Lilly001: Saw Dis @ One of UI student site

For those who left some foodstuffs behind
in school and those who are home to bring
back some more, that may not be the
smartest thing UI management expects
from you.
Cooking in halls of residence is one of the
various issues for which management
expressed grave concern for and has thus
announced expulsion as its effort to protect
that concern.
NO COOKING STOVE! NO ELECTRIC COOKER!
NO GAS COOKER! In fact, NO COOKER!
Although the possibility of students living
totally on cafeteria is most impossible than
management ability to detect and prosecute
defaulters, managements preparedness to
attempt the latter is not at all on
participants of Tuesday’s meeting. That
student leaders present then were not able
to create a compromise for students is
disheartening.
More so, management announces intension
of fencing off all halls of residence. Given
that a similar exercise was carried out
earlier this year, many have agreed that the
new proposed exercise will now involve
brick/block fences and not the iron nets
used earlier.
The nature of the 2012/2013 academic
session is becoming hazy. What will
students do?
wetin be this again ooooo, so they expect us to dey live on cafeteria...please lemme know more coz I don buy my foodstuffs already

g.instinct:
Zik Hall, a republic within UI
The next time you come across a well-dressed
young man arguing vehemently and threatening to
do battle with a bus conductor in Lagos, don’t walk
away like most people do. Wait till the fight is over
and ask the young man this question: Are you a
Zikite? In eight out of 10 cases, the guy would be a
graduate of the University of Ibadan who was
"unfortunate" to be offered accommodation in the
institution’s most popular hall of residence.
Zikites, as residents of University of Ibadan’s
Nnamdi Azikiwe Hall are addressed, are known for
their uncompromising stand against injustice.
However, they sometimes take their activism too
far and that’s why the institution’s central
administration has consistently branded the Hall as
a "haven of thugs and notorious elements".
I’m a Zikite and forever will be one. Having
graduated from UI last year, I must admit that I
miss living in Zik Hall. The hall is a replica of the
Kalakuta Republic, and Fela would not have
hesitated in making it an extension of his liberal
kingdom, were he to be alive. Don’t get me wrong,
please. The activities of Zikites do not come near
what obtained on Gbemisola Street. Though Zik Hall
is a place of contrasts, its residents respect the
beliefs of one another.
It is a hall where Christians will be praying and
someone with a lit cigarette (and sometimes a roll
of hemp) between his fingers will walk by and
greetings would be exchanged. The Moslems wake
up early, do their prayers and head back to their
rooms to devour pots of beans with their
roommates who are Christians, Buddhists etc.
Though the Hall has been labeled a den of rebels, it
is a nice place to live in. Nice in the sense that you
can’t be oppressed in Zik Hall. The Hall has a
unique culture that is strictly observed and valued
by true Zikites. Unlike some other Halls of
Residence where students lord it over one another,
you are a freeborn in Zik Hall. It is a place where
100 level students and finalists see themselves as
comrades, rather than trying to subdue one another.
When you’re broke as a Zikite, all you need do is to
pick up your spoon and enter any of the 253 rooms
in the Hall. You will come out smiling with the
hunger getting conquered.
Have you heard of the word "Zikism"? Zikism is the
philosophy that defines the lifestyle of residents of
Zik Hall. Zikites are an unusual lot, I must admit.
The Hall’s geographical location on the UI campus
does not help matters. It is very close to the
university’s Zoological garden, so Zikites enjoy the
queer privilege of being woken up daily by the roars
of the zoo’s lion. When some baboons escaped from
the zoo in 2001, they naturally came to Zik Hall and
Zikites were on hand to catch and return them to
their enclosure. People have attributed the strange
behaviour of Zikites to the proximity of the Hall to
the Zoological Garden.
You need to be around when Zikites hold their
yearly carnival. Brilliant students would stay away
from their books for some hours to show the
university community their weird attributes. They
dress up as ghosts and zombies (remember Michael
Jackson’s Thriller?), masquerades, Ifa and Sango
priests, Count Dracula, Okija shine priests (with
plastic human skulls tied round their necks)
professors, madmen, pastors and Imams, etc. They
would move round the campus, dancing to music
supplied by a hired band and the Hall’s supporters
club. The Zik Hall carnival is always a sight to
behold with residents of the university’s other halls
of residence being held spellbound by the tantrums
of their course mates.
Writing comprehensively on Zik Hall could lead to
writing a Ph.D. thesis. However, it should be noted
that the hall breeds great men. Call them what you
want, but Zikites are intelligent, resourceful, law
abiding and God fearing. Right from its inception in
the 60s, Zik Hall has continued to produce men that
have done the nation proud. The list includes Pastor
W.F. Kumuyi, Mutiu Adepoju, Dimeji Lawal, Oba
Wole Amele (councilor Balogun of the village
Headmaster series), Major General Victor Odeka,
Chief Dayo Abatan, the late activist, Dr Kumolu
Johnson, amongst others. Anytime you are on the UI
campus, try and take a cab to the Hall referred to as
the heartbeat of the university – Nnamdi Azikiwe
Hall. It is the abode of unpretentious
undergraduates. GREATEST ZIKITES!!!
love your review about Zik hall, I'm a new student been offered accommodation @ Kuti, who knows anything nice about Kuti oooo?.[color=#990000][/color]

For those of you who think it's fake wait there and keeping surfing the net when I resume work, for you who think I'm jobless that's for your mind ooo, But if you think it's true, I also have someone at Taraba state who says they've even stopped the processimg for now, so I think the test is an individual state thing. Goodluck.

The test actually took place last friday, there are up to 300 candidates, but the test is short and simple. For those asking for the number that sent the text, the text was sent by bulk sms with the name NPC.
