Heavy rainfall has caused the roof of Obafemi Awolowo University's Amphi theatre to collapse.

This collapse happened during a class, and four students were injured. The injured students were rushed to the hospital at 8:45 am on May 16, 2024.

O.A.U the school that formed us. It will be fixed in no time.

" Amphi- "a venue loaded with history of various kinds

This was where D-Banj performed his first major Nigerian show in 2005.


Na this same veenue for where we pursue Bukina that year reach sports complex too, as a fallout of that Dean of Student Affairs man wey dey like play students against each other in divide and conquer format

Dr Jingo , Dr 3A's , Maxwell,( the political parties -Pacesetter and DSM), Iginla Subomi, Lanre Legacy, U-Fit, Have-You -Eaten , Saburi, Femi Freedom, Afin Roger's ,Sobotiano, Tony Fash, Energy, Professor Jembe, and a host of other personalities all made my time in this school memorable.

Places like white house, yellow house, spider house, old buka, new buka, power house, road 7, road 1, Awo cafe , cofee room and aluta market.

Foods like Risky Burger , Sobo , Awo beans and Iyan Iya Egin at Old buka .

Will never forget Iya Israel one of the elderly women who used to do laundry. " You wash ? " was all the English the could most of them solicit customers with.

This is the rubbish school they keep forcing us to take as the best in Nigeria. You must be deluded. I've met many OAU graduates that are dumb as a doornail.

Ask yourself why you keep meeting mainly the dumb ones. It could be because you can't afford to be in a position to meet the smart ones.

I was at Angola A8 in 2005 as 100 level student in the dept of Philosophy matric no 059 in the dept before I left for another school after a semester.

I was the best student when result came out. HOD was disturbing my guardian then that I should return cos I was their best student. But my mind was made up.

Brilliant students, very beautiful ❀️ campus, sound lectures, they always finish the syllabus and very social institution.

Hahaaaaaa, you just brought back those old memories, chai!
Risky burger, old buka, new buka OMG!

That travails of Burkina is still fresh in my memory till today. It must be year 2002 or thereabout. I was there when he was pursued from amphi down to sports complex. Na so my guy tear race enter bush πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

There was another scenario where professor Rogers makanjuola was locked up inside Senate building by protesting students. I wonder where all those guys you mentioned are right now - - the saburis, legacy, tony fash, 3As, obesere and others. I graduated in the year diamond became sug president.

And on that D'banj's show, my group were very close to the stage that night. I remember how one very giant rat (okete) suddenly crawled outside while the show was going on. Many guys went after it right away and it was eventually caught by one of my guys. The thing sef amazed D'banj and don jazzy. What a memory πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

But all in all, OAU gave me more bad memories than good ones, especially how a supposed 4 years of study eventually turned to 7 and half years for me. Lecture boycott every now and then, SUG vs Senate, SUG vs town-gboro, internal ASUU/NASU strike, national strike, extra year, sadist lecturers, supervisor wahala... Damn!

OAU at the moment is unfortunately living on past glory. Everything that made it a cohesive community has gradually been ripped away.

You talk too much for your age. No one asked you all this, if you are unemployed pls find a job.
