THE RESOLUTIONS OF THE LEADERSHIP OF
THE UNION AFTER ITS MEETING TODAY
FRIDAY THE 11TH JULY,2014.
Today, the leadership of the Union met to
holistically assess all matters that have
occurred ever since the closure of the
Varsity on 18th June,2014. Our struggle
ever since we have maintained its
intellectual posture and legal coloration,
we have ensured the total avoidance of
violent actions and any actions that can be
identified as violent up till now is against
the order of the Union.
The holy books proposed the injunction of
counting our blessings and seeing the
doings of the lord. In line with this we
make bold to recount some of the effects
of our intellectual struggle; unlike in the
recent history, we protested against
closure of school even in the face of
intimidating-lo oking policemen. We
attracted and still attracting public
sympathy and formidable personalties and
bodies. The University management had to
swallow its pride to even employ our
tactics such as embarking on leafleteering
in market places, pasting of posters
everywhere on campus and in Ife town
just because our campaign has continued
to subdue them. We even gathered that
the VC has been subjected to a lot of
summons from higher authority. Our
constructivenes s has obstructed all plots
to proscribe the Union. The dignity of the
union restored and sustained beyond
expectations. We the current generation of
Great Ife stunned our critics and skeptics!
For about seven hours the union
leadership engaged in an holistic and
dialectical analysis of the issue of
increment, reopening of the campus,
matters arising and the yearnings of Great
IFE students. Accordingly, the resolutions
of the Union are as follows:
> On Mysterious Fire Outbreak in Awo Hall:
The fire outbreak in Awo we consider a
blast due to the magnitude of the havoc
wrecked in the room. To this end we have
called on the Federal Government, the SSS,
the Police Area Command and other
security agencies to conduct a thorough
and independent investigation of the
matter.
>On Closure of SUB on Thursday,10th July:
We consider this an affront on our right to
freedom of association. However, as legally
minded individuals we have decided not to
face illegality with illegality and as such we
gave the management a 24-hour
ultimatum to re-open the building else we
take legitimate steps to ensure its
reopening. We reject any form of violence
or confrontation with security men on the
campus as this action by some individuals
is against the order of the Union. Ours is
not to engage in any fruitless power tussle
with any individual or superiority contest
as the case may be but to engage matters
as intellectuals and contemporary
unionists. You don't give your opponent
the opportunity to change the issue to
tissue.
>On the Invitation to Panel and the death
of one of our legal counsel, Barr. Bamidele
Aturu:
We continue to mourn the demise of our
legal counsel whose demise news got to
us alongside the invitation to appear
before an Investigation Panel on
Wednesday,16th July,2014. No mind
should be perturbed as we still have other
legal counsel. We are currently consulting
them. We can never be intimidated.
>On proposed rally on Tuesday,15th
July,2014 at Ibadan:
the Union has decided to lay to rest this
proposed action due to the reasons that
the public have enough sensitization on
the matter and the fact that the effect of
our struggle at this point in time should
not only be targetted at the mass of the
citizens but the University management
and the Federal Government. All our
resources concentrated on abuja struggle.
>On July 16th Commencement of Late
Registration and Opening of Discussion
with the University management And
Opening of the School:
The Secretariat of the Union has effected
the submission of letters to the University
management to open discussions on this
issue based on arguments that the closure
is not in the interest of either the
management or the students, we
understand the fact that the closure of the
school will affect the rating of the school
which is a pride for both students and
management,the closure of the school is of
great disadvantage to individuals whose
livelihood depends on the running of the
varsity and the obvious idleness of
students at this period in the nation is
dangerous. We remain open to discussions
based on mutual respect not on
intimidation on all matters rumbling
presently in the varsity system. A
negotiating team has been constituted for
we are coming, not only from issue-based
angle, but also from solution-inform ed
angle. In the letter,we also demanded that
the deadline be extended till after the
resolution of the current imbroglio. This
letter we copied all security agencies
especially the SSS to intimate it of another
impending crisis if our democratic and
peace-driven requests are not met. All the
letters have been dispatched by hand and/
or DHL as at the time of writing this report.
To our students, staff members,
stakeholders, mediators and the general
public, the response of the management to
this letter will now show to the world who
between the management and the
students is heinously adamant and not
ready for peace and progress of the
varsity.
>Call for Intervention of the new Minister
of Education in OAU matter:
The leadership of the Union resolved to
demand the immediate intervention of the
new Minister of Education,Ibrah im
Shekarau with an ultimatum of a week. A
failure to intervene within a week will
mean a mass mobilization to the Ministry's
Secretariat in Abuja for an "Operation
Occupy Ministry of Education until our
Demands are met". Our actions now must
be channelled to the seat of power. If
students of the polytechnic and colleges
can do it and get the Ministers attention,
we too can do it better! SSS and the Police
have been formally informed. A facilitating
team has been set up to do the planning.
Enough is enough!
Greatest IFE! Articulate IFE! Nobody should
force you to pay. The management tactic is
unjustified and remains a duress. Let it be
noted that no matter how much they want
to force students to pay, crisis will still
reoccur when students resume. Thus we
must first resolve the matter on the table
to have a lasting peace. Let's not make a
fatal mistake. In conclusion, we reiterate
our commitment. We remain undaunted in
this struggle. Our commitment is to
achieve peace but peace with justice!
NIL DESPERANDUM AMANDLA AWETU... Never
Despair for Nothing Shall Discourage Us!!!

