Something we must all bear in mind is the fact that history doesn't alkways repeat itself. This matter will be a different case and will mark the freedom of GREAT NIGERIAN STUDENTS. Can v imagine that during the post ume examination, this man called Bartho instantly disqualified about 1500 medicine students who came to write the exam on the ground that the population is too much. People who paid for an examination and some of them even came from distant places. The man's cup is full, PERIOD.

The best thing that will happen to UNN is for EFCC to come get Professor Bartholomew Okolo arrested, he is the most corrupt and deceitful Vice Chancellor in the country . He is a destroyer not a builder.
He started his administration by demolishing all the eating places and business centers inside the school premises, without providing alterative and no one talked. He forced 40,000 student to buy shopping forms at the rate of 10,000 which amounted to over FOUR HUNDRED MILLION NAIRA that went to his personal purse, Next he went ahead and increase acceptance fee from 6000 to 25000
While thousands of students were paying 25,000 naira in the bank,2000 receipt were given to them. Then on the University website fresh undergraduates were billed to pay N85,000 excluding sundry fess, which altogether amounts to N125,000.
Convocation fees from N4,000 to N40,000(900% increase) and then school fees for old student was N80,000. all this information was in University Web site befor the demonstration began, after the demonstration it all disappear from the website.
There were two fronts in the crisis. The first involved the secondary students of the institution who were protesting arbitrary fee hike by their school from N30,000 to N60,000. Letters reportedly signed by the principal, Mrs. Ebele Erojikwe and issued to the students earlier on Wednesday sparked off the violent demonstration on Thursday. On Friday when student union government confronted him on the matter, he refused to address them, that why the Union mobilize students for the demonstrations.

THE PROFILE OF THE VICE CHANCELLOR

1) He was the Chairman of NUGA committee during Nebo's regime. He ended up leaving most Sport facilities uncompleted, looting the remaining money. Billions of Naira went into his personal purse

2) When he assumed office started demolishing classrooms, restaurants and Computer Centres in the campus with no compensation to the owners, providing no single alternative for stranded students. No place to eat nor type documents.


3)He is arrantly arrogant, snubbing meetings with the SUG severally abusing his fellow professors

5) using SSS, POLICE,,MOPOLS and SOLDIERS to intimidate and harass lecturers and students.

6. Award contract without following the school administration process
7) The only VC in the history of UNN that openly harass the female students sexually.


THE UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA STUDENTS WANT LEADERS OF THOUGHT IN THE COUNTRY TO ASK THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

(1) Where is the FOUR HUNDRED MILION NAIRA REALIZED FROM shopping forms sold to 40,000 students at the sum of N10,000 each?

(2)Would the thousand of students who paid the acceptance fee of N25,000 each be refunded, since he is denying of any increase?

Why is the new VC denying that he did not plan for any increase when he already made billions of Naira from the increase?
Why has the New VC failed to address students since he assumed office?
How much more money does he want to make before he allows peace to rain in UNN?
The answers to the above questions will prove that the VC is not morally and academically fit to govern our University?

What a criminal
What a crook
Why do we have such people as leaders in the high institutions?
What is EFCC waiting for?
Re: Unn Shut Down Over Students’ Fee Hike Protest by ndubest(m): 9:15am On Jan 19, 2010
This whole saga or should I say allegation of the riots being instigated by lecturers is one thing that beats me. If there is an element of truth in it, which from my past experience there may be, it leaves me to wonder when students will learn and NOT allow themselves be used for achieve selfish interest of their teachers.

Prof Okolo may have been highhanded in the way he goes about managing the affairs of the school, but why not seek an audience with him either by persuasion or force if he refuses, by setting up camp in his office or at home. That way his attention must be drawn or even going to the press to make all the noise in order to get his attention. The students thinks they are fighting a good cause and I believe they were, however, they have used a wrong methodology by allowing themselves to be used by the Lecturers to prolong their stay in school.

It is unfortunate the Prof Okolo is not diplomatic and that worries me because he took over from or "allegedly annointed" by a Rev, who was very diplomatic in carrying out the affairs of university administration. Did he not learn anything from Nebo?

I think it is high time, that would be heads of institutions owned by government should be made to go through manadatory diplomatic training skills or human relationship management, just like ambassadors are orientated so they can learn how to manage crisis. Being an academic giant does not translate to being a good administrator.

@Batomustgo

I share your sentiments and I suspected you may have some connections with UNN to have all these information about Prof Okolo.
However, EFCC cannot work based on information posted by an anonymous person on Nairaland. I think you can help by providing credible evidence to support your assertions. That way EFCC can immediately swing into action.

I am sure with the concern expressed by Senator Ayogu Eze representing the area in the Senate, if concrete evidences can be provided, then EFCC will hv something to work with. One clue i may give from what you have said so far regarding evidence is for you to rally students that you know who have paid the new increment but were issued with receipt of N2,000. I think EFCC can start there, if there are people that are willing to come out.

I will be watching out as this story develops

The best thing that will happen to UNN is for EFCC to come get Professor Bartholomew Okolo arrested, he is the most corrupt and deceitful Vice Chancellor in the country . Almost 40,000 students had already paid N25,000 acceptance fees which amount to over 1Billion naira, unfortunately the receipt bears N2,000
He started his administration by demolishing all the eating places and business centers inside the school premises, without providing alternative places and no one talked. He forced 40,000 student to buy shopping forms at the rate of 10,000 which amounted to over FOUR HUNDRED MILLION NAIRA that went to his personal purse, Next he went ahead and increase acceptance fee from 6000 to 25000 and made over N1billion.
While thousands of students were paying 25,000 naira in the bank,2000 receipt were given to them. Then on the University website fresh undergraduates were billed to pay N85,000 excluding sundry fess, which altogether amounts to N125,000.
Convocation fees from N4,000 to N40,000(900% increase) and then school fees for old student was N80,000. All this information were in University Website befor the demonstration began, after the demonstration it all disappeared from the website.
There were two fronts in the crisis. The first involved the secondary students of the institution who were protesting arbitrary fee hike by their school from N30,000 to N60,000, because demanded the school should provide N90millions within two days. Letters reportedly signed by the principal, Mrs. Ebele Erojikwe and issued to the students earlier on Wednesday sparked off the violent demonstration on Thursday. On Friday when student union government confronted him on the matter, he refused to address them, that why the Union mobilize students for the demonstrations.

N2,000
(7)Why is the new VC denying that he did not plan for any increase when he already made billions of Naira from the increase?
Why has the New VC failed to address students since he assumed office?

How much more money does he want to make before he allows peace to rain in UNN?

What is the school council and senate doing, if they have not been bribed?

Why do we have such people as leaders in the high institutions?
