HAPPY BIRTHDAY OBIANUDO!!!

I met this Nsukka Boy sometime in 2014. Like Daniella would always tell me, in our first year, you never existed. I didn't know him until I was privileged to watch his dribbling skills on the field during one of the FASA Tournaments.
Like play like play, he led TEAM ATSA to victory during the last FASA TOURNAMENT (2015/2016 edition), thereby giving us hope of better days after the feats of Hon. Ugwuoke Charles and his men.
That aside, he remains a silent achiever who despite his leadership qualities is never self-imposing. He does not make much noise, and despite being a reservoir of wisdom and tact, he will always ask you, "what do you think about this". He obviously derives joy in learning, even from his juniors.
Leading ATSA for a whole academic session was not easy, yet you weathered the storm and scaled through. I dare say we know of the many challenges you had in your days as the ATSA President both from staff and students. Yet, you never stopped smiling, neither did you stop being a man of peace.

There is so much to say, so much to pour out but for lack of time and space, and for fear of boring my readers, lemme rest it with this: I BLESS THE DAY WE MET AND THE LORD WHO MADE OUR PATH CROSS.
May the Almighty continue to lead you to greater heights in Jesus name.

Happy Birthday Hon. Eze Kingsley Udoka (Kinky)
OBIANUDO!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AKPAKA THE WANDERER

Today marks the birth of an independent man, a man of visionary leadership. His records stand the test of time. A name that will not be easily forgotten in the history of UNN student politics.
A pharmacist, a superlion with a great passion for his profession. The few times I spent with you sir left a lasting impact in my life, especially politically.
May the Lord who has thus far brought you never leave you till He has fulfilled every promise He made concerning your life.

Happy Birthday Comr.  Akpaka Basil Nchekwube

FINAL OPENING OF THE PORTAL FOR HOSTEL ALLOCATION: WHAT YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

FINAL OPENING OF THE PORTAL FOR HOSTEL ALLOCATION: WHAT YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND

The university has announced that Tuesday, 4th October, 2016 the portal will be opened for the last time for hostel allocation. Find the details here:

http://www.unn.edu.ng/unn-undergraduate-accommodation-information-ii-nsukka-campus/

However, it is important you understand that the above date is the final opening until all rooms are allocated. What this means is that the situation where allocation is paused from time to time will not occur from Tuesday, 10:00am. Thus, it is important you log in to apply for bedspace from the said date. Remember, it is on a first come, first served basis. If it takes a whole week for the available bed spaces to get exhausted ( which I doubt considering the number of students competing for the available spaces), then the portal will remain open till then.

We have not forgotten the outstanding issue with the school fees schedule of l levels for which we requested a stop on payment of school fees. We are however hopeful that this error will be corrected over the weekend and you will be able to pay school fees from next week.
On your part, we request that you crosscheck with your portal from time to time to see if the change has been effected (for those who are yet to pay school fees).
We still request that you report any issue as promptly as possible as we cannot do much without information flowing from your end.

IMPORTANT CLARIFICATIONS

IMPORTANT CLARIFICATIONS

Sequel to our instruction to students to stop payment of school fees, and as a result of our request for receipts of students, we were bombarded with so many receipts we had to stop downloading.
For the sake of clarifications, I wish to inform all that the purpose was just to get enough evidences of our claim to present to the ICT unit of the university. It was not for any purpose of refund to those who have paid as we cannot guarantee that at the moment.
We have submitted our complaints and the ICT director has assured us he would rectify it as soon as possible. When this is done, payment of school fees will continue.
We reiterate that we cannot promise a refund of any sort to those who have thus far paid. If it comes, fine but if not, we sincerely apologize for the loss.

STOP PAYING SCHOOL FEES IMMEDIATELY!!!

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

URGENT AND VERY IMPORTANT: PLEASE STOP ALL FORMS OF SCHOOL FEES PAYMENT IMMEDIATELY

This is a clarion call to all Lions and Lionesses to put a hold to all forms of school fees payment immediately. Our attention has been drawn to some wrong calculations in the school fees of various students who have thus far paid. From their various calculations, the amount paid is more than what it ought to be with a difference of about N3,000.00 or more as the case may be for which there is no explanation on the school fees receipt. Based on this, we are taking necessary actions to the following effects:

1. Demand that the school fees schedule be uploaded on the university website as soon as possible as is the custom of the university.
2. That all wrong calculations on the school fees be corrected as soon as possible and the real amount updated on the student portals.

