UPDATE ON TRANSPORTATION FARE FROM POST-OFFICE TO PERMANENT SITE
The Students’ Union frowns at the inflated economy of Nigeria, considering the challenges it poses in ensuring a balanced learning experience.
Following the recent increase in pricing of fuel, we observed the buses plying the University route from Post Office outrageously increased the transportation fare to N800, without prior notification.
As an active Union of Students, together with the efforts of the Student Affairs leadership, we summoned a productive meeting with the leadership of these buses and successfully negotiated a fare reduction to maintain N500 as an unavoidable transportation fare, striking a fair balance between both parties while considering the current economic situation.
We strongly advise our colleagues not to exceed this agreed price when boarding buses on this route as we pledge to ensure fare reductions when the economic situation improves.

IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION ON BOOKING OF PRIVATE HOSTEL BEDSPACES ON CAMPUS
We are concerned about the unguided pressures from our colleagues (fresh and returning) to secure private hostel bedspaces on campus, which violates university culture and ethics. While we understand the demands and implications for timely settlement and student safety, this act allows violation of rules and exposes students to avoidable extortion.
Recall that no student is eligible for hostel accommodation until good standing results is approved and the official resumption date is announced by the Senate of the University.
However, we will like to keep you abreast of the following information;
- Private hostel application forms should not exceed ₦1,000.
- Students who have paid for bedspaces should demand a refund or forfeit the payment.
- Report any intimidation by hostel staff to the Student Affairs Unit or Students’ Union.
- Approved hostel rate for next academic session based on categorization, services and facilities available will be released soon, and students will pay utilities.
- High-energy consuming items are banned to reduce electricity consumption. These items are: Hot Plates, Toasting Machine, Refrigerator, Freezer, Electric Oven, Boiling Ring, Electric Pressing Iron of 300watts or less.
- A ₦10,000 caution deposit is required, refundable to residents if no damage is caused to hostel property(ies).
We are committed to ensuring a peaceful, restful, and impactful environment.

COURTESY VISIT TO KWARA POLICE COMMAND AND RESOLUTION ON THE HARASSMENT OF OUR COLLEAGUES
We acknowledged reports of unusual harassment of our colleagues by police officers and incidents of theft in the Tanke community axis. As a responsive Union, working tirelessly to ensure a conducive and student-worthy environment, we took proactive steps by visiting the Kwara Police Command on Thursday, 22nd August 2024.
The visit aimed at fostering collaborations with the police to ensure the continued safety and security of our colleagues in the state. We articulated the need to stop extortions and harassments of our colleagues to Kwara Police Command, and the following professional conducts of the police were reiterated:
- It is not permissible for police officers to check citizens’ phones by the road.
- No citizen should be arrested without clear offense.
In this light, checking students’ phones by the road, and forceful arrest without clear offense are unprofessional practices. We urge our dear colleagues to always be with their School ID Card.
We reassure you of our commitment to ensuring a peaceful, restful, and impactful environment.

RISE TO THE CHALLENGE: A MESSAGE OF RESILIENCE AND TRIUMPH
Smart Unilorites,
As we reflect on our recent academic results, let's acknowledge that they haven't been impressive. However, remember that grades don't define our worth, potential, or intelligence. We are capable, talented, and resilient individuals.
Let's use this as an opportunity to reassess, re-strategize, and seek support when needed. Reach out to family and friends for emotional support, Students’ Union executives for resources and guidance, and Faculty Counselors for personalized advice and study strategies.
Remember, we're a community that values collaboration, mutual support and collective success. Let's work together to overcome obstacles and strive for excellence.
As Winston Churchill said, "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." Let's embody this spirit and rise to the challenge. Believe in yourselves, support one another, and let's achieve academic success.
