RIPPLES IN THE UNION

The past week has been one of turmoil for the Union as there seems to be efforts towards total checkmating of some excesses in the Union.

First was the suspension of the Speaker of the House of Representatives on grounds of misconduct and misappropriation of funds. The case, as at this time is still under investigation as the Committee set up to investigate the matter is yet to report back to the House.

Currently, there is another issue bordering on alleged misconduct, misappropriation of funds and mismanagement of Union's Property against the President of the Union, Comr. Chukwu Emmanuel. As it is constitutional, the House of Representatives which is the watchdog of the Union is slated to sit soon so as to decide on whether or not the allegations are worth investigation.

Thus, all eyes are on the Honourable Members of the House of Representatives to see the role they play in this case. As a matter of interest to the Union, we will keep you posted as regards the House sittings and resolutions on this and other matters.

FIRST YEAR ORIENTATION DAY 1

FIRST YEAR ORIENTATION DAY 1

It was a day of overwhelming joy for first year students of the university as they converged at Ekpo Convocation Arena for the orientation.
Truthfully, there has never been a first year orientation like we had it today as officials of the university administration were fully represented.
Presentations were made by various officials like the Director, Medical Services, Chief Security Officer, Mr. Nwachindu of History and International Studies, etc.

The program lasted from 9:00am to about 4:00pm and the students were well taken care of. You could see the joy in the Dean of Student Affairs Department as she happily provided for her students.
Also, the joy was extended to the boys at Franco Republic as they had their share of the meal for the event.

I want to personally thank the Dean of Student Affairs and her team of hardworking officials like the Senior Assistant Registrar of the Department among others. God bless you all richly.

To all first years, please remember that tomorrow is another day. Please remember that the orientation is both important and *COMPULSORY* for all first year students and it holds tomorrow as follows:

Date: Tuesday, December 6th, 2016
Venue: Ekpo Convocation Arena
Time: 8:00am

SPEAKER, HOUSE OF REPS SUSPENDED

SPEAKER, HOUSE OF REPS SUSPENDED

Following a notice of alleged misconduct served the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Emenike Victor C., the House of Representatives at her sitting on Monday, 5th December, 2016 at the Students' Union Building suspended the Speaker.

Also, a seven-man committee was set up after a recess by the House to investigate the matter and report back within 21 days.

Unfortunately however, there was serious interference by the Security Department of the University as security men came to disrupt the sitting on the premise that the security department was not notified about the meeting. All efforts to explain that it was an emergency which could go without such notifications met deaf ears.

Since the House had concluded all necessary matters on her agenda for the day, the sitting ended with members chanting solidarity songs as they dispersed.
We expect that the Committee set up to investigate the matter will report back as soon as possible.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE UNIQUE TWIN

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE UNIQUE TWIN

At first I got confused about their identity
It isn't easy spotting the difference between them
Met one in Biological Sciences and the other in the Social Sciences
To the other I said, "How about what we discussed earlier"
She looked at me, confused while I felt lost
Did she forget so soon?
What could be amiss?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AFRICAN DREAM!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A MAN OF HOPE

Sincere apologies for serving this late.
It would have been postponed but my conscience won't let me.

He is full of life
Full of hope
A friendly young man with great visions and aspirations
Coordinated in all he does
Sure representing Political Science is not an easy task but like a friend, his smiles do not fade.

He is a blessing to this generation and his tall dreams inspire us.
God bless the day the day we met bro.
May He add more years to your life and more achievements to your years.

Happy Birthday Nwachukwu Oliver Chisom

Ad multos annos!!!
