UNILAG Leaves Students To Sleep Outside Over Failed ‘Reabsorption’ Policies

 

As reported by saharareporters, students of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) are being shut out of the university and left to sleep in the open. The university stated that it is due to the students’ inability to complete the submission of the re-absorption forms imposed on them by the authorities.

Among the forms imposed by university management on the students for re-absorption is the “Hall of Residence Clearance Form” for students who reside on the campus.

Several students who could not get their forms completed upon resumption of academic activities today were denied access into the halls of residence.

Some students who said they came from their respective distant homes and could not return home and were left with no options other than to sleep outside in the open.

The university management in a recent memo has also banned squatting or visiting at any residence hall. No students are also allowed to gather for any reason in the residence halls according to the new rules.
