IMSU Commissions New Senate Building

Imsu Elijah

The Vice Chancellor of Imo State University, Prof. Mrs. Victoria Adaobi Obasi on Wednesday, October 3rd, dedicated the University’s new ultramodern Senate Building.

The event which was witnessed by principal officers, staff and some student leaders of the University marked the official opening of the edifice, which will henceforth serve as the administrative hub of the University.

The 3-floor edifice occupies a strategic position in the University’s landscape with the Senate Chamber, offices, an elevator and a power backup system that protects the equipment in the complex from power outrage.

Speaking at the commissioning, Professor Adaobi said that nothing of greatness can happen in the life of a man or an institution without the great hand of God at work in such a life and institution.

Reporters: Duru Victor & IMSU HOT FM

Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities (NASU) IMSU embarked on an indefinite strike today.

The strike they revealed, while staging a protest at IMSU Front gate in the early hours of today, was due to salaries arrears owed them by the state government. They also alleged marginalization.

However, attempts by our media team to reach any NASU IMSU official proved abortive while the CSO IMSU declined to comment on the issue as of time of filing this report.

Meanwhile academic activities resumed rather slowly today as some departments  began lectures today namely department of education government finalists of the faculty of education. Other departments are reported to resume in earnest with some resuming next week Monday.

However it remains to be seen if the recent NASU IMSU strike will affect the scheme of things.

3. Visitation: Nigerians love visiting themselves. Some people have not had the time to even say hello to their friends for some time now. The celebration will afford them to pay for this.

ASUU STRIKE UPDATE: ASUU rejects proposed hiking of university students fees to 350k and 500k respectively

 According to a reliable source, it has been revealed that the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has rejected the hiking of school fees of university students as proposed by Dr Wale Babalakin, the chief government negotiator in the ASUU/Federal Government renegotiation exercise.

Prof. Lawan Abubakar, the Bauchi Zonal Coordinator of the Union made the disclosure at a press conference in Jos, the Plateau State capital.

Abubakar said, “One of the major issues our union wishes to bring to public domain is the wild idea of sharing the cost of education between the government and parents proposed by Dr. Wale Babalakin. This idea of sharing the cost of education since government alone cannot fund education, and that parents need to pay for it too.

“He proposed a minimum of N350, 000 as tuition fee for undergraduate students of Arts and Humanities, and N500, 000, for those in Sciences.

“Our union rejected the proposal based on the fact that the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria clearly states that funding education is the sole responsibility of Governments at various levels and not parents,” he maintained.

He added, “In his response, he proposed the idea of an Education Bank, where students will obtain a loan of N1 million each, every session to pay the tuition fee and sustain themselves.

“However, our union also rejected the idea of Education Bank, because for one, not all the students will have access to loan, and for those who will access the loan, it is the same parents who served as sureties, and subsequently pay back the loan, considering the very high rate of unemployment in the country.

Recall that the ASUU joined the NLC in an organized union warning strike to press home their demands. The warning strike will elapse on the 4th of October while negotiations are still ongoing between the FG and organised labour.

IMSU student boards "one chance", escapes death

Reporter: IMSU HOT FM


An Imo Star couldn't stop giving God gratitude as he narrowly escaped what would have been a very unfortunate ending.

The student of Imo State University, Owerri (IMSU) of the faculty of education (name and department withheld) boarded what is popularly referred to as "a one chance" bus on his way to IMSU from World Bank two days ago (Wednesday), some minutes before noon.

While in the bus, a conversation ensued between him and two other men in the bus. He in the course of the convo reportedly lost consciousness.

According to the Imo Star  all he remembered was that his phone (and password details) were requested from him which he provided (unconsciously). He also gave out his ATM with the card pin as requested by the men in the bus.

He however regained consciousness after he was dropped off.

When asked by our reporter about the identity of the bus, the victim could not provide this info.

Fortunately for the student, his account hasn't been tampered with as of time he initiated blocking of the account.

Road users are admonished to be vigilant and careful before boarding any bus, cab or taxi.
