FORMER UNIZIK VC RELEASED!

The former VC of UNIZIK who was kidnapped on sunday while on his way to attend a church service has just been released unharmed. Unconfirmed reports say that he was realesed after his family members parted with an undisclosed sum of money. It will be recalled that sometimes ago, the current VC of ESUT was also kidnapped and only released after concerned persons also parted with some amount of money which makes one wonder what trend the devilish act of kidnapping is taking these days and if these acts will ever see an end.

ESUT HAS NOT COMMENCED ITS REGISTRATION PROCESS FOR NEW STUDENTS

Enugu State University has not started its admission registration process for newly admitted students as is being widely circulated on the internet by speculators who use past experiences as their basis for such line of thought. Reliable information I personally got from one of the school's admission officers projects that the registration of new students MAY begin next week. I shall post the procedure for completing this registration once the it commences. Therefore I urge all new students to check this blog frequently and get prepared for this in advance.
Watch out for my new blog dedicated to ESUT which shall be online and running very soon.

Biafran Zionists Arrested For Declaring Independence

Members of the Biafran Zionist
Movement declared independence,
raised the Biafran flag and then
marched through the region's main
town, Enugu. More than one million people died
during the 1967-70 Biafran conflict -
mostly from hunger and disease. Most of those arrested were young
men but some were veterans of the
war. They were all remanded in custody. The BZM first gathered on Sunday to
mark the birthday of former Biafran
leader Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, who
died in November 2011 and was
buried in March. The BBC's Will Ross in Lagos says that
45 years after the Biafran flag was
first raised - an action which sparked
Nigeria's civil war - a small number of
separatists still keep their dream alive,
despite the threat of being charged with treason. Our correspondent
says the war has
been put back in the spotlight as the
renowned Nigerian writer Chinua
Achebe has just released his memoirs
of the conflict. He also notes that as the novel Half of
a Yellow Sun by the author
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is being
made into a film, this traumatic period
of Nigeria's history is set to reach a
wider audience. The Biafran leaders were mostly from
the Igbo ethnic group, whose
members were targeted by rioters in
northern areas following a 1966
coup seen as being led by Igbo
officers.
