Education › Unilorin Reject Terrorist Tag by Kamelot77(op): 10:39pm On Sep 25, 2017 |
The attention of the management of the University of Ilorin has been drawn to media publications on Monday in which our peace-loving and pace-setting University was described as a “terrorist organisation” by the University of Ibadan Branch Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Dr. Ayodeji Omole. This is unfortunate, especially coming from someone who is expected to know the gravity of such appellation. While the University is not ready to join issues with this fellow, who appears hell bent to drag the good names that Unilorin has made for itself over the years, in the mud, we want to make it abundantly clear that the disciplinary action recently taken by the University against two of its staff, which is the basis for his outburst, followed due process and it was in line with the laid down rules and regulations as contained in the University’s Conditions of Service. We wonder when an internal affair of the University of Ilorin has now become the business of the University of Ibadan ASUU Chairman. We recall that this is the same fellow that recently alleged that the University of Ilorin had increased its tuition fees and shamefacedly took the false news to the media. As a supposed senior member of the academia, we expect Dr Omole to be circumspect in his usage of words. How can you describe a University that is the toast of most Nigerian parents and the darling of admission seekers as a terrorist organisation? The University of Ilorin is proud of its records of achievement as the most peaceful university in the country with an unbroken record of stable academic calendar and an unmatched expansion of academic programmes. These are attributes that have made the University the most sought after institution of higher learning in the country since 2013. Surely, an institution like this that is actively promoting the nation’s educational ideals and fostering peace and stability cannot be rightly described as a terrorist organisation, except perhaps, Omole has a new definition for the word! Signed Kunle Akogun Head, Corporate Affairs University of Ilorin.

SHTFguy: Long before "one nijeriya" and the advent of air travel, how did northern Muslims get to go to mecca?
Aisha Buhari has been going to mecca twice yearly since she packed into Aso Rock and we all know who is picking up her bills.
But my concerns are not with Aisha wandering the gold bazaars of mecca in the guise of pilgrimage rather I will want to know in the scenario where northern Nigeria was not tied to the south and air travel did not exist, how will the Muslims be going to mecca?
There off course where Muslims who embarked on the long arduous journey to mecca back then and it was usually by foot or at best on the back of a camel.
Apart from the dangers associated with trekking, the muslim pilgrim had to factor huge logistics involved in trekking to allah's shrine.
Historical narratives have it that, just like early Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem, (which Islam adopted like basically every other thing else in Islam), a would be pilgrim to mecca depended for his subsidence on the goodwill of people he will encounter on his way to mecca.
It was thus no easy endeavour. So what will be the fate of millions of northerners now if there was no air travel? Will they still embark on a year-long journey on foot braving the elements and wild to get to Mecca?
It's good enough that aid travel has been invented and is now the major means of transportation but why then is the Federal govt and states doling out subsidies for a religious venture that is not even obligatory?
Apart from subsidising air tickets and feeding of pilgrims the current FG even doled out a subsidy on forex for would be pilgrims at the direct detriment of other forex applicants. Is this not madness?
The case of govt even organising any useless pilgrimage must be rescinded and all govt boards setup for any useless pilgrimage excersice be it for musluns,or Christians or Sango must be discontinued asap!
