Great OOUites, Let us support our SUG to achieve. We should stop putting them under pressure. At several meetings attended by SUG, the issue of students on Leave of Absence(LOA) had always been mentioned requesting that they should be reinstated unconditionally. i am constrained to post this for the following reasons: - in the Nations of today, 18th September, 2014 the number of students on LOA was 3000 while SUG said 2000. Even with 2000, SUG was requested to bring forward the names and matric numbers of the affected students cos the University claimed that it didnt have such records. SUG did not have such list. they just assumed the figure from what they heard from us. - Pls, i stand to be corrected, we have students on LOA but not in the figure of 2000. Mgt said LOA is not a death sentence on the affected students but necessary to be able to track students wherever they maybe at any particular point in time. it explained that not only student who are unable to pay request for LOA. those students that for one reason or the other could not stay in school also apply for it. Example is a student on a sick bed. - LOA enables the varsity to track u and mgt said many students on LOA had just been reinstated by senate recently. i also have the following information sequel to the above -that at some periods in the varsity there were no accurate records of students population. All sorts of evil doings in the country were being linked OOU. -in a bid to know who was who, more than 8,000 students were regularised by JAMB thru the University efforts. Regularisation stopped last week after two years of shifting deadline front and back. - that last year, we students protested about registration and reinstatement after which govt granted amnesty to students to regularise and complete registration formalities. Some students refused to enjoy the window of opportunity. these are the people, in my own opinion are saying are on leave of absence. for God sake, how can u be on LOA if u are not a student? -Let us give correct information to our SUG, so that they wont be ridiculed. If u are a student on LOA, confront the SUG with your letter of approval for the leave to equip them as appropriate. if u need them to bring you back illegally, you may not get that through this struggle cos SUG discusses issue based on superior argument. Some of them had enrolled at NOUN, Awa but wanted to distrupt the peace in OOU. Someone told me that i am not ready for resumption ooo even if the crisis is resolved. can u see! - i expect the affected people cos i wont call them to post all sorts of msg but the truth shall prevail OOuites beware, our futures, destinies lie in our own hands. Let rescue them NOW!!
