26 Year old Olabisi Onabanjo University Female student runs mad

Posted by admin Headlines Thursday, February 10th, 2011

A 26-year-old female student of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, on Monday ran out of her residence in the university town naked.

The student (name withheld), an indigene of Osun State, was however rescued by her colleagues, who ran after her and put her in chains.

The President of the OOU Students’ Union, Mr. Rufai Uthman, on Tuesday in Abeokuta confirmed the incident and said the development might have been due to depression as a result of the long closure of the university.

Uthman said the student was rushed to the health centre in the area for an immediate medical attention as arrangement was being made to take her to her parents in Osun State.

He said, “We gathered that the lady ran out of her residence in total nudity. Her room-mate told us she had remained moody following her arrival on campus and discovering that the ASUU crisis was yet to be resolved.

“You can imagine her level of depression; this is a 26-year-old female student who has remained as a pre-degree student when she was supposed to have commenced the normal degree programme. She came to the school due to the news of the resumption, only to hear that ASUU had vowed not to resume work.

“We believe it will be an act of injustice for ASUU to claim that it is fighting for the interest of its members while the interest of the students’ body is being infringed upon.”
