milehigh06: we all scream freedom of d press and som,e deluded donkeys who claim to be educated says it is ok for a school authority to seize thier phones but when fed govt goes to close punch,you will all come here shouting democracy champion So on point, it's really funny and annoying, i believe the students arent kids, and should know what they want, and not been order to. A tertiary institution is supposed to be a preparatory ground for the outside world, how can this be achieve when they wont let her students grow, and deal with it?. This isnt a university, it's more like a nursery school. |

blink182: Madonna university has banned the use of camera phones totally. Camera phones were never allowed but the penalty for being caught with one was the ☎ being seized but that was not effective enough as grotesque pictures of the school kept leaking. it's been like dis 4 long. D 1st time it was ban(2007), it ws very serious bt nt up2 dis as Nokia-Engage bcame a gud replacement 4 CamPhone but d best fone 2 be used is Nokia E50(nonCamera Version). Then if u get 2 d mkt & askd 4 Nokia E50(nonCamera version) in Lagos & Onitsha fone mkt, u'll be imediately knw as a MADONNITE. If ur fone is seized then at Okija campus wen d semester ends at times d fones ar returnd. Hw eva, i tink dis 1 is worst bcz since it's nw a session suspensn. Tnk God i've breakn off frm dat prison since 2010 bt it ws an experience. I wish u guy well. Becareful |

I don't see what the big deal is, almost all private universities in this country have this rule. If you choose to attend a private institution at least be ready to abide by the rules and regulations. At least they can bring phones, CU (covenant university) doesn't even allow the use of non-camera phones. Stop complaining and move on. |

Its an infringement on the fundamental human right to freedom of communication.. Students without a means of communication are sitting ducks for any mayhem.. Imagine that there is a crisis heading the way of the students of Covenant University or that a hostel is burning and a student is trapped in a room, how does he call out for help?! Its a foolish law and you should understand that.. |
Re: Madonna University Bans Camera Phones by LizyL: 11:34am On May 23, 2012 |
@spirit you don't understand me, I didn't say the law is bad neither good, I'm just saying that the school obviously has its reasons for creating such a law. The main reason of the ban of camera phones is because they don't want pictures of the school being leaked like it has been already. You could bring a nokia phone with no camera and still call out in case of an emergency. Duh! |

And there are disadvantages to that which I wouldnt even bother outlining here cos you seem not to have a problem with it!!... But thats also why I used Covenant University as an example where phones are banned outrightly camera or not!! |

blink182: So how do parents communicate with their children, what if there is an emergency?? Thats the point!! Moreover.. Point of correction.. The university dosent admit children but young adults.. If you are a child that isnt old enough to own a phone and use it responsibly, then you have no business in the university.. |
Re: Madonna University Bans Camera Phones by Nobody: 5:52pm On May 23, 2012 |
Spirit of Okija:lol, was referring to young adults |

Looking at this objectively and analysing peoples responses, it is clear that all the private universities mentioned are christian universities and all have its own ridiculous policies, regulations which impedes on liberal education, rules which stunts the acquisition and development of social and relationship skills and thereby graduates who lacks the tools to engage the real world at best and dangerous to any society and organisation at most. More interesting is the fact that no one has ever accused them of religious extremism for those students who objects on the policies of those institution OR of breeding religious fanatics for the students who unknowingly or knowingly absorbs those ideaologies being instituted by the said institutions. We can all at least agree that those points stated above would be at the forefront had those universities been affiliated with Islam yet in all characteristics they show glaring similarities with the almajiri schools. Thus we can deduce that indoctrinated minds (as most christians are) is irrationally bias,arrogant,hypocritic ,selfish and self serving and can only object on policies which does not align with its exploitative stance. |

Re: Madonna University Bans Camera Phones by tpia5: 7:04pm On May 24, 2012 |
i wonder if these phone companies can consider charging for photos taken with a camera phone. maybe $5 - $10 per picture? |

Re: Madonna University Bans Camera Phones by tpia5: 1:32am On May 25, 2012 |

stupid school with a growing concern, they don't want the students filming all the rubbish going on there. |
Re: Madonna University Bans Camera Phones by Nobody: 8:37pm On May 25, 2012 |
sammirano: stupid school with a growing concern, they don't want the students filming all the rubbish going on there.This is just it. Father Ede has very strong rapport with IBB if not that school would have been in a real mess with NUC. Students have so be warned never to speak bad of the school to anyone especially strangers. |

MADONNA UNIVERSITY'S OPERATIONAL LICENSE FINALLY SUSPENDED I remember when the topic on this school (Madonna University) was first brought up, many came out to defend the school and say that all the allegations against the school were wrong. Now what do we have? A poohole that has continued to rip people off their money and destroy the future of young and great Nigerians, leaving many with scars that would be hard to recover from. Well this is just the beginning because there is still more to be revealed about the school. Madonna is one of the most evil places you can think of, maybe asides Kirikiri prison. Everything is fake and the people there act as if they are under a spell and can't talk about what was happening to them. The University accommodation is pathetic and the whole "justice" system of the school is at best, hideous. The head of students' affairs, a certain "Aunty Philo" has everybody under her feet, including the HODs and lecturers. She tells you anything she likes for you to pay as fine. Students get expelled for nothing, crazy fines are imposed on students, people aren't even allowed to write their carry-over exams so that they'll repeat and pay the school fees again for a spill-over, and even when they write their spill-over exams, they are not given their results and never allowed to graduate. You have people who come into Madonna for a four-year course having to spend nine (9) years or never even allowed to graduate. There is no synergy between the exams and records department and the various faculties and departments, and that is the reason why students keep complaining of missing results even after they have taken the exams. You could even be woken up at 12AM to be told that you just got expelled, if maybe a phone gets missing in the room you are sleeping in, even if you know nothing about it. At different times, Father Edeh even brings foreigners who he claims are on exchange programs to the school, but on a closer look they are members of foreign charity organizations that have come to see the supposed "charities" that he claims to be running. On a weekly basis, at certain times he makes photographers take pictures of students who are woken up around 6AM, looking all rough and unkempt because they haven't taken their bath and all of that, and the news that makes the rounds is that he uses such pictures to solicit for help from foreign aid organizations. After that (the "jogging session", he will make them sit under the sun for between two (2) to three (3) hours, telling them one lie after the other, about how he went to Chicago University and how he is trying to bring the best equipment to Madonna. The security men have absolute powers, meaning that you can't even explain yourself if there is any awkward or wrong situation you are accidentally found in. Has anybody asked about what is going on in the so-called medical school? That one is the biggest joke of all. Anyone who think that all of this is a lie should pay that place a visit. It is not about anyone forcing anybody to go there, some people actually attended the school because it was listed as a Nigerian university to be attended, just like every other Nigerian university. Drawing from that, it would then be unfair to say "you weren't forced to go there". Please take a look at this link: https://www.nairaland.com/805270/scam-center-called-madonna-university |
