This is for all those who are confused as regards the next step after accepting admission and also for those who have been asking question regarding resumption and accomodation.

First of all after accepting your Admission via Caps you are required to print 2 copies of your Admission letter one for Institution only and one for candidate's use.

As regards The resumption date.
The date for resumption is left for the school to decide. Most people saying February may not be so true, reason been that Second semester examination would start and End next year january and there should be a resting space of at least a month or more before a new section begins Judging from past years resumptions fall Between March ending and early April so who Knows its likely it follows the same pattern.

There are 2 process involved in that Is either you stay in school hostel or you rent an apartment Outside the school where you can easily get into the school

IF you are going for school hostel you will have to wait till the session ends and when a new section begins you will Bid for hostels that is when hostel bidding will be out as well as the price ,and if you are going to Stay off campus you may not have to wait till the session ends, You can get any hostel of your choice depending on What exaclty You want...

MIGHT BAN CAMPUS MEDIA HOUSES FROM CAMPAIGNING, CONTESTING AND INTERFERING IN ELECTION PROCESS

The bill with short title *REFORMATION OF PRESS/MEDIA HOUSES & PARAMILITARY ORGANIZATIONS DURING ELECTIONS* was presented before the Speaker of the House, Hon Somad Oladele and it received mixed reactions from the Honorable Parliamentarians.

The co-sponsor, Hon. Paseda while defending the bill, said, the main aim of the bill is to prevent Media Personnel from spreading fake and unapproved election results.

While reacting to the bill, Hon. Samson from APH constituency emphasized the independent state of Campus Media Houses. "Campus Media Houses are private business and independent bodies and does not deserve sanctions for supporting or campaigning for aspirants during electioneering process" Says Hon. Samson.

Also contributing to the Bill, Hon. Ademola from Mathematics Constituency also argued that Media Houses are private business and can advertise aspirants if it is on contract basis provided slander or calumny comments are not made against the client's opponent(s).
The House later agreed that the bill should be anew by the sponsors and re-present to the House for further considerations.
Meanwhile Funaab Mouthpiece also received the news of the FUNAABSU President refusal to write an open apology letter to Funaabites, paste copies across Notice Boards and send same to the Office of the SRA Clerk following her failure to appear before the House for Presentation of the State of the Union.

Initially, the trio of the President, Vice President and Chairlady of Female Hall of Residence were asked to write apology letter following there refusal to appear before the house but the clerk hence since, acknowledged the full compliance of the Vice President and the Hall Chairlady.
Meanwhile, President D'ola told our correspondent today that She has written the letter when she was told to write it (last semester) but the leadership of the SRA also told our correspondent that no Apology letter was received from Madam President. The consequences of Madam President action is dependent on Honorable members as they've been empowered by the constitution to punish any Union Officer who doesn't comply with House resolutions.

Admission capacity: FUNAAB wants wealthy Nigerians to assist

FUNAAB VC, Prof. Kolawole Salako.

The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), has appealed to wealthy Nigerians to assist the nation’s universities with funds to enable them to maximise their intake capacities.

The Vice-Chancellor (VC), Prof. Kolawole Salako, made the appeal on Saturday at a press conference in Abeokuta against the backdrop of the post-UTME screening recently conducted by the institution.

Salako said that except universities were endowed with the much-needed funds, they would continue to shut their gates against many Nigerian youths eligible for admission.

The VC who disclosed that over 10,000 candidates applied for admission into the university lamented that “the institution’s carrying capacity can only accommodate 4,000”.

“This kind of situation would have been avoided if the elite, especially wealthy Nigerians, have cultivated the habit of supporting tertiary institutions with endowments like their foreign counterparts,” he said.

According him, many wealthy Nigerians would rather heap blame on the government which also needed their support to improve the nation’s education sector.

“Don’t tell me to advise government; tell me to advise Nigerians. Bill Gates is not a Nigerian but he is sponsoring education, agriculture, and health in Nigeria.

“My advice to wealthy Nigerians is that they should understand that all those billions of naira they have should be used to assist humanity for enduring legacies.
like their foreign counterparts,” he said.

According him, many wealthy Nigerians would rather heap blame on the government which also needed their support to improve the nation’s education sector.
One family with only one daughter donated billions of dollar to Harvard University and Stanford University.

Salako, however, commended Chief (Mrs.) Folorunsho Alakija and Chief Wale Babalakin (SAN), for their financial assistance to the Osun State University and the University of Lagos respectively.

“I attended a convocation on Saturday where an amazon, Chief (Mrs.) Folorunso Alakija alone donated about N1 billion worth of facilities to Osun State University.

“The Pro-Chancellor of the University of Lagos, Chief Wale Babalakin, has done a lot too in the area of endowment.

“There are several individuals who can help our universities and support what the government is doing in the education sector ,” he said
