You talk/type as though your friends cleared his grades and was asked to repeat. Learn to tell it off to an unqualified-to-pass sb who isn't meeting the standards to put more efforts than blaming an innocent school.

Innocent!! You obviously dont know OAU.

There is no amplification in my statement. We are saying same thing, different wordings. They are able to divide the masses by deliberately impoverishing us
exactly! And it is just so unwise of us to think these people will relinquish power to us someday when we ourselves shirk from our duties and responsibilities daily.

Different people react to failure in different ways. This is why course advisers should follow up on students and recommend these students to counsellors but the sad thing is these counsellors don't even follow up on their clients who are students. They just sit in their empty offices doing nothing.
Even nairalanders give counsellors for free.

I have been having depressions for the past 10years. I could have committed suicide,but knowing that my name will forever be damaged, and also the very people around me who could have helped me in my difficult moments making jests or showing hypocritical sympathy on my dead body scares me. My body may not feel any pains,but I imagine my spirit feeling real pains. #suicideisano. I die living.
Thats the spirit honey
Just make something out of life,anything.
Once dead,those alive move on (no two ways about it)
Re: Kolapo Olowoporoku: OAU Student Commits Suicide Over Repeated Courses by Kaybex007(m): 11:45pm On Apr 22, 2019
When some students think of the time, money, energy, and all other things wasted on education, they think the way out is committing suicide, most especially when they see the unserious ones passing all their courses with good grades all because they have bribed the lecturers in one way or the other. But this is not the solution. Some students can not bear it any longer, most especially the serious ones who read day, afternoon, evening and night just to come out with flying colors. But it's not worth it cuz what will be will be. I think a kind of program should be organized in Nigeria tertiary institutions so as to counsel and advise them. May the good God be with all the serious students in Nigeria.

Maybe the death of this young man would usher in the light to be beamed into OAU's underground activities. There's a purpose to all things.

That's a pity! I really don't know how things are being handled in his school, but I know that in some schools, there is this policy of waving two courses, mostly departmental courses that one couldn't pass. The policy has helped in reducing frustration for students who have one or two carry over courses upon supposed year of graduation..... May His soul rest in peace.

depression is real. Learn to have some empathy. Tomorrow, it may be you or your loved one, for any reason from poor academic performance, low self-esteem, lack of sense of fulfillment or financial frustration. Stop acting like you're infallible or invulnerable. We are mere mortals!

Reminds me of Joy Lobo who wrote "I Quit" on the wall and took his own life in 3 Idiots. The school authorities, especially the sadist of them should be questioned and possibly brought to book if they advertently frustrated the guy's efforts to graduate. So sad.

The guy is very wrong to take his life, he is not the first person to find himself in that kind of condition even some people conditions are more critical than his own. My class rep when I was in OAU had 40 units of extra year (first and second semester) and he didn't take his life. Life goes on, he should have used that period to work out something than he can be doing aside education.

Years back when a trusted friend duped me of my hard earned cash,I felt so bad and depressed that I almost ran into a moving vehicle to end it all,fortunately my ex then understood and came to my rescue. I still respect her till today.

Because of money?

Some idiots have started shouting about sadistic lecturers again, when the simple fact is that no student who passed SSCE English should fail CVE 401 (Technical Report Writing, a course with the same level of difficulty as a general elective) once, never mind twice. This guy's suicide is a sad waste, but don't start the thing with ready excuses again.

That is a bloody lie, and marks you as a lazy student.
Which CSC again? A department flush with funds, where countless graduate students get paid internships worth north of a hundred grand? Who was your supervisor? Lazy sods like you (or whoever had that experience) give the university a bad name.

show some respect to the dead! Besides, don't base your conclusions on what you have read. The deceased didn't drop a suicide note therefore any information about his death is not fully baked. Again, even if he took his own life because of his inability to pass his outstanding courses, who are we to judge or call him a slowpoke?

Just looking at what you've written, I can see why you would have problems coping with postgraduate studies.
I never claimed to be a PG student.