While we pursue this course, we plead with all students who are yet to pay school fees to relax and not be in a hurry to do so. However, if you have the mind and will to let go of the extra charges, feel free to go ahead with your payment.
For those who have thus far paid, we sincerely apologize for the error. We were never aware of it, and we cannot promise anything as regards a refund at the moment.
We are poised to serve you better and we are woking hard at it. Please do well to report any issues to us as soon as they are observed.

BEFORE YOU PAY SCHOOL FEES

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

BEFORE YOU PAY SCHOOL FEES

First I must commend the cooperation of the Lions and Lionesses as regards the issues we have been dealing with thus far. May the good Lord bless our struggle.
According to the promise made us as regards school feea schedule, it was meant to be online by close of work yesterday but up until this moment, we are yet to see it on the university portal. It was in expectation of this that we asked you not to pay school fees yet so as to avoid overpayment of any form as refund may not be possible.
However, considering the delay in uploading the school fees schedule online, we cannot continue to delay you on the matter. The following are ways to know if the amount you are about to pay as school fees is the right amount:
1. Check how much your predecessors paid as school fees.
2. Check the amount on the invoice you have generated.
3. The difference between the two should not be more than N2,500.00. If it is, there may be an error in the invoice you have generated. If it is not, then you are safe.
4. For those who have paid the exuberant price on the invoice they generated, sincere apologies for the error. Though I must sincerely tell you that a refund may never be possible except you are ready to walk the walk involved.

Please adhere strictly to this as we are doing our best to ensure things go as planned.

FOR THOSE HAVING ERROR MESSAGES AS REGARDS THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS AND HOSTEL ALLOCATION, please be patient as we sort out that too. However, if till now you are yet to get or activate your UNN email address, please do not bother trying to apply for hostel as you may never get.

God's blessings and safe trip as you all return to the Den.

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!

Ever since we made a post about our discussion with the university administration on the proposed increase in the school fees of final years, there have been mixed reactions and we understand your request for more. Of a truth, it was another victory for the Nigerian students and inasmuch as we are still on our toes to ensure the victory is complete, we considered it necessary to brief you on how far we have gone.
Now please understand that the charges stipulated for the Digital Certification has been scrapped, never to be paid for by anyone, even at the point of clearance. It is a forgotten issue. Hope you all understand that.
As for the convocation fee, the stipulated amount is N20,000.00 and we have successfully removed it from the school fees. However, while the expectation is that students will still pay for their convocation fees at the point of graduation, we are doing our best to ensure that the amount is reduced considerably.

Thus, we sincerely apologize for the mix up in the dissemination of the information earlier. All inconveniences are sincerely regretted.

ANOTHER VICTORY RECORDED!!!

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

ANOTHER VICTORY RECORDED!!!

This is to formally inform all Lions and Lionesses of our cooperative success in the struggle.
After series of meetings, delegations and negotiations, the university administration, decided to grant out request of totally removing the N31,500.00 added to the school fees for final years. We owe it all to the wonderful Vice Chancellor, Prof. B. C. Ozumba who responded promptly to our distress call and acted immediately in favour of the Nigerian students.
The gist is, convocation fee was increased to N20,000.00 and the Digital Certificate was meant to cost N11,500.00. Our request was that they be removed from the school fees and graduating students should pay for them during clearance. This was granted by the Vice Chancellor though he explained the reasons for the decision to include them in the school fees.
With the latest development, all final year students should have the expected amount on their invoices when they generate them for school fees payment. Also, the school fees schedule will be published any time soon to reflect these decisions. We thank the Lord God Almighty from Whom all good things come for the strength and courage to work, and we thank you all for your prayers, support and cooperation.

We wish to also reiterate that the Students' Union Government, led by Comr. Chukwu Emmanuel, is highly committed to your welfare and a peaceful academic environment for the benefit of all. All we ask is your continued support, prayers and cooperation, and together, we shall make our Union great again.

SPECIAL APPEAL TO ALL RETURNING STUDENTS

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

SPECIAL APPEAL TO ALL RETURNING STUDENTS

While we maintain our struggle for the final year students who are facing the unjust shock from the hike in their school fees, we wish to appeal to all returning students to join us in solidarity.
Consider this, if we lose this fight, it will remain a policy and soon it will be your turn whether you are in second year now or third. Thus, we appeal to all retuning students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and Enugu Campus to desist from paying school fees until this error is corrected. Let us all join hands to fight this once and for all.
If no student pays school fees until this course is settled, together we will celebrate our common victory.
TOGETHER, LET US SAY NO TO WHATEVER DIGITAL CERTIFICATE THAT WILL COST STUDENTS N31,500.00.
COS 101 and 304 has been all theory without practicals for years and yet students still buy compulsory textbooks.
CEDR has been all theory without practicals and we are still forced to buy compulsory textbooks.
Many of such abound and we are continually made to pay for things we do not enjoy.

