Unilag Management Finally Bow To Pressure To Reinstate Rusticated Students

The management of the University of Lagos has reconsider it's decision on the rustication of the two students from the institution. It was gathered that one of the rusticated students, Lawrence Success is visually impaired. And this has enjoined public sympathy from both within and outside the nation.
The two students are both graduate from the department of political science. The institution had given the reason behind the rustication for the contribution of the students to the peaceful protest held back in 2015 on the school campus while they where still students.
Another source revealed that there might be more reasons for the unjust decision of the management being that Lawrence was the president of his department and Ochuba was his vice while on campus. And while Lawrence was crying out to the management to live up to its responsibilities, Ochuba was playing an active role of writing different articles on the failures of the school management as well. A similar case is the rustication of Adeyeye Olorunfemi, who had took to his social media to expose the failures of Prof Rahmon Bello led administration of the school in an article.
The pressure from both the struggle of the students activists and different civil right movement group has been seen to be the force behind the submission of the management to reinstate the rusticated graduates.

Confrontation; But where Are The Other Cs Of Aluta

In the recent time, I have taken a keen interest in observing the success of Students Unionism is Nigeria and I have no record to put together of achievement of this association. The question should be:Why is students unions failing in all institutions and at the national level?   In the olden days, whenever the students send a signal of raising aluta force against any person(s) or constituted authority, irrespective of the cabal involved in the oppression, they begin to shiver and sought for a way of calming the infuriating mood in the students and quickly reach for a solution to please their agitations. And if this is not done, the oppressors stand to lose a lot by the force of the aluta struggle. Unfortunately, in our days, the more we raise aluta force, the worse we begin to lose our weight of victory. What was in the unionism of those days that has been lost in the recent time? Let me relate the eight months scenario in LAUTECH and the STAFEC struggle of TASUED to this note,

The Hitting Fire At TASUED

To silent the critics who have been throwing accusations at me for not saying anything on the issue of Save TASUED And Fund Education Coalition(STAFEC), I will declare my stance here and make my opinions known. Of all messages have received, the one which is of interest to me the most is the words of one Mr. FABULOUS which says "If you remain silent on the part of justice, you are already on the side of the oppressors", and I wouldn't deny that am only responding because of this and I'm going to give my response according to his words.   As a students, it should interest me to understand the situation of things before jumping into action so the captive won't end up as the captors' machinery. To start with, I will outline the cause of the grievance of the students -The increment in Acceptance Fee from #30,000 To #40,000 -School fees #76,500 -Increment of Vocational Studies Fee from #1000 to #25,000 -#10,100 tax clearance which students are enforced to pa
