IBB University's Decision Making Hijacked From The Hands Of The Decision Makers

Over the weekend, a popular news that went viral was the controversial interview Aisha Buhari, Nigeria's first lady granted to BBC Hausa service. Out of provocation, president Buhari responded to the interview by saying that his wife belongs to the kitchen and other rooms. Meanwhile, some people are unaware of some of the missiles she threw at her husband prior to his response. The most outrageous one was publicly saying that Nigeria has been hijacked from her husband; it's just 4 or 5 people that are ruling the country, consequently, Buhari has no much say in the affairs of the country. The above is not our statement, but a paraphrased statement of Aisha Buhari.

When we claim to be the watch dogs of the campus and we tend to fidget in voicing out campus and managerial irregularities, then we ain't worth to be called so. IBBUL Campus Gist can categorically say that decision making of the university has been hijacked from the hands of Prof. M.N Maiturare, our amiable vice chancellor by some few individuals in the school's administrative structure just the way decision making of Nigeria have been hijacked from the hands of Buhari. This conclusion was made, following the discussion of some few individuals in a WhatsApp group chat housing IBB University students titled "IBBUL Comradeship" where they were allegedly saying that Dr Ma'ali, the Dean student affairs said that he has informants all over the school. Informants for what? We cannot say categorically. Does a sincere person really do need to possess informants? Well...

Taking a flashback..., few days ago, the university's students union body informed the students via social media that there'll be a reduction in the registration fees from 27,000 naira to 25,500 naira. The reason as they claimed was a refund of ID card fee we paid for and were not given. Virtually every student was happy with this absurd development. Meanwhile, this absurd development shall only be believed fully when we start the printing of transaction ID. However, we wish to also ask a question, just like someone has asked earlier via a BC message. Why the refund of 1,500 naira? Was it not 3,500 naira that IBBULites paid for ID card? The remaining 2,000 naira, where will it be channelled to? Or IBBULites don't deserve to know what their money will be used for? There's an estimate of 9,500 students in IBBU. Multiply the 2,000naira that we are about to be denied by 9,500 students
=> 2,000 X 9,500 = 19,000,000 (nineteen million naira) no problem... God is watching

Prof. M.N Maiturare is a God fearing person as we've seen him epitomised it in MSS, amidst students and even when he came to hostel last session for iftar with students. Left for him to decide, this menace wouldn't come to pass. But the sycophants that have hijacked the decision making in the citadel will ensure they stand by it because they all are greedy parasites.

More so, the students calling on SUG to intervene, to ask the management why the refund of 1,500 naira instead of 3,500. Just like some students with 'little faith' will say, IBB University don't have SUG. But we've disagree to agree to that because we believe that the student union government will seize this opportunity to build hope and trust in the minds of students by digging deep into this. As we await the response of SUG on this critical issue, let's pray and hope for a better outcome.

Finally, we wish to use this medium to appreciate the management for not increasing the school fees and hostel accommodation fee. There's one peculiar thing about IBBU... when you start hearing a rumor, believe it or not, it shall come to pass. We heard the rumour of increase in registration fee, after agitation from different angles by the students and perhaps the students union government, the rumour didn't come to pass. Thank you school management for considering the current economic evil and attempt to make it better for IBBULites, we say thank you.
