The interns and members of staff of the Universities College  Hospital as a group in various branches have remained faithful by performing their respective duties, the federal government, true to type has reneged on its part to see to the timely consistent  payment of these aforementioned sect. The protest organized today the 7th May 2021 is to Express the gross dissatisfaction towards the welfare of our members. 

Nurse interns as well as other interns of the University College hospital Ibadan  have not been paid for the past five months or have suffered gross under payment. While confirming that the federal government  through the ministry  of health  is defraying the generally withheld five months salaries at an agonisingly slow rate of 15 thousand naira per two months for some, while the salaries of some running to hundreds have been permanently and consistently withheld. Officials of the ministry keep adducing flimsy untenable reasons for the perpetual non- payment of salaries, to the recent detachment of medical interns. 

The hospital Management of UCH have been unable to solve this lingering crisis, while giving a wanton number of reasons for being incapacitated to pay both the interns and the members of staff.

“The interns and members of staff are made to suffer abject penury while the management expects our members, who now live on charity for survival to use their personal resources to discharge their duties diligently in the hospital. We demand the immediate and unconditional payment of the interns and members of staff

These harsh conditions would have terrible consequences on the public and the tertiary health institutions where this persists in Nigeria and when push eventually comes to shove, as it definitely will, in no distant future the Nigerian public should accordingly blame the Federal Government for its insincerity and inability to manage all members of the health care team. 

UGONSA CHAIRMAN OYO STATE.

Pls is the call up number sent to the school at any point

Hmm politicians and there promises. Buhari needs rest. Well no harm in trying atiku.

The buhari govt has undermined the rule of law and the protection of lives and property.

Ngige is a stupid man for that. Idiotic nincompoop.

Akpabio is just a stupid man. Junky like him.

This man is stupidly insane. But looting billions won't cripple the economy abi.

Femi Adesina is just a dumb Bleep

Nigeria still has millions suffering. Not until the average Nigerian can afford 3 square meals we have not progressed. Nigerians will eat food and not policies.

Osinbajo should please say more useful things. This particular statement is counter intuitive.

Hunger and poverty levels are mile stones for measuring buhari's economic progress. And it shows he has done a bad job so far.

This is all propaganda so that they will be occupy all positions that be as well make themselves thin gods cos I see no way it affects practice. Even MDCAN was operational, when a doctor was caught stealing, killing they let them go free and yet say there is an urgent need for MDCAN. #Iwillnot be deceived

In a sane society his political career should die a quick and natural death due to his indecent acts. I don't know why Nigerian men find it so difficult to accept "NO" when a lady is not interested. They are just display their gross inadequacies when they act so.

Akpabio and his cohorts think Nigerians are so shallow minded, not to see through their political gimmicks. Any rational thinking Nigerian knows that he's reason for defecting is solely personal, selfish and has only the interest of himself at hand.

These South African business are gutting Nigerians like cows and not held accountable!! Gotv too removed stations announced price increase and say we are fools we have no choice. Meanwhile in south Africa there are xenophobic attacks on Nigerians. pay per view should happen as it is done in south Africa period.

Lack of attention to customer needs or complain is irresponsible have the heard the customer is king. But in Nigeria we are beggers, well instead of begging I throw gotv decoder into oblivion. And I know many Nigerians will tow this line if they do not put out a statement to apologize and restore the service ASAP.

Its with utter dismay I noticed the price hike with Gotv over the years. As if this is not enough there has been another price increase to kick off soon, well the price increase here is not so much of a problem but it becomes a problem when there is no commensurate quality customer service platform. These are issues the consumer protection act are to address.
My dear Gotv users have you noticed over 3 days that the channels are not complete!!! Now dial the customer care phone numbers Gotv place in adverts and signboards you will discover the false hood of these numbers no one ever picks up. No one to complain to yet they make millions from Nigerians daily.

I took the pain to drive to the nearest Gotv office only for the semi educated girl to tell me that the loss of channels is everywhere, is it been worked on she has no idea, when will it be solved no idea and its about the 4th day no single response or word from Gotv but yet they are quick to send messages to remind you to pay up for renewals or when there is an increase in price, but not when there are challenges with the services to at least assure the "stupid Nigerians" they collect their money this is absolutely and highly irresponsible of them. For heavens sake restore the one and only channel CNN in the interest of peace !!!! Or you loose me as a subscriber.

Fire guts the Accident and emergency section of UCH Ibadan. Unfortunately the cause of the fire incident is yet to be determined. Picture below.

