Pics: Bad situation in boys hostel at UNIBEN due to water scarcity

A LIB reader who schools at the University of Benin sent in the photos. He wrote;
"I reside in Hall 4 in UNIBEN and since morning there hasn't been water anywhere and our porters are not doing anything about it. Only one spot seems to have water and I have been here for more than 30 minutes due to long cue. Please ask our school to do something about this. Here are photos"

BONARIO NNAGS said...

Phew! What a pathetic situation, imagine the eczema they'll be sharing there.
Its a very poor condition for one to live in, asides the water scarcity, the environment is very dirty.

Hmm! This reminds me of my NYSC camps days in Anambra. But I don't think I had any problems like this while in the University. Don't worry guys...This too shall pass.

But do university authourities do with all the funds they get from govt and even PTF?The deplorable state of Nigerian higher institutions is quite appalling.Some people even receive lectures on trees like monkeys.Not funny

It's a norm in most FG universities, reminds me of Zik hall.

I've seen worse. Stop whining!

The spelling is queue and not cue Mr. undergraduate.

Secondly,are you really this &%%$?why don't you start by writing to your school authority,student body,hostel caretakers.

COLLIN said...

Nawa o...uniben tho

Unknown said...

Highly disappointed an undergraduate spelling queue as cue. U better defer your admission and go back to primary school.

Unknown said...

Haba nah the school authority should do something fast this is not funny at all, they are suppose to be in lecture room or doing something better with their time than queuing to fetch water mtewww!!!

COLLIN said...

So if edo pple are used to tins lyk this,do dey tink its onli edo students they have...(In ghanians voice)

Anonymous said...

How will you have access to water when you can't even tell the difference between "cue" and "queue" and you are in the university...

Anonymous said...

Almighty UNIBEN! God bless days dat were spent in schooling here years back. Aha! They were lovely days dat I wouldn't forget in a hurry, and wil surely go to d grave wit those lovely memories.

Sincerely speaking, I never liked life@d hostel bcos of d crowdy nature, and different personalities dat reside there. Life off campus was far better.

By His grace, dis water situation wil b resolve, and it wil seem they never experience anytin. Definitely, it wil b a tin of d past.

God bless all dat attended UNIBEN.
Great UNIBEN!

You people who love to set Linda up be careful!!! What do you think she is, Super woman?! How is she going to help, you would have being better off going to Honorable Ahmed, at least he might know someone that knows someone who can actually help. All Linda can do in this situation is post and HOPE it reaches the right authority. Wanna bet on the chances of HOPE?

Jeeezzzzz ! Nigeria should be ashamed of its self ! U put ur leaders of tomorrow in this kinda environment n expect their minds to remain n sane? Ur grooming cultists and bad leaders n ur hoping for the best ? Does it mean our governments are not aware of the impact n effects of such environment on the psyche of this young ppl or they just turn blind eyes ? U spend sooo much money buying guns n plice van + fighting boko wen u cld hv started by fixing this kinda place? May God deliver this country, a country that pays soooo much attention to noise nd frivolities ignoring the most important things in life, next time they talk UniBen they will only show us the gates n entraces but no one ll ever show u this part of the same school, lord hv mercy, thank u linda for this eye opener

Anonymous said...

Hahahaha, LIB: the solver of all problems from infertility to weather issues. Why should Linda ask the school to do something?

Unknown said...

Is Linda your dean of students affairs? Your hall reps should be the one to tell the school to do something and don't share pictures of improperly dressed students online , they won't approve of this. In fact u must be a fresher, hall 4 boyz always know how to handle such problems.

Brunxy said...

Stop complaining and deal with it....this is one of the experiences that will make u tough as a Uniben Alumnus....#Proudly Hall3 Alumnus

What your school have to do is teach you english very well, what is long cue, please is queue abeg.

Okiie, notice to all LIBERs. Didn't want to do dis before but I gex I just have to do it as a disclaimer. One idiot on dis blog stole my identity, my name & signage. So please any negative comments on dis blog is not coming from me but from the thief cos I would neva say anything bad about someone or wish anyone evil. So I have gone back to using my old pix & my email address is (julie3er@gmail.com). Linda take note!

University of benin is extorting money from student nau yet hostels looking this way. Most of them don't have lecture room, jumping from one lecture room to another

Unknown said...

Bad situation YES.
But wrong of the sender to expose half clad hostel mates on such a massive platform like LIB without their consent, and he excluded himself from the picture.
In a more advanced society, someone could get sued.
I hope they get water supply soon though. Its one of those intetesting escapades about hostel life.

This is really a bad situation

Edwin A. Obasogie said...

This is very deplorable! I stayed in Hall 4 (Abuja) throughout my stay in UNIBEST (as termed by the then President and Commander in Chief). I remember once when I was there and our living conditions were worsening, we invited (more like summon) the Dean of Students and made our demands after showing him round. I will personally do something about this, starting with a few calls to the VC's office, office of the Dean of Students and the Alumni President. Will provide a new water facility, if that's what it takes.

I remember wen I was allocated a bunk back in 2003 when I just enter. Yikes! The flies on the wall and the poor sanitary condition in hall 4 was the height plus the zero privacy. Couldn't spend a night there. Had to crook up an off campus accommodation in bdpa. Stayed there till I grad. Uniben I hail thee
