Recent Ban on commercial motorcycles in the University of Ibadan: Reactions and opinions of students

Image
The management of University of Ibadan officially banned commercial Motorcycle operations on campus since June 30, 2019 and replaced it with tricycle. This in turn triggered reactions from students, residents and workers. FATSSSA Press sought the opinions of students and they have these to say: Anonymous views; "I think one of the reasons why motorcycles were banned was not necessarily because of the cases of theft and accidents as purported by the management; it was an attempt by the school authority to encourage walking among students, which will, in turn, serve as a good form of exercise. The management knows better, it's now left for the students to make the best out of this unsolicited change. To me, it is a welcome development as some students are practically lazy to walk just a little distance. In a saner clime, I don't see an atom of sense in what the management did. So when you look beyond the amusement, you'll see the subtle meanings I embellished in it...

The issue of women dating younger men and men dating older women have been the subject of debate for a long time. Some people see no big deal in the issue while other people see it as a very big issue. More women in this part of the world are embracing dating and even marrying men who are a lot younger than them. We have celebrities like Kaffy who is 8 years older than her husband, Joseph Ameh, Lola and Peter Okoye, Toyin Lawani and Trigga etc. We decided to throw the question to some Fatsssaites, here are their wonderful responses.

VOX-POP: AWARENES ON STUDENTS UNION WEEK

We are all aware (or not) that last week was the Students’ Union week. The week commenced with a rally, there was Asun night etc. During the course of the week, our team of pressmen interviewed some Fatsssaites. They were asked if they knew about the students’ union week, they were told to rate the week and also to advise future executives how to improve the Students’ Union. Here are their lovely responses. Enjoy!!! Anukege Stanley, Sociology, 400l No, I’m not aware of the week. I’m surprised that there is even an SU week going on.   I think there was no proper publicity to usher the commencement of the week and there was no jingle like we use to get during election. There was nothing to notify people of the commencement of the SU week.

VOX POP: STUDENTS' WELFARE ON CAMPUS

“ I don’t think they care about student welfare oh! Because if it were to be their children facing the various hardships we are facing, I doubt that they would like it …” The quote above were the words of a Fatssssaite when asked by our Vox-Pop team if she thought Student Welfare was still on the priority of the management. Read on to see more reactions by other Fatsssaites. Idahosa Silver 200 level Psychology Department I think that they kind of care because most of the students are actually applying Marxist theory in the way they view things happening around without actually knowing what the school management is doing to care for them.
