The Yaba College of Technology, Lagos, has directed its full-time and part-time students to proceed on a 22-day holiday to enable them to exercise their civic rights during next month’s general elections.

This was contained in a bulletin by Head, Public Relations Unit of the college, Mr Charles Oni.

According to the bulletin, the holiday will start from February 11 and end on March 4.

It also stated that hostels and lecture theatres would be under lock and key throughout the period.

The bulletin quoted the Rector of the college, Dr Margaret Ladipo, as appealing to the students to comport themselves during the holiday.

Mixed reactions, however, trailed the announcement, as some students said the holiday would disrupt the second semester academic calendar.

Others commended the management for being safety conscious and allowing students, who are not residents in Lagos to travel for the elections.

Miss Ronke Adeyemi, a National Diploma, Science and Laboratory Technology part-time student, told the News Agency of Nigeria, that it was a good decision.

“It is a good decision and I am happy with it. It is very risky for us to stay on campus during the elections because anything can happen.

“I will use the period to read and prepare for my test because as soon as we resume in March, we are starting our test,’’ she said.

Another student, who pleaded anonymity, said the holidays was too long and would deny the students the opportunity to receive enough lectures and prepare for examinations.

The National Diploma Textile Technology student said the holiday should be reduced to 10 days in the interest of the students.

Real Train Story:
A guy that's works with me on a proj in PH decided to take a train joy ride on the newly deployed train from His city, Enugu to ph. He said though the ride was 8 hours for a trip that is 3hrs by car but the main outcome was that passengers started dropping off from umahia when they could not bear the fumes and dust coming into the train.Those that made it to PH were evacuated to hospital for same reason.I have no reason to doubt Him but will like someone else to take this challenge and verify his claims.

Nigeria and Mexico approached China for credit facility to rebuild their railway systems (and other infrastructures). They both got the credits.
Look at what each country did with the money.

OMG!!!!! I just found out something. The
peoples General (Muhammadu Buhari) is the
7th president while GEJ is the 14th
president.Both ar
seeking 2 come back 4 the second time. My
take, If Buhari is the 7th president and the
election is slated for the 14th, it means 14 ÷
7= 2. And GEJ is the14th president and the
election is slated for 14th too.It means 14÷
14=1.Invariably, General MUHAMMADU
BUHARI will be elected
to rule for th 2nd time while GEJ will lose
theelection because he only signed 1single
term with FEBUHARI 14 ÷ 14 =1.
SAIBUHARI!!!!!!!

GEJ TILL BUHARI Learns how to pronounce Osinbajo.
