One of the first duties the new government of rivers state
performed was to reinstate the lecturers that the Amaechi government sacked
also the appointment of a new chief judge.
What does ASUU hold
for us ? In the past administration of Prof. B.B. Fakae , the hands
of the students were tied as they were made mere onlookers of the activities
going on in the institution rather than active participants , many could attest
to the fact that the era of students unionism was far gone and nothing could be
done to revive the spirit that made the welfare
of the students it’s paramount importance ,although the growth of the institution
during his reign was no doubt excellent as the school move from grass to grace
but the saying “there is always room for improvement” applies .It was
autocratic as the rights of students were vehemently infringed upon , the
students need a voice , our wheelbarrow is democracy and we deserve to be heard.
The return of the
ASUU lectures may bring power to the citadel of the students also amplify their
rights but the cons are inevitable as strike activities which can stall our
destinies are impending as this was a regular lecture in the schools time table
during the reign of ASUU
We saw the ASUU
lecturers resume today and even held a meeting at the schools amphitheater the
proceedings of the meeting were however not disclosed , as we fold our arms and
cross our legs there is not much we can do but to pray and be optimistic as students . What are
you expecting? You can only be a students at this level once in a life -time it
is of peak importance that you enjoy every bit of it, comment.
