Surely, a review must be made on the attitudes of the students and the management of this institution. It is crystal clear that the time for a quick resolution has arisen as regards the present atmosphere in the school. Let me say emphatically that the comfort of man lies in the hands of others and it should therefore be noted that he that wants no peace must surely have no peace. It is time for the entire students of Osun State University to rise up against all forms of extortions and anti-students’ policies from the so called inconsiderate management that has insisted on breaking our various hearts and that of our parents.
Inarguably, we are the representatives from our various homes and we are responsible for any decision made. There are some facts that must be known to the masses before it can be easily justified that our actions are borne out of threats, frustration, negligence and most of all a wholly form of isolation suffered by every student of this citadel of learning.
Firstly, we study in a school where payments are made by students for some certain facilities which are not provided. Over the years, a total amount of #10000 has been compelled on us for a malfunctioning ICT and an inadequate or let me say never provided games as parts that make up our tuition fees. We should not neglect the fact that many of us have spent more than three semesters in this school whereby the ICT only provides a locked WI-FI connection which password remains undisclosed to us throughout the semester. I can say it emphatically that it is only if Jesus Christ would come back tomorrow that possibly these facilities would be made available. And they say we shouldn’t talk when the 400level students cannot boast of using the ICT facilities since their days in the University, when we are deprived of our rights, when we are yet to receive what we have been paying for over the semesters. Then…..why shouldn’t we protest?
Students as a matter of fact, often fulfill their own part by sitting for examinations at the end of each semester. It is another course for the management to make a prompt release of the results. Osun State University students suffer a lot when it comes to the aspect of checking results after exams. The management on their own part has continuously ignored the pain caused by a very late release of results. Though they also believe that our results determine our future in the next course registration but yet, they still fail to recognize and subscribe to the fact that late release of results easily delays course registration. Fresh students that were given late registration and change in syllabus have hampered early registration of courses for example. It seems this concept of I DON’T CARE attitude has formed and continued to flow as blood in their veins. The management never cares for us; whether their policies favour us or not, they do not care. Then if that should be the case, why should we not protest?
Now considering the economic status of the country at large during this moment, it is so embarrassing that the management of this afore mentioned institution heartlessly closed the portal as early as a month and few days after resumption. We had thought that the portal would be reopened for a fortnight time as often observed rather it shocked us so suddenly when the announcement that the portal would be reopened but still on a platform of #10,000 fine. After all forms of unsuccessful intellectual approaches that we took for the reversal of this decision, the management still chose to be at loggerhead with us despite the fact that our parents are deprived of their salaries by various state governors. Is it our fault that our parents wok in Nigeria?
They have just desired on their own to put us in pain by decreeing #10,000 late registration penalty fee. I can’t just envisage the ideas of our management towards this. How do they expect someone that has been striving to pay the actual fee to get the fine? From where do they want a student who finds it hard to feed three times a day to get #10,000? What should a student sponsoring him or her do? How do they expect a student who lost his or her parent along the race to cope? What do they wish for orphans on campus? What should be the fates of the entire students of Osun State University? And they say we should not say a word against injustice, and then….why should we not protest?
