In all of these, no cared if Aina was ok. No one asked “Aina why are you looking like this? Is everything okay?”. Perhaps none of the lectures message Aina privately to say “Aina, is there something you want to talk about”. https://t.co/fWO9rmO5wF

At covenant university, presentation is key.

They take it so personal.

But we do not know where the video actually started from? The lecturers should have asked those questions @OluyomiOjo pointed out. https://t.co/9sekH8RiEm

Do you live under a rock?? Or something

Lecturers round the world don’t care about you or how you’re life is going.

Lmao. https://t.co/jd97JGw5mX

In my second year, we had a guy… suddenly started looking unkept, unlike him. We all thought he’s joined bad gang etc. then exams period came, can’t remember what triggered him and the lecture. Next he slapped the man, tore his own clothes and that was it… He never came back

This is where many Nigerian institutions fail to address deep issues affecting many people that could manifest in changes in appearance/behaviour. Zero emotional intelligence and empathy or even a desire to understand why people do what they do. The lack of awareness is terrible.

They are so insensitive and lack empathy. Despite all the good stories coming out of CU, this actions of theirs is starting to make one believe things ain’t as its always been painted to look from outside.Pastor Oyedepo needs to sanctions these bunch of emotional inept lecturers

What's insensitive in that?… simply condemning someone's appearance to an important event should now come specially?…I'm sure if he appears this way to your interview panel for a job, you won't spear him the rod…this is what makes them different, and it's working 4dem.

In a school like that? LOL
If he’s not okay it’s because he’s not been praying and attending enough bible study

There is still nothing wrong in that altercation…how else would they have asked him to appear properly 4 defense that requires his modesty. We simply apply sentiments to things from that angle. What would it cost him to have dressed properly, knowing fully well his sch rules?

Many Nigerian lecturers would kick Albert Einstein or Wole soyinka out of their class because of the hairstyle only to start famzing when they perceive success.

Aina should take responsibility for himself jare. If he wasn’t ready He should have reached out. And the same compassion you are insinuating here would have been available to him. Encourage young men to be responsible for themselves.

My lecturers are certified social workers and still don’t give a damn about our feelings and things we have gone through, they still discriminate and ignore most of the backward students.
