Rymzo's Advice: STOP CONFUSING UNN ASPIRANTS

In order to help keep aspirantsfrom getting into trouble, Rymzo took to his facebook profile to advise both aspirants and those who are eager to get patronage by exciting the aspirants with fake news.
His update on Thursday, 7th May, 2015 reads: "Recently, I started receiving messages from UNN aspirants asking me if UNN pume form is on sale and where they can get it. The other day, one guy called me asking me what time does he have his own exam, another asked me to help her out, that she has gone to UBA to buy UNN pume scratch card and they said its not there and so on. Some are telling me they heard or saw it online that UNN cuts 180 for her pume, some said they heard 200 and so on.

DOS Defies the Orders of the House of Representatives!!!

The Director of Socials, Student Union Government has decided to go ahead with the Obudu Cattle Ranch Get-Away scheduled to hold today, May 7th, 2015 inspite of the orders of the House of Representatives to suspend the event pending further investigations. In a swift response to the suspension, called it a rumour, encouraging all who have indicated interest to still come our for the event.
The House of Representatives had last night (Wednesday, 6th May, 2015) during an emergency meeting told the Director of Socials to suspend the planned event pending further investigations. However, as at the time of filing this report, the bus conveying students to Obudu Cattle Ranch had left the university premises. We are yet to get the reaction of the Speaker, House of Representative or that of any other member of the House on the development but a memo made available to hostels over the night has it that if the Director of Socials goes ahead with the planned event, he risks being suspended.
