The ongoing situation in Osogbo campus and the subsequent resolution of the University Management to indefinitely close the campuses met with mix-feelings among the students of Ikire Campus.
The larger section of the students as well as the stakeholders expressed their displeasure and dissatisfaction over affiliating Ikire campus to ongoing ugly incidences ravaging the main campus.
Historically, an incidence similar to this occurred in Ikire campus in August 2014 in which three live were lost(one final year student, one of the most vibrant lecturer and the driver) in the fatal accident. Sequel to this, the management coupled with the state government issued a memoir stating that all students should vacate the school premises. The closure of the school we all thought would last for two weeks later turned to over four months of staying at home.
As sad as the incidence was, it is unfortunate that not even a campus among the remaining campuses extends the hand of solidarity to us in the course of our struggle towards the re-opening our our campus. The entire students of Ikire campus were at home while curriculum activities continued in the remaining campuses. Upon resumption, we wrote three different examinations in a year as a punishment aside from the four moths strike and #30,000 reparation fees.
In the light of this, it's important we note here that the students of Ikire are not heartless as we sympathize with the family of decease and the injured students as well as the entire students of Osogbo campus. However, we are only picking point from history because history they say remembers those who remember it.
We are of the belief that indefinite closure of all the campuses is not the best solution because some are not affected and Ikire campus remain as calm as Osun river.
On this note we urge the management to rescind its decision on the indefinite closure. We are satisfied with the previous one week "mid term break", but indefinite?,never.
