FATSSSA PRESS -- University of Ibadan, Nigeria

  By Bhagemede. Following the earlier discovery of the Momentum Agenda broadcast message which was sent to some Fatsssaites, The Independent FATSSSA Electoral Commission (IFEC) embarked on an investigation after receiving several complaints from the general populace of the Association.  The Electoral Commission, had sent out a memo earlier on for students who received the text to send screenshots. It was later discovered that it was a broadcast message and it was majorly MTN subscribers who had received the text, the Commission established that the delivery of the texts was delayed due to network and bulk messages. IFEC also received evidence that the messages were sent the previous night (prior to the Election Day) and its delivery to recipients on the Election day was not a deliberate act. The circumstances have been resolved but Miss Modesty has been fined with a sum of Twenty Thousand Naira only, this is to ensure that the standards governing the electoral process is uphel...

  By FATSSSA PRESS A campaign message promoting Modesty Paul Nsirim, an aspirant for the position of Social Director in the forthcoming FATSSSA election, has been circulated to students despite the directive for aspirants and their supporters to cease campaign activities. The message, sent from a contact identified as “MOMENTUM,” was received at about 8:27 a.m. on Thursday, October 8, and called on students to support Nsirim under the Momentum agenda. “Fatsssaites, Make your voice count and help shape the next social season we deserve. Choose, Modesty Paul Nsirim for Social Director, The Momentum Agenda,” the message read. This development comes after the campaign period had reportedly elapsed, with aspirants and campaign teams expected to discontinue activities aimed at soliciting votes. The circulation of the message has consequently raised concerns among FATSSSAITES regarding compliance with the IFEC electoral guidelines, particularly the enforcement of the directive against fur...

  ‎Elizabeth Fatokun  ‎They say, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Perhaps this is the case of the University of Ibadan this semester. ‎We all know that, every second semester is always filled with activities such; Jaw War and other literary contests, music concerts, political activities, and every other social activity through which students unwind and relax. And at this point, students sometimes forget their original plan for the semester which is, Academic Comeback. ‎Of course, it is a good thing to attend and engage in social activities because nobody wants to just pass through school without letting school pass through them. However, in a moment when we begin to forget our original purpose, I think we need to take a step back. ‎Many students become more focused on these activities while their slides and notes keep piling up until they reach the danger zone. Then, tests and examinations come crashing in all at once, with little or no preparation, and the though...
