Still Dont Be Suprised If Some Of Our Politicians Comes Out With This Claim:

"My Certificate Was Burned Down During The 2021 Fire Incident In Cape Town University, South Africa"

To top it all, fire emergency units will tell you their equipments are worn out and broken down.

Ovulo:
Most book in that library are piece of lies concocted by the Europeans which is one of their great tools in enslaving Africa...

South Africa

Even in the inferno, the school is beautiful ditto the surrounding areas. South Africa is really developed and clean, no Nigerian city or school comes close.

University of Cape Town on Sunday, 18 April 2021

The University of Cape Town (UCT) says all students on its main campus were being evacuated by emergency services support staff on Sunday as a runaway wildfire spread onto the campus grounds.

In a statement, after the outbreak of a fire which gutted a section of the Rhodes Memorial restaurant, UCT said students were taken to predetermined locations.

UCT spokesperson Elijah Moholola said reports that the university was evacuating hydrogen tanks from its science labs could not be confirmed.

“We don’t have any info at this point and won't be getting it any moment soon as teams are working at various aspects of containing the fire. As soon as we are able to share further info, we will do so and respond to specific questions,” he said.

Visuals of UCT students leaving their residences flooded social media with many Cape Town residents offering affected students transport, food and assistance.

The vegetation fire started just above Philip Kgosana Drive on Table Mountain and was soon being fought by three helicopters water-bombing from the air in aid of firefighting crews on the ground from the City of Cape Town, Working on Fire, and Table Mountain National Park.

Several people taking videos of the fire while hiking on the mountain slopes behind Table Mountain described the speed at which the fire was moving.

Videos appeared to show the fire already having reached the University of Cape Town grounds by midday as students evacuated across sports fields under a blanket of thick smoke.

If it were to be Nigeria we wouldn't even have the helicopters with which to attack the fire from the air. The water trucks would arrive at the scene with only water they can physically carry and then when it runs out in 30mins, they would stand around helplessly while the fire rages - since we don't have fire hydrants anywhere in Nigeria (except maybe Abuja)

The good side
In Nigeria

Students will be rejoicing

First class awaits them all

This is either guilty conscience talking ( probably from the way the entire world views you) , or you really love attention and want to put yourself at the centre of everything.What does a burning university got to do with Nigerians?

So sad! UCT has been sending me emails regularly as I once enquired about PhD studies there. A very nice and organized school. I hope it is rebuilt to same or better standard.

You should ask the Bantu negroe who brought the news to a Nigerian forum.

I know we are the big brother of Africa but are you putting this news here for us to do what exactly?

Still planning, hoping and wishing. Lack of funds is the major constraint. Maybe I'll get a scholarship someday, with funding for an assitantship