As for the convocation fee of N10,000.00, students should pay for convocation when they have truly graduated. One can be in final year but end up not graduating with his colleagues. So why pay for convocation when at the beginning of your final year when you can always pay for it when you graduate.

Fellow students, this is our fight, not those of some persons somewhere.t
Join the fight by your prayers and cooperation, and together we will win by the grace of the Almighty.

Besides, there are still many errors with the whole school fees arrangements on the portal and if you pay more than you should, you cannot get a refund. Ask those who are still owed N4,000.00 since last year.

STUDENTS PRAY FOR US!!! Sincere Appeal from the SUG, UNN

STUDENTS PRAY FOR US!!! Sincere Appeal from the SUG, UNN

We have taken time to read the comments of many persons on social networks since we made public our findings about the university's subtle plan to increase school fees for final year students. The comments have been a mixture of hope and indifference, while some repose their hope in the ability of the SUG others display a mind of defeat with the belief that nothing may be done about it. On this note we should all be reminded that what gives result in all our struggles, even ALUTA, is neither hardwork nor prayers alone but a good combination of the two.
The motto of my primary school reads: WORK AND PRAY. This is the only thing that brings success. On this note, I wish to remind us of the initial plan to add some money to our school fees for UNN BUSINESS SCHOOL and how together we all fought and won that. When I say we, I mean the SUG and the students. While we sat at the negotiating tables, you supported us in your prayers from home and together we won. I must confess, that victory is still a miracle till today, building up our testimonies for the D-Day.
This is another time like that. If you have tasted leadership anywhere, you will know how difficult it is to work and pray at the same time. This is where cooperation comes in. While we work for our common course, you pray for us and God shows us mercy by making our cooperate efforts to yield fruit.
Please do not be fainthearted at this time, so many things happening since we assumed office make it clear that the Lord God Almighty is on our side and He will not fail us, even in these trying times. In the same way, the SUG, led by Comr. Chukwu Emmanuel, has also promised not to fail you and we are working very hard at it, we therefore plead that you also not fail us by giving up too early and resigning to fate without a fight on your knees. That will be cowardice on your part.

BRACE UP LIONS AND LIONESSES!!!
This is not the time to be defeated. Remember, it is your mandate we carry and so your support and cooperation is needed. Together we shall do our best and where our strength and wisdom fails us, the grace, mercy and favour of God takes over, and who knows, another miracle may be closer than we expect.

ATTENTION ALL FINAL YEAR STUDENTS

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

ATTENTION ALL FINAL YEAR STUDENTS

This is a follow up of a post made previously on the exorbitant amount received by some final year students who tried generating their school fees invoices.
Further investigation into the matter revealed that the university has a plan to add an extra N31,500.00 for DIGITAL CERTIFICATION and CONVOCATION. This is the reason for the hike in the school fees for final year students.
However, on the part of the Students Union Government, it is clear we make it known to Nigerian Students that we are totally unaware of this plan neither were we consulted before it took effect. Thus, we plead with all concerned to exercise patience and not be in a hurry to make this payment. We will be meeting with the university administration soon on the matter and will relay the outcome to you.
On a normale, convocation fee is N10,000.00 with a N2,000.00 refund if you return your gown without issue. Thus, even if final years are to pay for convocation alongside their school fees, what justifies the remaining amount on the N31,500.00.

We wish to emphasize on the appeal by the Students' Union Government, led by Comr. Chukwu Emmanuel, to all finalists not to make any payments yet until we have corrected the issue and reported back to you accordingly.

Re: SCHOOL FEES FOR THE 2016/2017 ACADEMIC SESSION

Our attention has been drawn to the alarm raised by students who have tried generating invoice for school fees for this academic session. According to the report, the school fees invoice generated contained very exorbitant amounts for which there is no explanation.

In response to this, we wish to request all students to exercise patience as regards generation of invoice for school fees. There is every possibility that the ICT and Innovations Unit of the university is still updating these profiles and so errors will abound.
Another error is that of wrong levels, like a student who is meant to be in 300L seeing 400L instead.
There is also that possibility of you paying into last session's account.
All these are the reasons we request you be patient with the whole rush over school fees payment. The official school fees schedule is not yet published as is the custom of the university. Also, the university has discussed every decision as regards school fees and there is no plan to increase it, much less to the rate being posted on social networks.

We promise to keep you informed promptly as things unfold.

