🕹 *Historical days in UNIBEN-SUG*
📝In 2009, The then Delta State Governor, Chief Ibori was denied access Into the university by protesting uniben students. A protest led by Comr. Prince Harrison, Sug president.
📝 However, Ibori later found an escape route and sneaked through osasogie gate into the main auditorium.
📝Well informed uniben students got to know about it and stormed the main auditorium in their hundreds.
📝A messaged was passed and bone of contention was later resolved.

📝History repeated itself in a stylish way in 2017. When the Chancellor of the university of Benin was refused entrance into the school by protesting students led by some of the sug Executives in  likes of:
🕹Comr. Ogbidi Elvis
🕹Comr. Justus Aigbogun
🕹Comr. Ehabhi Goodnews

📝The three listed names  added to two other members of the union were rusticated.
Nevertheless,They were reinstated few days later but without calling them back to office.
🕹 Sudden increment in fees, Bread, shuttle bus and many other issues that ushered in the need for a peaceful protest after several consultations and consolidations with the management.

*RITA AWELE*
📝Halim Rita Awele was a 200level philosophy student
📝She was knocked down longside with her friend by a vehicle.
📝Sadly, Rita died at the spot but her friend was rushed to the hospital. Badly injured.
📝 Uniben students led by Comr. Raymond Omorogbe from life science  reacted immediately in protest against her death and demanded speed bumps, and a flyover so such ugly incident won't resurface.
📝 Request was granted! Those are the speed bumps today in uniben.

📝 2019 was another tough year in the Uniben -sug as Five members of the executive arm were suspended by the supreme sug parliament.
*Offense:Gross misconduct and negligence*
📝The decision was made by the majority in the house.
Anyways, They were called back to office after some weeks.

📝There was a time in uniben when all the boys love going to a particular buka because of a beautiful girl that sells there.(old men will remember this😂).

*🌒Quote of the night: In time of political unrest, visit history to resolve the mess. In time of political harmony visit history to prevent the mess.*
              _Prof. Woke soyeka.

*RIP Rita Awele👏*
