SOME students of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile Ife, have expressed worry over the large population of ceaseless migratory fruit bats, which had been living in various parts of the university community, including academic areas, for decades.
The university re-opens on Sunday, August 24.
Bats are one of the primary sources of contracting Ebola and the fruit bats are members of the Pteropodidae family of bats, which act as pollinators and seed dispersers and are said to be found in primary or maturing secondary forests.
One of the students, Sodiq Oyeleke, on Wednesday, captured the panic being expressed by his colleagues on the possible temporary shutdown of the school by the Federal Government, in an effort to stop the spread of Ebola.
In an article posted on www.oaupeeps.com, a news blog for students and alumni of the institution, entitled: “Another OAU Shutdown Beckons: We May Return Home Soon,” he enjoined his colleagues to refrain from spreading rumour about the possibility of the school being shut again.
Before the article, students of the university had, on social media, expressed panic over the announcement of re-opening of the school, which was shut in July over protest on tuition fee hike.
“If care is not taken, we will be sent home again, not by the school management but by the Federal Government because of Ebola. We have not resumed fully and students have started creating panic about Ebola on campus,” the article read in part.
But, reacting to the presence of bats in the institution, during a telephone conversation, on Wednesday, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the institution, Mr Abiodun Olanrewaju, said “the bats on OAU campus have been there for decades,” adding that “despite the large concentration of bats here, we have never experienced any outbreak of any disease over the years - much less Ebola.
“If the bats here could transmit Ebola, then we would all have long been dead. If despite the large concentration of bats, the Ebola case in Nigeria was not discovered here, but in Lagos, why would we have that problem now?
“We are all loco-parentis (surrogate parents) here ourselves. If we have any reason to believe that it is not safe for them (the students), why would we invite them to resume? Those fears are baseless. There is no cause for alarm.”
On whether the insitution is considering cutting down the trees that harbour the bats, as a precautionary measure, Olanrewaju asked: “How many trees do you want to cut down?” adding that “there is no cause for alarm.”
The management of the university had, in a statement on its website, said: “In view of the colonisation of the university estate by migratory fruit bats, members of the university community and their dependants are hereby strongly advised to avoid all forms of contact with bats.”
The authorities issued an alert to those within the premises of the institution to avoid “touching, holding or eating bats,” as well as “avoid pathways through which they may come in contact with the faeces/droppings of the bats.”
Meanwhile, in a press release signed by Olanrewaju, the Senate of the university had reconvened on Friday, August 15, to announce the re-opening of the institution. http://www.tribune.com.ng/news/news-headlines/item/13943-ebola-oau-students-express-worry-over-bat-population-as-school-re-opens-sunday-no-cause-for-alarm-mgt

Qualcoms: ICT TRAINING FOR FRESH STUDENTS


The pivotal role of the university in producing the levels of
human capital required for countries to succeed in the
globalised ‘information economy’ has been expressed in terms
of higher education’s ability to provide the labour market with
information-aware and information-adept graduates.
Developments in multimedia, increased communications and
other ICT innovations are obviously key components of the
information economy. Thus, it is imperative for the Obafemi
Awolowo University that prides itself as the leading ICT
University in Nigeria to empower her students.

The ICT training for fresh undergraduate students aims to
impart basic ICT skill into the students right from the onset of
their educational career in OAU. New ICT initiatives are being
introduced to the University. These include: student e-mail
services, smart classrooms, multimedia driven lecture delivery,
intra-university voice communication ‘Keedu’, increasing online
engagement, course registration, TCC project, e-assessment,
inter-university online collaboration (OAU and Unilag) and
techno-preneurship. These are in addition to various existing
services such as online meetings and interviews via
telepresence and videoconference, advanced search, e-library,
internet access etc.

These services require basic ICT skill to navigate and derive
maximum benefit. The purpose of this training is therefore to
educate the newly admitted students on Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) as they will continue to apply
the skills acquired from the training throughout their stay in
Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and after their first degree
education. The training attracts its own ‘Certificate of
Participation’ therefore eliminating the need for the students
to patronise road side computer schools after graduation in
desperate search for certificate of computer training which
today is a pre-requisite for job placement in most
organisations.

The first batch of the training commences this session. Fresh
undergraduate students are advised to download the
timetable for the training here.

FROM THE LEAERSHIP OF THE UNION
(As At 3:50pm today,21st August, 2014)
OUR UNIVERSITY MANAGEMENT AT IT AGAIN!
Students that make up the leadership of the Union
have been served rustication letters from the
University for 4 semesters for protesting against
hike in fees.
This rustication order however has been
suspended and they are hereby on probation in
the University.
Some other students have also been served
letters.
This is a clear indication that the struggle against
hike in fees has taken another dimension.
Great IFE Beware!!!
