UNIBEN5: Why Ex-union Leaders Are Angry - Comr. Oguche Divine Omale (Exclusive video)

Following the rustication of five(5) members of the Students’ Union Government, University of Benin, members of the National Association of Nigeria Students, NANS and ex-union
leaders stormed the institution in a solidarity protest with their colleagues. 

Speaking with newsmen, a former Public Relations Officer of the Uniben SUG, Comr. Oguche Divine, said;

“Like my mentor will say, every onlooker is either a traitor or a fool. If you are neither here nor there, you are a traitor or a fool”. (Martin Luther King Jr)

“University Of Benin is our concern. The welfare of our esteemed students is priority to us. This goes a long way to further show our interest in times like this because we can never be onlookers”.

“You can't suspend our Union and then come back with information of rusticating five with no information of their offense”. 

“The ineptitude of the Management advisers is now visible to the general public. I remember vividly when the same Union protested for the University against the Government of Edo State over the destruction of university property in GRA Benin, none of the union leaders were rusticated then, was it because it was for the interest of management?
Permit me to at this point draw the minds of the public to the increments... it's too much considering the economic hardship currently befalling our country”.

“Reinstate our students so that our university can come back to being the best. Bring back the innocent students.
Please note that he who seeks equity must also do equity. Nigeria is bigger than UNIBEN. So bring back our five”.

“On a final note, please MR VC I personally know you are a good Man. Please desist from listening to those who advises you wrongly - claiming that the union is under their watch; they are the major cause of the problem now. Ignore their advice, they have nothing to offer”.

“Sir please concentrate on making our institution great again and as well bringing back your students to resume their academic activities like others”, he said.
