Ajayi Crowther University VC Shuts School After Students Poured Him Water by TheVictorious(m): 6:37pm On Apr 11, 2017
Professor Dapo Folorunsho Asaju, Vice Chancellor of Ajayi Crowther University, ACU, Oyo State, has ordered that the school be shut.

Prof Asaju’s directive may not be unconnected to a physical assault on him by male students at the weekend.

A 300L student of the institution on condition of anonymity told DAILY POST Monday afternoon that the VC has equally ordered disciplinary action against the students.


They are to appear on Tuesday before the Students Disciplinary Committee (SDC).

Trouble started last Friday when some male students of ‘Ibadan Hostel’ and ‘JA (Joseph Adetiloye) Hostel’ allegedly fought over a female student.

The VC was said to have directed internal security personnel to put the situation under control before it escalated.


“When security staff got there, the guys rather than stop the commotion continued,” the source told our correspondent.

“Some students then poured water on the security personnel.

“Word got to the VC who decided to personally intervene. On his arrival, the students got violent and said he should leave.

“As the situation got tensed, some yet-to-be-identified poured water and thrash on him.


“Prof Asaju was so angry that he cursed them and vowed to take action.

“Again on Sunday during church service, some students whose phones were seized disrupted service in protest.

“The VC got up and said since the it appeared students were getting out of control, he would shut the school and punish any one indicted in recent incidents being investigated by the SDC”.

Responding to DAILY POST enquiry, Shina Bello, Deputy Bursar (Admin) denied any plan to shut the school.

“I’m not aware of any assault on the VC. The school is not in session and students who have no genuine reason to be around should normally be in their homes”.

Less than 10 minutes after his denial, our source forwarded a text sent to all students by the VC, Prof Asaju.

Really. Even though I subscribe to thorough discipline and punishment for uncultured and regrettable acts as such but I don't think it is good to shut down the school. You can't shut down a whole school over issues like this. If you do so, you make the whole school to suffer for the action of one individual. Serious schools must try as much as possible not to halt academic activities. Especially when it's a private school like this, what is their selling point? As a new private school for what single reason should a prospective Jambite with good grades choose them over other schools, especially their state and federal counterparts. I really think they should rethink!

Exactly what I'm saying about putting discipline in place, but I still however continue to maintain maintain that that can be done without bringing academic activities to a halt. A working system is supposed to be higher than every individual, including the VC.

However the decision was taken. They should reconsider such action, maybe not now but in case of future similar occurence. Like I said before, schools should try as much as possible not to halt academic activities for any reason. Particularly a new private university like this. What is their strong selling point? They are sending out negative impression.

Some students and their unrefined attitude should not be taken lightly. What if the VC who's the highest authority in the cadre of school administration was drenched in some harmful chemical agent. Would some people be contesting the decision to temporarily shut down the school or pray that the culprits are brought to book and the VC recovers rapidly? This is gross indiscipline and should be treated very seriously.

A group of wretched punks soaked the VC like eba in okro, not just some junior lecturer. I think that was the best reaction because like the news says, "some yet to be identified persons" are responsible. What would you have done if you were in that position?

Are you sure you are Nigerian? Comments and this kind of logic don't usually come from the average Nigerian. Seriously, are you one? If so, you need to get out of that country. They will dull you brain/mind over time.

Very soon we will need to shut down the whole country. Things are going from bad to worse by the day.
The youth lack discipline, hope and direction.
The leaders lack patriotism, competence, morals and legitimacy.
The Nation is doomed.
