KASU Management Evicts Medical Students From Hostels

By


Barely 24 hours after the stranded medical students of Kaduna State University wrote to the Executive Governor of Kaduna State and Visitor of the University lamenting the stagnation that befell them as a result of lack of accreditation, the University Management has engaged measures to remedy the plight of the students by evicting them from the hostel causing panic for students whose studies is being interrupted and for parents who bear the psychological pain of having such a promising future been toyed with after years of investment which has so far been fruitless.

This the school management communicated in a notice to the students directing that Medical Students ‘are required to vacate the hostel immediately’.
The Medical School has been unable to have a clinical arm after over 6 years of its existence having six sets spread across three classes with three of these currently stuck in 300 level (some for over three years).
It will be recalled that the students had staged a peaceful demonstration to the State Secretariat on the 9th of September 2015 lamenting the neglect and stagnation which has dashed the hopes of the Young Nigerians aspiring to serve humanity in a field that the Governor had declared a State of Emergency over i.e. the Health sector, at such a protest the Commissioners of Health and Education had promised that the issues surrounding the accreditation of the School will be dealt with latest 3rd week of October, this was not achieved and no one cared to address the issue ever since.
The school authority claims the session has ended thus the move to evict the Medical Students, this has raised questions:
1. Whether the 200 level students writing examinations can no longer continue their examinations since ‘the session has ended’
2. Whether this is the first time the session has ended having kept a class in 300 level for over 3 years instead of 6 months
3. Whether a session can come to a close without a sessional exam
4. Whether the academic calendar provides for a session to end with the notice of a letter only.
These questions are in dire need of answers, the students have spent years beyond expected and the kindest sympathy showed is to evict them … These students are currently helpless!!!

With barely anything to hold on to, the Colombian Sonia Lareinaa left her family and country to come to Nigeria to settle with her hunk here. With open hands IK welcomed her. It is stuff made of crazy love. “She’s an awesome person and we met off social media; I left a breakup and at that point in time I was really not thinking of getting into any relationship.

It was just two people with like minds coming together with a lot of positive chemistry being built up and then before you know anyt...
