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

OFFICE OF THE SENATE PRESIDENCY
THE SENATE
UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA
NSUKKA

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

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

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.
