The Kaduna State University (KASU) on Monday directed students of the institution to return to campus on January 25 for the commencement of academic activities.
Three other institutions in the state, the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Federal College of Education, Zaria and Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic also announced the resumption plans.
The KASU Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Muhammad Tanko, disclosed this during a stakeholders’ meeting on the reopening of schools in Kaduna.

He added that virtual lectures for large classes of more than 50 students would be conducted for students in the lower levels and physical lectures for small classes of 50 students for those in higher levels.
The vice-chancellor said: “We have also planned practical classes in batches of fewer than 25 students for smaller classes and 45 for larger classes. The examinations for 100 level and 200 level students will be computer-based.
He said the COVID-19 protocols enforcement task force put in place by the university’s Student Affairs Division would ensure the fumigation and general sanitation of the hostel’s environment.
The Dean of Student Affairs, ABU, Prof. Muhammad Fatihu, said the university would resume in phases to prevent overcrowding on campus.
Fatihu said that university, with more than 43,000 undergraduate and 11,000 postgraduate students could not afford to ask all the students to resume at the same time without putting them at risk.
He said: “We have decided to phase the resumption for the continuation of the First Semester 2019/2020 academic session by dividing the semesters into two.
“Half of the students will resume and conclude the semester before the second batch resume while the first batch are at home.
“This we believe will help curb the spread of the virus, while all COVID-19 protocols will be strictly adhered to. We will consider normal school hours when normalcy is restored.”

He said physical lectures would be staggered, adding that while some students would listen to lectures via radio, others would attend lectures in classes in controlled numbers.

Veteran Nigerian singer , Onyeka Onwenu has revealed that she once rejected marriage proposal from the music legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. She revealed this in her new autobiography , titled “my father’s daughter”. Onyeka revealed that she rejected Fela’s marriage proposal during her visit to his club because of his other wives. According to her , she is a possessive lover and did not understand Fela’s love for women.Narrating how Fela proposed marriage , Onyeka wrote;
“The second time I saw Fela was in 1984, a few years after I had returned from the United States. He had just been released from jail. He was arrested for attempting to travel with his gang for a gig in London with a sum of 1,600pounds for their hotel accommodation. At that time, carrying any amount of foreign currency was against one of the many decrees promulgated by the Buhari/Idiagbon military junta. After he was released from prison, Fela sent a mutual friend, the journalist Onuorah Udenwa who is now a US-based pastor, to bring me to his club. I thought that he probably wanted to thank me for speaking up for him but that was not it. He never even mentioned in the article I had written in solidarity for him. Fela wanted to marry me and I was flattered. I thanked him for the honour of wanting me to become his consort but I turned him down all the same”.
The music legend added that while she waited at the club to see him, she noticed that his Queens (dancer-wives)had been looking at her with scorn. “They passed often , whispering comments about me. They were downright hostile and quite obvious about it. I pointed this out to him and told him that,” I was a possessive lover and would not be able to cope as an appendage to his harem but Fela laughed”.

It all started some years back, when a woman named Marina Balmasheva got married to Alexey, and helped to raise his son, who was seven years old then.If the man had known that she would later get married to her son, maybe he would not have gotten married to her.
Their relationship began after the woman, who is thirty five years old, fell in love with the young man, who is just twenty one years old, after he came back from university.She later divorced his father, got married to him and now has given birth to a daughter for her step son.
It is very obvious that the new couple are enjoying their marriage, as their pictures on the internet says it all.They look happy with the decision that they made.
Mr Alexy, her ex-husband said that she was the one that made her son to marry her, because she cheated on him by luring him, after he came back from the university.He said that sometimes when he is sleeping, she would go to his son’s room and come back as if nothing happened.

The notion about the village being a place where evil occurs is still very much alive in the thoughts of humans. It is ideally supposed to be a place where people gather and reminisce on old times or catch up with distant families, visit sites and watch cultural displays, listen to stories of past legends and others but many a times, it’s been known to have its fair share of atrocities one of which is family feud or disputes over lands between family members.
A lady known as Sally gave her fair share of why she started getting scared of village people. She is a verified Twitter account holder and she wrote; “When I started getting scared of village people was years ago when I attended my friend father’s burial. His brothers killed him because of his own land ?, my friend Obi decided to fight his father’s brothers, they killed Obi in less than a month. I attended his burial too ??
Her story is quite deep and that’s one of the many untold cases happening in various villages. She didn’t stop there as the tweet gathered reactions from various people.
She went further to add; “The thing is some of you men are very stubborn and won’t listen. When they advise you not to go to the village because of the plans village people have for you, you don’t listen. It’s always what can they do? I’m a strong man. It’s very annoying.”
In as much as tensions are usually high in villages with a lot of family members being around, it’s still regarded as one’s home and there is a popular saying elders do use on people who go to their villages when they say ‘You might be with your family but your family might not be with you.’
What do you think of this lady’s unfortunate encounter with her friend’s village people?
A SUSPECT has been arrested for the alleged shooting murder of a teen girl whose slain body was found in a Georgia cemetery.
Jaylan Jashad Ray, 22, who is accused of killing Atlanta teenager D’Shaunti Kyanni Hunter, 17, was detained in Tallahassee, Florida, on Wednesday, and is awaiting extradition back to Georgia.
Hunter’s body was found in a cemetery across the road from Unionville Church in Barnesville, about 50 miles south of Atlanta — and 40 miles from her home in Ellenwood — on Sunday afternoon, according to Lamar County Sheriff’s Office.
Investigators have taken out warrants against Ray for murder and aggravated assault, police said in an online statement.
“A tip received that afternoon led detectives to Albany, where a search was conducted at Ray’s mother’s apartment,” Lamar County Sheriff Brad White said.
“They uncovered enough evidence at the apartment to secure murder warrants for Mr. Ray.”
Deputies were called to the scene about 2.30 pm on Sunday after a body – identified as Hunter’s the following day – was spotted in the cemetery by a family who was visiting their mother’s grave, Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
“They looked at the back of the cemetery, about 100 yards away, and thought somebody had dumped trash or something,” White continued. “So they went back there and saw that it was a young lady on the ground. They immediately left and called 911.”
The gruesome discovery came about 24 hours after Hunter was last seen alive, according to the outlet.
“This is crushing us,” Hunter’s aunt, Jazmine Johnson, told Channel 2 Action News on Tuesday.
“They stole from us,”she added.
“This is wrong. This is way more than wrong.”
White told Channel 2 that investigators found tire tracks where Hunter’s body was located. They believe the person who killed her drove her to the cemetery, AJC reports.
It’s not clear if Hunter was shot and killed in the cemetery or transported there following her death.
The cause of death also hasn’t been confirmed.
The investigation is ongoing.
According to AJC, there were at least 155 homicides in Atlanta over the course of 2020.
That marked the city’s highest murder count since 1998, when 154 homicides took place. Just 99 were investigated in 2019.
“I am deeply concerned about the spike that we are seeing in our homicides,” Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms told the AJC.