PROPOSED BUSINESS SCHOOL: DETAILS OF OUR MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION; THE UNTOLD STORY

OFFICE OF THE SENATE PRESIDENCY

PROPOSED BUSINESS SCHOOL: DETAILS OF OUR  MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION; THE UNTOLD STORY.

I Dist. Sen. Mbagwu Martins greet you all fellow Lions and Lionesses most fundamentally and doggedly. One of Nigerian's finest writer and the 1986 Nobel Prize for Literature winner, Prof. Wole Soyinka said and I quote,

"the man in me begins to fade away when I decide to keep quite and remain silent in the face of tyranny".

I come in peace and I'm here to tell you the untold and truthful story herein. Let me at this juncture us this veritable medium to express my profound gratitude to you all for your unalloyed and immense support thus far towards the Students Union Government especially the Legislative arm since the start of this administration sometimes in May 2016. I say a big thank you Lions and Lionesses.

However, I must say I am highly disappointed at the assertions of the Information Officer of SUG UNN as regards the details of the meeting between the SUG representatives and the representatives of the School Administration. The post which erroneously indicted me as to be an enemy of the students of this great university is highly untrue, misleading, derogatory, condemnable and should be jettisoned and ignored by all and sundry who meant well for the students of this great university. As called upon to attend the said meeting, I observed from the start of the meeting the fear in some us in making our views and demands known and concrete to the school administration's representative. For evidence sake, here is the summary a of all what transpired at the meeting;
*School Admin*: The program is really good and would be beneficial to the students, though we've seen your demands as stated but we are sorry to say it can't be made free of charge.

*SUG Reps*: Well sirs, it should be made free since you all said it is highly beneficial to we the students, please it should be made so at no cost on the part of the students or even if it has an attached cost, it should be made optional considering the harsh economic situation of the country.

*School Admin*: Not at all, it can't also be made optimal because making it optional wouldn't realize optimally any pool of fund which is one of its major objectives.

*Me*: On behalf of the Senate and the good students of the University of Nigeria, I wish to make my assertions, since it can't be made free nor made optional, there's no point being at loggerheads, it should be *SCRAPPED* and no further meetings upon meetings over what students are vehemently against should hold.

From the above conversation seen there in summary, it is crystal clear and could be seen that I stood earnestly for its SCRAPPING not even making it optional or even free as the case may be after the school had taken its stand. Whatever was in the previous post made my the Information officer was a clear misunderstanding of situation of things on his part. According to Section 51(F), subsection 1 of the New Constitution of the Student Union Government,

*" the Information Officer  should be responsible for giving due publicity to the activities of the Union with a view to projecting its group image"*

Not making posts that suggests witch hunting, character assassination and unnecessary upheaval in the Lion's deb which has been peaceful recently. We love the peaceful and conducive environment.

In conclusion, the SENATE is bent on doing its possible best to see to the yearnings and welfare of the students who elected us into office sometimes in April. Come to think of it,

How would I have made such statement in presence of the school admin and the SUG representatives?

Am I not also a student?

Is 15k or there about a small money to get at this point in time in this country?

Don't I know that first year students will pay for laptops and some second year students will continue their payment this year?

These are questions that are begging for answers for who believes that fallacious statement. I am not unaware of the situation of the country now and we as a union will see to the welfare of you all LIONS and LIONESSES.

As regards the Business school, I called the Dean of Students Affairs and told her the Senate's stand, I thank God that we are heading towards the end of it. It has been SCRAPPED TOTALLY.

THE SENATE IS WORKING
SUG IS WORKING
GOD IS IN CHARGE

I and my Distinguished Senators said No to the BUSINESS SCHOOL PROGRAM.

I thank you for your undivided attention and support, we shall all make it to the promise land. Amen.

ALUTA CONTINUA...!!!

Yours truly:
Dist. Sen. Martin Mbagwu
Senate President
University of Nigeria.

PROPOSED UNN BUSINESS SCHOOL: DETAILS OF OUR MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION

PROPOSED UNN BUSINESS SCHOOL: DETAILS OF OUR MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION

It was an impromptu meeting and in attendance were were representatives of the university administration, the executive and legislative arms of the SUG. The meeting was held in the office of the Dean, Student Affairs Department on Friday, 09/09/2016, and we tabled our resolution as regards the subject matter above. The resolution, for the records, remained as follows:
1. It should be offered to the students at no extra cost.
2. It should be made optional so whoever wants to take advantage of the program can do so at will, not by compulsion.
3. If none of the two above is acceptable, then it should be scrapped

Our stand was well noted by the representatives of the university and we were making progress until there was a hint of disharmony in our representation as the Senate President seemed to be speaking out of harmony with the stand of the Union. First he came up with the idea that it cannot be given to the students at no cost, then he added that it cannot be optional as they will not get enough patronage to foot the cost of running the program and paying off the professionals that will be involved.

