Yet, this year’s ambitious theatrical performance by JJ Classics Production of SANKARA has done just that. A sociology sophomore by academic discipline, the spotlight has fallen on Osaremeh Ijebor as a frontline actor playing the requisite role of Mariam Sankara, wife of the revolutionary leader of Burkina Faso.

Peace Nkenta ‎On Monday, 14th of July, two students, Aduwo Ayodele, a final year student of the History Department, and Gbadegesin Olamide, a final year Master’s student at the Institute of African Studies, received a four-semester suspension. ‎This decision was taken during the Central Student Disciplinary Committee (SDC) sitting held earlier today involving the Vice Chancellor amongst other members of the University management.
