OrlandoOwoh:
OAU, Ile-Ife (then University of Ife) started in the Nigerian School of Arts and Science, Ibadan, which together with those in Kaduna and Enugu, were wrapped up. The new University of Ife started in the buildings occupied by the school. It was when OAU left Ibadan that The Poly, Ibadan took the structures.

Thanks jare OrlandoOwoh

RAO1:
The Polytechnic, Ibadan

Im sorry jare...THE ONLY POLYTECHNIC IDENTIFY WITH ARTICLE ''THE''

Holmes07:
Nor be only poly Ibadan... U didn't even mention yabatech or Fed poly Ibadan.

OAU started from Poly Ibadan ......check history

The same reason why Polytechnic Ibadan is a great Polytechnic

People stood by while a Mozambican man, Emmanuel Sithole, was cornered, stabbed in the heart and left to die. This happened yesterday in Johannesburg and yes, he died from his wounds. Killed just for being from another African country.. and the story told by the journalist who witnessed this brutal stabbing is heartbreaking! See more photos and read the full story from Times Live.


The brutal death of Emmanuel Sithole
As told by Beauregard Tromp and James Oatway for Timeslive.co.za:

Shortly before 7am yesterday April 18th, Sunday Times journalists were in Alexandra township, near Sandton, speaking to shop owners who had their businesses looted overnight. Children played, people walked the streets, some stopped to gawk at the carnage from the night before. Then this happened ...

In a gutter in Alexandra a Mozambican man stopped and lay down. The gash to his chest meant he could go no further.
At the day clinic less than 100m away they could not help him. The doctor scheduled to be on duty did not show up because he was a foreigner and feared being a victim of xenophobia.
It began on Friday night when mobs blockaded Arkwright Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares in Alexandra, with rubble and burning tyres. Foreign-owned shops' roofs were ripped open and metal gates torn away as looters went on the rampage.
Outside one spaza shop, a man in a black corduroy jacket and red shirt was walking along the road.
Suddenly a young man dressed in a grey tracksuit jacket beat him over the head with a wrench. The red-shirt man tried to fend off the blows, his arms raised. He stumbled back, falling into rubbish strewn by the roadside. The blows with the wrench rained down. Then the bludgeoning stopped and the man with the wrench moved away.

"Are we safe here?" asked a South African woman watching the attack.
The man in the red shirt got up. Now another man with a beige spottie approached, holding an okapi knife high above his head. Again, the man in the red shirt raised his hands, pleading for mercy. But his pleas were in vain. He was stabbed ... again and again.
The two grappled and fell to the floor. The man with the wrench returned. Finally, a lanky young man sprinted towards the man among the rubbish, kicking him in the head. The young man pulled a butcher's knife. A man in a black leather jacket who had discouraged the attack grabbed the wrist with the butcher's knife. The attackers fled.
The red-shirt man tried to get up but fell. Finally he made it to his feet. Feebly, he walked up the road.
Do you know why they attacked you? Who are you? Where are you from, we asked him.
He turned his head towards the questions fired at him, his face pleading. He said nothing. His shirt was drenched, a 2cm gash in his chest.

Metres further he stumbled and lay down in the gutter. He struggled to sit up and fell down
"Help me get him into the car. Help me, please," said photographer James Oatway, looking around at the men gathered around him. One stepped forward, reluctantly.
Up the road, at Alexandra Day Clinic, nurses did what they could. There was no doctor; he would have to be taken to Edenvale Hospital.

Along the way the man was flailing wildly, sitting up, lying down, wincing with pain. The wound to his chest was gushing now.

At Edenvale Hospital a lone gurney stood at the entrance. The porters sat in a room with tinted windows. Oatway pleaded for help. The man in the car was critical, he said.

Slowly one porter rose and scribbled in a book. Then the other, both now ambling towards the hospital entrance. Inside the car the red-shirt man looked lifeless.
"He's dead. We can't take him," one porter pronounced.
There was no pulse. Then a gag reflex. He's alive.

Inside the ICU, doctors compressed his chest, massaging his heart. After nearly seven minutes a ventilator was used. Shortly after 9am Emmanuel Sithole was pronounced dead. He was Mozambican. The stab wound to his chest had penetrated his heart.

In his pockets, R285 and 10c in change and a cellphone. His phone would ensure he did not die nameless.

On his wrist, three armbands read: "United for Bafana."

u can list your own

1. In Jonathan, we have seen a gentleman, a graceful personality and a great leader: Leaders are known in times of crisis and how they manage situations, conceding defeat and extending a hand of cooperation to his opponent.

2. In Buhari, we have seen FOCUS in the face of insults, abuses and provocation, and CONSISTENCY; not accepting defeat after three failures. A lesson on tenacity.

3. In Orubebe, we have seen what a good man, from a good home should not be, notwithstanding the pressure of the unfolding scenario.

4. In Jega, we have seen a crisis manager per excellence, cool, calm, organized and detailed, refusing to allow organised distractions to truncate the dawn of a new day.

5. In Christendom, we have seen overzealous church leaders who became openly partisan and divisive, forgetting that congregations probably have a better spiritual leading & a right to choose different political leanings, notwithstanding their personal inclination and convictions.

6. In Pastor Adeboye, we have seen how a spiritual father should exercise restrain in words and deeds, beyond his personal opinion, even when it involved a close associate, knowing fully well that followers are not robots to issue digital instructions by remote devices. We have also seen some Nigerian Christians who believed more in human prophets than CHRIST. How disappointed are they now...

Not that we are happy Jonathan lost the election; but if he had won, Witches and Wizards, Guru Maharaji, TB Joshua and other self styled prophets that prophesied that Jonathan would win come what may, would have attributed to themselves the glory that belongs to God alone. I hope our out-going president & others like him will now learn to put their TRUST IN GOD ALONE.

7. In the Political arena we have seen typical Nigerian politicians, talking from the two sides of the mouth; the likes of: FFunnyK, Okupe, Asari and Fayose.
God is a jealous God!

8. To the us christians who believe Buhari will turn everyone to muslims; God is alive and ruleth in the affairs of men. He alone is in charge of Nigeria. This country is part of God's end time plan. Buhari is not a messiah but a leader, Only GOD cannot fail, He puts one up, and brings another down. let's continue to pray for the President-elect to succeed, while thanking President Jonathan
for making it happen.

9. In Oba of lagos, we have seen what palace decorum should not be, and how threats, intimidation, and manipulation have become helpless and impotent in an informed and digital world proudly supported by the social media. This is in total contrast to what the Awujale of Ijebuland told Mr. President.

Am proud to be identified with the latter!

10. To our northern Muslim brethren a lesson to be learnt from President Jonathan's conceding of defeat without heating up the polity and to know how to behave in a civilised society. If a northern son looses in a future election, he should be a statesman like Jonathan and should not start killing and maiming innocent civilians. Nigeria is not an animal kingdom!

11. To families who ran out of the country, and those who relocated to the ancestral homes, we learn how not to allow fear and terror powered by the predictions of the enemies of this nation, to determine their course of action. Faith in God coupled with the power of prayer has seen us through.

And finally...

12. From Jagaban BAT, we can learn how vision and strategy can turn an insignificant political party into a mega party.

Applying the principles of 48 laws of Power, together with the wisdom of other men, coupled with lessons from the Kennedy family and the emerging Bush family, we see the emergence of a political maestro moving from the regional to the centre!

The Word says "..learn from the fig tree..".