The Story of Tunji-Ekpeti Michael a.k.a MOTE
and How It Concerns you!
Of the Greatest Nigerian Students
Ever Conscious Nigerian Students
What you are about to read is an exposition of
the evil plans of the current University of
Ibadan Management to turn the ever intelligent
University of Ibadan students into PUPPETS. It
is highly recommended that you follow this
piece to the very end so you can fully
understand what is about to happen, probably
the biggest protest ever.
WHY and HOW DOES THIS CONCERN YOU?
In the words of Martin Luther King Jr, he said
and I quote
The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and
cruelty by the bad people but the silence over
that by the GOOD PEOPLE.
WHAT EXACTLY IS THE PROBLEM?
Operation Free Mote is a massive campaign
against the continuous victimization of
students by the University of Ibadan
Management. It is now clear to all that the
current administration led by Prof Olayinka
has come into power just to use IRON BARS to
cage UITES. There has been continuous attacks
on students but the LAST STRAW THAT HAS
NOW BROKEN THE CAMEL’S BACK is the case
of MOTE, a 500 level student of the Petroleum
Engineering Department who was unjustly
rusticated for being part of a peaceful protest
carried out by the residents of Independence
Hall last semester.
The protest which saw over 500 katangites
troop out after exceeding the elastic limit of
their patience to peaceful request
improvement in welfare activities of the Hall
after the hall had suffered for over two weeks
lack of water and power supply exclusively to
the Independence Hall without any cogent
explanation from the University management .
It was however surprising that after more than
two weeks of neglect and lackadaisical
approach to the issue, the University
management found it as a sense of urgency to
attend to the problem of independence hall
that very morning of the protest. Just about
one hour after the protest, the Dean of
Students Affairs visited the hall and the already
rusty pumping machine of the hall was
repaired and water started gushing out once
again, power supply which had almost become
a thing of the past for the hall suddenly
magically came back to life.
The question to ask at this point is WHY DID
THE UNIVERSITY MANAGEMENT WAIT FOR A
PROTEST TO OCCUR BEFORE THEY COULD HEAR
THE YEARNINGS OF KATANGITES.
SHOULD KATANGITES HAVE KEPT SILENT OVER
THAT MATTER AND MAYBE TILL TODAY THEY
WOULDN’T STILL HAVE HAD LIGHT AND
WATER...
WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE PROTEST?
After the protest, the hall warden of
Independence Hall who obviously was the
culprit that could not successfully manage the
hall decided to look for a scapegoat to put his
blame on. Instead of Dr. Ayagunna admitting
his incompetence in managing the students
who have confidence in his leadership, he
decided to look for a SCAPE GOAT.
OVER 500 STUDENTS PROTESTED SO WHY MOTE
PARTICULARLY?
That same period was getting close to the
Independence Hall Elections, MOTE, who was
obviously a man of the people was said to at
that time have ambition to contest the
Independence Hall Administrator General.
Bearing in mind that MOTE was going to
become the AG and will always advocate for
the rights of fellow students at all times, Dr.
AYAGUNNA allegedly beat his chest that he was
going to “finish” MOTE. He started by
processing an SDC letter for MOTE which
automatically made the young man lose his
qualification to contest as the Students’ Union
constitution doesn’t allow anyone with a
pending SDC case to contest.
He later went on to fully ensure that SDC panel
rusticate MOTE. It is very shocking that Dr.
AYAGUNNA who is supposed be a father over
students was reportedly laughing and
celebrating after MOTE had been rusticated. He
was quoted to have said that “I HAVE STILL
NOT FINSIHED DEALING WITH THAT BOY”. This
makes it crystal clear that the case of Mote is
a pure case of POLITICAL VICTIMIZATION.
HOW THIS AFFECTS US ALL - ADEWOLE’S
TENURE VERSUS OLAYINKA’S
The current administration is seriously
planning an underground mission to
purportedly turn UI students into MORONS.
The reason for this is simple, there are plans
to increase the tuition fee very soon and the
only way they can do this is by firstly
“finishing” all student activists on campus. The
management thereby has turned into a
SCIENTIST conducting experiments with the
FUTURE of NIGERIAN STUDENTS. The case of
MOTE is first of such experiment and if the
outcome becomes successful for them, many
more experiments of students’ rustication will
follow.
It is becoming evident that even Queen Idia
and Obafemi Awolowo Halls are now two new
laboratories for the experiment being
conducted by the Prof. Olayinka
administration. There have been serious
outcries from Queen Idia Hall where our
female students are being told to pay FINE for
very unintelligent reasons. It only makes one
