It’s time to rebuild UniJos —VC


The Vice- Chancellor of the University of Jos, Professor Sabastine Maimako has called on all its former students who bear the certificate of the institution to look back at their former school with a view of helping their alma mata.

Dr. Otsemobor who is currently undergoing a doctorate degree programme at the Faculty of Natural Science has all alone undertaken the renovation of the faculty building at the main campus, Bauchi Road Jos.

The VC made the call in a remark during the inauguration of the renovated building. Represented by Professor Lami Lumbin, the VC said, “UniJos can boast of its former students that are doing well in their various fields of endeavour across the world.

“While the former graduands are making personal progress using the knowledge acquired from the school, the school itself is lacking in several infrastructural facilities.”

He further stressed “So I will used this opportunity to inaugurate a project carried out by an alumni to call on others that graduated from this institution to try and come back to their former school and see the condition of the school they graduated years ago.

“The school is so appreciative of the gesture by this particular former student to embark on this project, the faculty is now wearing a new look.

“In the same spirit, if other could come and do one or two project, the school will get developed, because the university need to maintain its academic quality standard that it is known for.”

The VC commended Dr. Otsemobor for the gesture and said the school would ever live to remember her contribution.

Earlier in a remarks, “Dr. Otsemobor, who sponsored the project said, “I was trained by this school for my Masters Degree and I’m here on my doctorate degree programme. On resuming here, I did not like the look of the floor of this faculty, but instead of comparing, I decided to use my NGO to do it. I am somebody who don’t like to see thing going wrong and look the other way. I’m always passionate about my environment.

University of Jos Alumni, director who was represented by Mr. Adoration Dashit expressed gratitude with the alumni member who decided to embark on the renovation.

Turkey bomb victims ‘mostly children’surviving

Most of the victims of the bombing of a Kurdish wedding party in the Turkish city of Gaziantep on Saturday were children, media reports have said. Twenty-nine victims were under the age of 18, reports said, with one official saying 22 were under the age of 14. The death toll rose to 54 yesterday. The suicide bomber himself was a child aged between 12 and 14, President Recep Tayyip One woman lost four children in the attack, Emine Arhan, said yesterday: “If it wasn’t for my only surviving child, I would have killed myself.” Another victim was a nine-year-old girl who had stayed on at the party to see the bride after her parents had left, according to reports. A disproportionately large number of women and children were killed in the attack because it targeted henna night, a part of the celebration attended mainly by women and children. Turkish officials said the type of bomb used, which contained scraps of metal, was similar to those used in previous attacks on pro-Kurdish gatherings. ...

IMMUNITY BILL: A MISPLACED PRIORITY

Certainly, it is not a matter of conjecture to say that the undue interference and unpalatably flagrant disregard to separation of power by the executive tier of government has raised more questions than answers on the integrity of this government and the commitment of the leadership to truly push for the genuine change in line with democratic norms all over the world.   Fatunde Bamidele Samuel (VEGA) writes from lagos. Recently, the society was encapsulated with shocking news of pension bill for the National Assembly members. However, the bill was dead on arrival. This is nothing but another heinous attempt to permanently ground the country that is already suffering from the bloodsucking bedbugs (NASS) and former governors pensions. These are almost sucking the finances of this country dry; if and only if we could act fast to salvage it then we can only hope the existence of Nigeria will not be history. The recent exploit of the National Assembly is evi...

Breaking News: Paul Manafort Quits Donald Trump’s Campaign After Tumultuous Run

POLITICS Paul Manafort with reporters in a Republican Convention last month Paul Manafort, installed to run  Donald J. Trump ’s operation after the firing of his original campaign manager, handed in his resignation on Friday, signifying the latest tumult to engulf the candidate, whose standing in the polls has steadily dropped since the  Republican Party ’s convention in July. Mr. Manafort left nearly a week after a New York Times report  about problems within the Republican presidential nominee’s campaign helped precipitate a leadership shake-up. His departure reflects repeated efforts to steady a campaign that has been frequently roiled by the unpredictable behavior of its tempestuous first-time candidate. Mr. Manafort was also dogged  by reports about secretive efforts  he made to help the former pro-Russian government in Ukraine, where he has worked on and off over several years. Those news reports were blotting out much of the press coverage of th...