here.... Frontpage

HARDUBUY: 6. hardubuy. Hopefully, By Allahs grace.
@ papindinho, when will OAU resume?

yet to be made known by the management bro. Let's not derail the thread sire.


Maa salam

Wizeboy: No ultimatum, we are just trying to know the number of people that will be in attendance in order to plan well for the event.

You can even come without signifying but it will be much better to signify in order to make it more easy for planning.

Maa Salam

You can count me in then.
May Allah spare our lives till and after that time.

Bi salaam

Choose is the present tense and chose remains the past tense of choose.


Learning continues...

THERE
There is the opposite of Here. It means “in that place” not here.
A: Where is my book? – B: It’s over there.

I will look for a hotel to stay when I arrive there.
There is/There are = to show that
something exists.
There is a book on the table
There are many countries in Europe.

THEIR
Their is a possessive adjective which is used before a noun. It shows possession, that
something belongs to them.

Their house is big.

All of their friends were crazy.

The children put their books in their school bags.

The words loose and lose are mixed up in writing; for some reason, many people write loose when they really mean lose.
But there’s no reason to lose your mind worrying about this, just lose the extra o!

Loose
Loose is an adjective, the opposite of tightor contained.
My shoes are loose
I have a loose tooth
There’s a dog running loose in the
street

Lose
Lose is a verb that means to suffer the loss of, to miss.
I win! You lose!
Don’t lose your keys
I never lose bets.

The Bottom Line
Simple carelessness leads people to write loose when they mean lose. Just remember that lose has one o, and loose has two. Start with loose, lose an o, and what do you get? Lose!

www.elearnenglishlanguage.com/blog/english-mistakes/loose-vs-lose/

lose - /luːz/

Wizeboy: Kindly signify your attendance in order to include your name.

I stay in Ibadan and there is half chance of my coming.

Is there any ultimatum for interest signification?

Nobody is perfect though but it has been more like a trait or call it a culture the way people mis-spell words nowadays.

First, it was lose and loose then I've started seeing chose being mis-used as choose. Their and there later joined the team. Whatever happened to good reading though. The most disheartening part is that, these spelling errors are made by some of the epistle writers too who are avid readers and writers and that's sure going to influence some of their readers' spelling habit.

Some designers keep abusing the two words too. I could remember seeing I've got nothing to loose boldly written on a shirt. Gosh! That ought to be lose. And that's how it continues growing viral...

Urrgh

Jazakumulahu Khaeran Wizeboy.. Now clearer.