wonder whether we are truly in a University
that prides itself in training students that have
SOUND SENSE OF JUDGMENT.
Where on EARTH are University students FINED
2000 naira for not laying their BEDS?
Where on EARTH are University students FINED
2000 naira for dirty clothes on their BEDS?
Where on EARTH are University students FINED
for not using CARPETS in THEIR rooms?
Where on EARTH are University students FINED
for not having a LAUNDRY BASKET?
Well these are the current happenings in the
supposedly FIRST AND BEST university!
It is either you JOIN THE PROTEST TODAY AND
LET’S FIGHT THIS EVIL ANTICS once and for all
or REMAIN SILENT AND KEEP GETTING
OPPReSSED.
Look at AWO HALL, the hall lacked water for
more 6 weeks to the extent that our female
students were fetching and drinking MUDDY
water! The university never attended to these
girls until the students, themselves, decided to
come around and donate their personal money
to buy a pumping machine. The pumping
machine after contribution among concerned
students was bought and fixed, the water
system of the hall resurrected BUT just some
days after, the University management are
threatening to send out Union Executives to
the SDC for buying and installing a pumping
machine on behalf of the school. SOUND
JUDGEMENT RIGHT? HOW VERY CRAZY?!
They have been ordered to go and remove the
pumping machine fixed so residents of the
Obafemi Awolowo Hall should not be surprised
to go back to their old conditions BUT who will
FIGHT FOR THESE STUDENTS if we ALLOW them
VICTIMIZE MOTE RIGHT NOW?
THE FIGHT IS ON, WHAT YOUR PART SHOULD
BE!
Today is the D-DAY, there is an ongoing
massive mobilization across all institutions in
OYO STATE to storm the University of Ibadan
with the combined forces of ALUTA, and so the
UNIVERSITY MANAGEMENT can know that we
are not babies. At our AGE, many of the great
leaders of today were already ruling the
country, and some wicked people here in the
University trying are trying to suppress and
oppress us at this age.
Are they actually training us to be leaders or
PUPPETS AND WEAKLINGS OF TOMORROW?
In the words of a fellow comrade, if protest
was an offence, most of them who are
members of ASUU are supposed to have been
SACKED by the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT by now.
Of course we know their history, the same set
of people who protested over FREE CHICKEN
and TURKEY in the time past are now the ones
RUSTICATING students for PEACEFULLY
DEMANDING improved welfare conditions.
A CLARION CALL TO YOU!
This is not a small fight, we have contacted
both local and international media houses to
showcase to the world the rot in the Nigerian
Educational System, University of Ibadan as a
case study.
We hereby call on students’ BLOGGERS, SOCIAL
MEDIA EXPERTS, STUDENT WRITERS AND
(campus) JOURNALISTS to take the campaign to
a global view. Let them know what is
happening in Nigeria, the University of Ibadan.
By the end of today, the #FREEMOTE should be
TRENDING ON TWITTER, let the students in
HARVARD University know that the supposedly
first and best university in Nigeria won’t give
you light, won’t give you water and when you
stand up to request for it, they will give you an
AWARD called SDC LETTER and rusticate you!
Yesterday it was Kunle Adepeju and Colleagues,
TODAY, it is MOTE, Tomorrow It MAY BE YOU,
it is hightime we stopped this insanity because
the hottest place in Hell is reserved for those
who remain neutral in times of great moral
conflict.
This protest will continuously LOCK DOWN the
University of Ibadan until the following
demands are met:
1. UNCONDITIONAL REINSTATEMENT of Tunji
Ekpeti Michael with IMMEDIATE EFFECT
2. THE Students Disciplinary Committee should
tender an UNQUALIFIED APOLOGY to Mr. Tunji
Ekpeti Michael for the psychological trauma
caused to him.
An injustice to one is an injustice to all.
Aluta continua

Lolz

This is absolute rubbish, where is the civil union in this matter? Since when has there been bondage over expressing your opinion and not debasing ones at that.

Hmm alot of doctors have been found molesting patients secretly, a girl who brought her dying brother to luth once met a doctor who invited her to a secret place to explain her brother's condition only to have the doctor touching her hips like the words he was to speak wear embedded inside there. Fueled wit lust he begged to sleep wit her as to help supply funds to aid Treatment of her broda d gurl quickly hurled insults at him and found her way out.
Doctors hv been noticed to hv a high level of promiscuity. Laying in wait for both patients and their relatives. Any one molested shld seek for justice and cry out for help.

Mr minister issac too much talk all these are not new, just act, just do while you are doing you can expansiate on what is been done. Too much words flying about in nigeria, too little action!!
