Good morning, all. Thank you for lending your voices to this discussion. While it is a fact that that we live in a free society where you have the right to your opinion, it should be noted as well that there is right to fair hearing.

I happen to be in a position to be able to check through the University Database and I can confirm that the person who came up with this write-up is not a student of the university. The name Tolu Ayomide does not come up in any of the queries I attempted.

That said, I wouldn't expect that the writer would put his real name on that write up, either the person is still a student as the person claims or has been expelled.

Be that as it may, Crawford University is a faith-based institution and as common to mist of such institutions, discipline is usually taken with higher form of seriousness rather than the cases in the secular institutions.

It is quite sad that students (and even staff memebers) who complain about the level of strictness of the school on certain matters actually signed to abide by those rules while coming in fresh. My point is that we all knew what we were coming in for. (I have witnessed a case where an aspiring student said she could not accept the admission because the laws were not much for her.)

The writer talked about the VC. Well, I do not think that majority of the members of the Crawford community would discribe the VC as greedy and wicked. Rather most of the students would honestly say that he is passionate about the well-being of the students, something that most of them would not say of some other people in the school. The fact that he drives a used 2008 GL430 doesn't describe the VC as wicked or greedy, considering that I may not be aware of any VC in the country whose status car is used vehicle.

It is one thing not to be happy with the school, it is however, IMO, unfair to vent your anger through a form of blackmail. If you would post the picture of a building under construction and call it your hostel, and not bother to show the picture of brand new hostels as well, I will sadly discribe your intentions as flawed.

My finally submission here is that the writer is most likely one of the former students who, due to certa hiin offences such as narcotics, theft, sneaking of the school grounds, and the like, was expelled from the school. And this appears like the best way to get back at the school that dare say, "Sorry, we can not deal with you anymore," after a well structured investigation and trial.

Thank you all for hearing my opinion on this matter.
