Nigeria: The Divine Comedy- Pope Jay
For any genuine lover of verse, Dante Alighieri is not a name that ought to sound absolutely new. Dante was a traditional Italian artist who is prominent for his artful culmination; The Divine Comedy. The Divine Comedy is a metaphorical account of the Alighieri's fanciful voyage through damnation, limbo, and paradise. The sonnet, which has propelled various other aesthetic works one of which is the prevalent Dan Brown's book; Inferno, is partitioned into three areas, correspondingly named the Inferno (Hell), the Purgatorio (Purgatory), and the Paradiso (Paradise). In each of these three domains the artist meets with fanciful, verifiable, and contemporary personages. Obviously, as the name of every stage infers, hellfire is loathsome; it is portrayed with a great deal of torment and agony and "horrifying displays of violence", the limbo is the home of cleaning; likewise described with some level of affliction. The last and last stage, which just comes after one has experienced all these different stages, is heaven.
There is no gainsaying in stating that Nigeria is currently hellish and Nigerians are suffering. Prices continue to rise by the day and Different employers (some state governments inclusive) have refused to pay the stunted salaries that serve as little compensation for their employees. I was chatting with a petty trader who usually took her wares to a secondary school in the area to sell to the students and teachers and I could not help but laugh when she told me she could no longer sell at the school because all the teachers in the school had started to sell these things themselves! Of course, the effect of the non-payment of salaries was trickling down already! Notwithstanding, with some of the fragments of hope I have left, I want to trust that Nigeria is simply experiencing the second stage in this her Divine Comedy and there is for sure light at the end of this seemingly dark tunnel. Yet, on the other hand, considering an alternative probability, we might still just be in the frightful stage requiring another to come and change this "change" before we appreciate any genuine purgation. Simply Saying!

UI To Be Shut Again?
Following the resumption of the students of the University of Ibadan as announced by its management, the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) Oyo Joint campuses have resolved to resume their protest as the management of the Institution is said to have not appropriately resolved the issues that led to the closure. Find the release below;
THE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN MANAGEMENT TO EXPERIENCE THE NEW DEFINITION OF THIRD "C" OF ALUTA AS THEY HAVE FAILED TO HONOUR THE FIRST AND SECOND "C".
It's no news that a leader that stands aloof to his people is a puppet. The attention of the executive council of National Association of Nigerian Students Joint Campus Committee (NANS JCC), Oyo State was drawn to verdicts of the Students' Disciplinary Committee (SDC) sitting which took place on Wednesday 30th of May, 2016 at the University of Ibadan.
We took the path of calling for redress of the Students' Disciplinary Committee (SDC) with a on Monday 25th of April, 2016. But the management sent students home and called them back after 7 weeks with the issues unattended to.
Till date, the management has refused to bulge. We like to bring to your notice GREATEST NIGERIAN STUDENTS that no sign of redress or reception of our effort is shown. The shun from the management of the University rubbishes our CONSULTATION and giving no room for CONSOLIDATION.
Oyo State NANS JCC is known to be the most ideological, reactive, intelligent, accommodating, progressive, militant and radical axis of students movement in the nation and we are rigid on upholding what we are known for by billions of students that believes in indefatigable actions to make sure students are not unjustly punished, intimidated, oppressed and victimised in all ramifications.
The negligence of our consultation satisfy the popular saying of Human Right Activists "Freedom is not giving willingly by Oppressors, it must be forcefully demanded by the Oppressed, there will be massive lockdown of the school's gate on Monday 20th of June , 2016 by 8am until our demands are met.
Anticipate mobilisation from all tertiary institutions in the Pace Setter.
NANS JCC!
SOLIDARITY FOREVER!
Nothing shall discourage us.
Aluta Continua!
Victoria Ascerta!

NANS JCC, Oyo St