Sensing we were already seen as not speaking with one voice, we had to excuse ourselves from the meeting, promising to get back to them next week, most probably on Wednesday after the public holidays.

Before then, we also suggested fusing of the idea into CEDR so as to make it purely practical instead of the theory it has been without achieving its aim. The re sponse was that it cannot be fused as the intricacies involved in curriculum change takes about 5years. Thus, we suggested the process of that change should be initiated so that probably in five years it will mature. It will be a duplication of courses and programmes running two entrepreneurship programmes at the same time, especially when it involves extra cost to the students who thus far have been paying so much as consolidated school fees without any form of accountability or good value for the money.

Whatever the outcome of our subsequent meetings will be duly communicated to you. Meanwhile, we still wish to solicit your prayers and moral support as it is God's favour that will make for an amicable resolution at the end of it all.

Re: ALLEGED ADDITION OF N16,000.00 TO THE SCHOOL FEES

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

Re: ALLEGED ADDITION OF N16,000.00 TO THE SCHOOL FEES

While we appreciate the fact that we are in an academic environment, and thus students are free to react to rumours and hearsays especially via social media, we also wish to encourage all well-meaning Lions and Lionesses to always confirm rumours before either sharing or making negative comments, especially as regards unpleasant rumours.

Here is what you need to know about the proposed addition to the school fees. The Students' Union Government was approached with a proposal for the establishment of an online program for students at the cost of N15,000.00 for each student. Considering the objectives of the programme and its benefits to the students we agreed that it is a laudable proposal but should either be made optional or totally forgotten. We understand the economic situation of the country and the many fees we have been paying as students to which any further addition will not be welcomed. This is our stand and we are doing our best to ensure it carries the day.
Deliberations on this have been ongoing and we have kept it from you because it was totally unnecessary to cause undue agitation to students while we worked. However, news about this was made public, and mixed up with a lot of wrong inclusions, thus making you believe the wrong things. Please note that we are doing our best to protect, not just your interest but ours as well since we are all students passing through the same challenges in Den.
Our demand to the proponent is as follows:
1. Make it optional
2. Add it to the university curriculum at no extra cost to the students or
3. Forget about it totally.

Whichever works of these options will be for the good of the students, and whatever the outcome of our deliberation will be communicated to you as promptly as possible.

Finally, we wish to solicit your earnest prayers as we continue to do our best to ensure that the mandate you have given to us does not suffer. The Students' Union Government, under the leadership of Comr. Chukwu Emmanuel is poised to serve you to the best of our efforts so you may be proud of your decision to entrust to us the protection of your interest.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR UNN DIRECT ENTRY APPLICANTS

OFFICE OF THE INFORMATION OFFICER
STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR UNN DIRECT ENTRY APPLICANTS

First, I must acknowledge the efforts of the Electronic Information Manager, Comr. Ada Monique and her able and ever vibrant assistant, Comr. Ezeoke Stanley Sympathy. Owing to their untiring efforts, I have made less posts and answered less calls in the past months. May God bless you two and the other members of the Information Crew, 2016/2017.

I decided to do this myself for no other reason but to clear the air on some misconceptions.
The usual thing about Direct Entry is that you apply to your choice university through JAMB. This application opens immediately after the usual application for UTME. For the forthcoming academic session, the application was in February, 2016. Those who applied will know what I mean. If you did and chose UNN as your choice university, then read on, if not, please note that there is only one option for you - applying next year.
For those that applied to UNN through JAMB, please read carefully. In the course of sending lists to various universities for admission consideration, JAMB also sends the list of DE applicants. Thus, it is most likely your names have been sent to UNN and so you need no further application to UNN.
The question now is WHAT NEXT?
The university is meant to conduct an oral interview for DE applicants but it is not always like that. From records, last two years (2014/2015) was the last time UNN conducted oral or any other form of screening for DE applicants before admission. Last year their names only came out in the course of publishing admission lists. Considering the calendar for the next academic session, there is high probability that there will be none this year either. However, if the university decides otherwise, rest assured we will inform you promptly.

Thus, if you have applied to UNN through JAMB's DE application, please reduce the pressure you mount on yourself and others. The university has not said anything about your case, and when it is decided, we will let you know.

Here is a wish of successful admission from we all at the INFORMATION OFFICE, STUDENTS' UNION GOVERNMENT, UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA, NSUKKA
