BEFORE YOU COME FOR CLEARANCE (I):

This series is for new and incoming students of the University. In
this series, I will be sharing with you information you need as you
await the announcement of resumption date which will be the beginning
of the process of clearance for admission. The aim here is to make
your clearance process as stress-free as possible so you may resume
lectures with your colleagues at the right time.

DOCUMENTATION
The first point for consideration is DOCUMENTATION. This is important
because there are certain documents you need to have so as to avoid
running here and there and making unnecessary expenses while your
mates are putting finishing touches to their clearance. If you are
well armed with these, your clearance may be as stress-free as just
walking into an office and walking out. From my experience, original
copies of certain documents are meant to be handy. Here they are:

VERY IMPORTANT AND URGENT!!! The Article Every Nigerian from the SOUTH Needs to Read

I am writing this post with a lot of caution and trepidation. I have
never subscribed to ethnic chauvinism and I actually detest being
labelled as a tribal bigot. I am usually very careful because I have
friends and colleagues from every part of the nation and some of my
best friends are not even from my side of the country. However, recent
events are making me to have a deeper reflection and I wish we-
Southerners in this
instance- can have some kind of introspection. Out of 25 appointments
made so far, 18 are from the North, 3 are from the South West, 4 are
from the South South while the South East has ZERO appointments. A
tweet which I saw today stated that "southerners are only competent
when it's time for elections but northerners are competent in terms of
governance" and this made the following thoughts run through my mind:
1. Only Southerners have been accusing fellow Southerners of
corruption. Oshiomole has been attacking Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as if
Ngozi turned down his marriage proposal. The same Oshiomole tried to
make nonsense of Akinwumi Adeshina's successes in the agriculture
sector. Ambode tried to pull Fashola down and successfully smeared him
with stains.

Presidential Candidate Kidnapped as AUCHI POLY Holds SUG Elections

The Students' Union Government (SUG) of the
Federal Polytechnic, Auchi (AUCHI POLY) in Edo
State has held its election amid intimidation and
violence. One of the two presidential candidates in the
election, David Utibe of the Department of
Computer Science, was kidnapped by unknown
hoodlums a few days to the election. David, who was kidnapped with others, was
released on the day of the manifesto. He had
bandage on his arm and walked with the aid of
crutches. The school authorities are investigating the
incident, which prevented David from carrying
on with his campaign. Despite the violence and pressure from
students, the Auchi Polytechnic Electoral
Commission (APECO) did not postpone the
election, clearing the way for David's rival
Joseph Iroghama, an HND 1 Accountancy
student, to intensify his campaign.
