Last week we promised to get back to our old ways and we are
here to deliver. Yesterday, the 7th of March 2017, 5 people and
several more had SDC hearings that resulted in several outcomes ranging from
reprimands to full on expulsion and we are here to relay the backdrop story
behind the SDC rampage especially at this time when several false stories are
being peddled.
We all heard of the alleged rape case that happened last year,
and for the freshmen amidst us, yes, something of such happened in UI and for
stallites who didn’t know of the happenings, we decided not to report it
because we had insufficient details. Although that was not the primary reason
for the 276 SDC cases, we had the Zik-Idia dinner debacle, the famous MOTE
protest amongst many others but today, we shall focus on the alleged rape case
in the Only Living Hall and run through one of the Zik-Idia dinner case. We
shall try our utmost best to be serious about this as matters of such are not
to be treated with levity. The rape case is a complicated one so we are going
to personalise it so you can try and understand it better.
Imagine you had a girlfriend, got it? Now let’s call her
Angel. Now Angel has a friend/roommate, Lucy, (short for Lucifer maybe). Now
Lucy, being the pure evil genius that she is, causes a rift between you and
Angel. Desperate you, hot-tempered and in the mood for some revenge decides to
set Lucy up with your friend, Gabriel obviously without Lucy's consent. If she was at least getting some, she
wouldn’t have time to intrude between you and Angel. Little did you know!
Gabriel and Lucy hit it off, and after going back and forth
with Whatsapp Messages and some other outings (we are not sure how it went
down), they decide to hook up, I mean literally hook up. PS: Gabriel is not a
UI student. What better place for Gabriel and Lucy to have their pre-arranged
meet than the room of the guy that introduced them?
So they meet up in your room, and then when all is set and
Lucy is stripped to her delicates.
Oh you dirty dirty girl, Lucifer! Gabriel, out of his innocence and perhaps naiveté decides to call you to inform you that Lucy is ready for action and she’s in your room, and then he steps out to get prepared, if you know what I mean

Now remember how you had a personal vendetta against Lucy? And
what better time to exert revenge than when Lucy is vulnerable? So you sneak in
and take pictures of Lucy
for no particular reason except that you’re
occasionally stupid and make irrational decisions. Lucy picks up her clothes
after exchange of words, sprints out and runs to Abefele telling them that you
and your friend, Gabriel wanted to rape her (or raped her). This were the
events that led to the preliminary hearing of the case giving SDC a free
Nollywood movie.
The sentences were given yesterday and You were rusticated
(not you, You…LOL), your girlfriend, Angel was rusticated for setting up her
‘friend’ Lucy for rape (how that was
concluded beats us too) and your roommate who was in the room who claims he
was watching a movie with ear plugs was also rusticated (sighs). And Lucy? Well, God made hell for some people but she’s
still a Uite who left the hearing with smiles.
PS: There’s still the story of our boy aka The bahd guy (we are really back to old ways) who
initially got rusticated for four semesters for his “supposed” participation in
the Zik-Idia dinner crisis which happened last two sessions. He was told if he
was remorseful and apologetic his rustication would be reduced to two semesters
like most of the others that his behaviour hasn’t shown any remorse since the
beginning of the hearing and he is expected to pack his things from Zik with
immediate effect whichever way he decides to plead.
When he was asked to
speak he decided to intellectually contest this decision first addressing the
VC, ‘Dear Mr VC you didn’t even give me a room in Zik, you have no proof that I
was part of the guys that invaded Idia and for the extra semesters you’ve given
me I’m going to sue you’.
(A lot has been added to what he supposedly said as it passes one mouth to another so we are going to leave it like that).
Long story short he got expelled totally (rusticated), and now he threatens to sue the authorities. Lool. Don’t laugh too much yet, there’s more to this story than we’re letting off but this is a story for another day.
