Our public university need to think out of box to find solution to their funding crisis: Dr Deji Omole

Image
The nation woke up recently to the decision by 38 public universities to jack up their tuition fees. According to the Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Dr. Deji Omole, the hike was necessitated by poor funding from the owners, the federal and state governments. Whatever may be the merit of this decision, we are concerned that it may obstruct the peace of the universities, whose students have already notified the authorities of their intention to oppose the proposal because it would shut out many of them who might not be able to afford the increment. There is no doubt that the nation’s public universities are facing hard financial times. This is a corollary of government’s meagre attention to education, a fact attested to by its poor annual budgetary allocation to the sector. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recommends that developing nations allocate 26 per cent of their annual budgets to education to enable ...

Image
Leaders of the All Progressives Congress are concerned about the crises, which have enmeshed at least 12 state chapters of the party, SUNDAY PUNCH has learnt. It was gathered on Saturday that the fear of the party leaders increased on July 12 when the Supreme Court delivered a judgment, which resolved the factional crisis in the opposition Peoples Democratic Party. It was learnt that at a meeting of its governors and the National Working Committee on Wednesday in Abuja, the APC decided to speed up its reconciliation process. A leader of the party, who confided in our correspondent, noted that less than two years to the 2019 elections, the APC had not resolved crises in about 12 of its state chapters. He listed the states as Gombe, Borno, Bauchi, Ondo, Kogi, Kaduna, Kano, Niger, Plateau, Ogun, Lagos and Enugu.

Image
A meteor is like a shooting star. It sparkles, it dazzles, it brightens up, but it is also a falling star. They are also like joy, that has a slender body, that breaks so soon - Ayo abara bin tin, as was depicted in Ola Rotimi’s epic play- The gods are not to blame. A meteor rises fast and disappears at the apogee (height) of its glory. Birth Joseph Sanusi Gbadamosi Adegoke Adelabu, born on the 3rd of September 1915,died on the 25th of March, 1958, certainly lived like a meteor and his rise was meteoric. He was Ibadan’s most prominent politician of his time. He was born in Oke- Oluokun, Ibadan, to Sanusi Ashiyanbi Adeyege Adelabu and his mother was Awujola Ajoke, who died in 1920, when Adegoke was still an infant. HIS EARLY EDUCATION Although born a Muslim, he was sent to a secular school- The Saint Davids CMS Elementary School, Kudeti Ibadan, between 1925 and 1929 and the CMS Central School, Mapo Ibadan in 1930. He had double promotions in the elementary and primar...

why Ladies Expose their nakedness on social media: Rasak Ayanlakin Democrat Speaks

Image
According to Sigmund Freud “Everything a woman does; is derived from a man penis envy” (end of quote). Freud was of the opinion that at childhood stage, we gain much pleasure in doing two things – we love to be aggressive – we madly fall in love with sexual pleasure as well. It would reach a stage, a male child would see his father’s existence as a domestic threat, and would wish his father die; believing the sudden death of his father would grant him much freedom, to act like a husband to his mother. This is what Sigmund Freud referred to as Oedipus complex. Oedipus, according to a Greek story, is a young man who killed his father and married his mother. I know of a woman who says she wonders why her male children develop extreme likeness for her – her female children develop supreme love for their father. I explained the psychoanalytic theory of Sigmund Freud to quench her thirst of inquisitive curiosity, and she wowed. Sometimes, we men find ourselves in a room, exchang...

Democracy and Godfatherism; My take: by Prince Ologbenla Adedoyin

Image
What is a democracy ?  At the most basic level, it is a type of government or political system ruled by citizens, people who are members of a society. In a democracy, citizens hold some level of power and authority, and they participate actively in the political, or decision-making, process of their government. In general, it is defined as Government of the people,by the people and for the people Democracy could be better as compared to the Military Era before the fourth republic but, it has been characterized with Godfatherism, politicking of core government policies and programmes vis-à-vis interest of the masses. Furthermore, the current democratic system has been threatened with policy somersault, policy reversal, human right abuse, economic bondage and monumental corruption. It is against this backdrop that the research is being carried out with the intent of proffering solutions to the democratic challenges witnessed. Types of Democracy Followin...
