...some of them are now in public unis(now I guess that's enough reason to generalize and say all public schools admit academically poor students)

And about the Dublin stuff, it's definitely(most likely) sponsored by the CFA institute... And even your excuse of money being the hindering factor to OAU is a slap on the face of OAU, NIGERIA and her useless government.
If they were that good; at least they could have won at the national level and then created a GoFundMe page which myself and other well meaning people wouldn't have minded donating to...so shut up and stop making silly excuses for them like you're their PR Officer.

You shouldn't say what you have no idea of...if the iPods and iPads only communicates within the school premises, then how did I chat with my friend today? how did you get to see the shaved guys?

What's the name of the private school you attended?

Have you bought your Post Jamb form?

I wouldn't mind if the tear can split northern and southern Nigeria.

SammieJayh:
Bros, a guy in my street got admitted to uniben this year, and he clearly runsed it.

That your guy in CU who is a quack deserves what he got...but you cant use him as the benchmark for judging all CU graduates...I've also met my fair share of dummies from public universities... Mind you, some CU students are presently in Dublin for the CFA Institute competition after they beat OAU and the likes at the national level.
I can't be unemployed after school for any reason(not because I attended CU but because I know what I'm worth and what I'm capable of doing)... Show me JUST one person out of the 10k+ CU eagles who feels and can prove that the school is a waste of money and it destroyed his/her life then I'll quit my pursuit of CU.
How my father invests his money is none of your business...and its 800k per session not per semester.
Who says phones aren't allowed over there, I chatted with my friend in CU this morning...if phones aren't allowed, then how did you get to see the pictures of the guys with shaved heads?

And yes I want the easy life where I earn what I work for and not what one narcissistic old man/woman feels I'm worth.
Isn't that the life every Nigerian student deserves?
God didn't send me to the earth to suffer...I do not know about you though.

Young and realistic is the phrase you meant to use; not young and native(naive).

Pls don't mind that guy o. There is no way CU could have admitted a student with less than 210 in the minimum for engineering in the past few years.......

I'm no longer very hopeful about the creation of religious-themed universities. Congratulations nonetheless. Lalasticlala

The overzealousness is really coming from the staff and not necessarily the church.

This particular one got on your nerve HigherEd.

I just think that our brand of Christianity in Nigeria is very loveless and strange. And I am beginning to see and get tired of it myself.


The privileges and goodwill the early missionaries enjoyed due to their selflessness and love is being eroded today by several misdeeds of the Nigerian church. That lack of self regulation has put members constantly on defense either trying to defend the pastors, schools or the church as a whole.

I remembered how one of my friends who had to drop out of Covenant for academic reasons promised not to go to church again, since according to him all the services he has attended compulsorily in CU was going to compensate for a life of no more church. He left for Canada to continue schooling. But I doubt the guy has ever stepped into church ever since...

Covenant is not the first Christian school so they should calm down abeg. Yonsei is one of the three most reputable universities in South Korea and is a Christian university but the school focuses on sharing, community service and volunteering... How about CU starts focusing on love and tolerance too, because Christianity without love is unrecognizable.

writerights:
I'm convinced there are a lot of other inhumane acts being committed by the school every day but would never see the light of the day. Knowing this is because it affects a large number of the students' populace.

I think if CU would continue in this grand commando style, It needs to enforce a complete clamp down on social media access and activities by her students, else, CU may be sitting on a huge keg of gun powder.

There is actually no justification at all for this barbaric act.

Let Dangote finish his school first then that keg of gunpowder would be like an IED. They should try clamping social media - do you think anyone would go? Because you would have to drag with chains to a university where social media is prohibited.

SammieJayh:
On seeing this news today, I was indifferent at first.

But on a second thought, I feel this is wrong on a whole lot of levels. Out of 100+ students, a few will definitely have some form of hair infection or a transmittable disease(HIV, hepatitis, tinea captis, keloid, bumps), so this is bad health wise and I'm already scared of applying to CU because I won't take this under any circumstance.


But it all boils down to the lawless country we live in.
I remember my days in Nigerian Navy Secondary School and how the hair of defaulters were designed with scissors...I know for sure that my cousins still face the same insult in that school till now...(and yes, the school goes unchecked; because 'it's a military school'). This same unhealthy and ridiculous treatment still continues in so many schools all over Nigeria.

I stand with Covenant University, but not today...

Thank you. I'm sure they are already feeling the tweetstorm though.

CodeTemplar:
How does shaving of hair relate to bible?
I will wait for more info as this sound too good to be true.

I have seen the video myself. This time around Covenant would be taught an important lesson. I know someone has forwarded the video to Webometrics, Times Higher and the international red cross and so they can exclude Covenant from subsequent rankings as protest for this kind of behavior. The President of Webometrics just confirmed an hour ago that he received such video though he recommended the students get "local authorities" involved.

Covenant offers excellent academic education but we must call out every nonsensical behaviour in the school.

Covenant University's Track Record Of Abuse And The Irresponsibility Of National Universities Commission

Covenant University today has become the epitome of religious oppression, mockery and is proof of how terrible the Nigerian educational space can get if not well regulated.

Today we witnessed possibly hundreds of the so called "Kings and Queens of Hebron" having their hair scrapped to humiliate and shame them for not bringing bibles to Church. Worse still, is that the instrument used in scrapping the hair of possibly hundreds of students was not safe as they use it on students after students without visibly sterilizing it.

It saddens me that an institution with so much potential to become one of Africa's best universities has decided to go this path of oppression and senselessness and the National Universities Commission is complicit in allowing this evil happen unchecked, by failing to protect the rights of Nigerian students or creating regulations preventing them from oppressing students.

The irresponsibility of NUC not only shows in their lack of desire to protect students of private universities but even students of public universities who have also been subjected to ridiculous treatments in their universities

As a nation we've failed our people in the public education system and we are equally failing our people in the private educational system. We've failed to check the educational activities of our religious organizations not minding the oppression and sometimes, indoctrination that happens silently in those organizations. We've made higher education an all comers affair without putting in regulations binding church or islamic universities from doing just as they like. I hope we would not wake up someday to realise an entire segment of the population of the country indoctrinated thanks to our nonchalance.

It is time for NUC to do better by creating a comprehensive guideline for Private universities which would prevent students from being forced to go to chapel or mosques, attend prayers or unofficial meetings and equally scrutinize the handbooks of all universities making sure it doesn't violate the constitutional rights of students.

For purpose of emphasis and clarity there is no section of Covenant University's handbook of 2013-2017 where it is written that students hair can be scrapped with an unsterilized equipment because students refused to bring bibles to church.

This is also a wakeup call to students of Covenant university to challenge Covenant over their non constitutional behavior in a federal high court over the public health risks they were subjected to by Covenant University. By HigherEd




Lalasticlala pls help move to fp

Freeze is nothing but a conflict entrepreneur. His brain is largely vestigial and only useful to the extent of condemning pastors and the church. But the didinrin does not understand that the more you continue to beat this issue the more people become allergic to your campaign. Go and learn work from those who were professionals at slandering pastors like Alexander Dowie or Woodworth Ether of the 1800s and study how their lives ended.

A man has shared his testimony which possibly involves several individuals and hospitals; doctors, nurses, families, friends. The man who shared the testimony himself is not hiding anywhere. If you doubt the testimony you can go make your investigations and then come online with your findings rather than spewing your usual garbage from a virus infected brain. And no, even the apostles raised some people from the dead but could not raise everyone that died....
