UNILORIN SUG notice to students on booking of private hostel bedspaces

The Students Union Government of the University of Ikorin has released a notice to all students regarding booking of private hostel bedspaces.

The notice reads, "We are concerned about the unguided pressure from our colleagues (Fresh and returning) to secure private hostel bed spaces on campus, which violate university culture and ethics. While we understand the demands and implications for timely settlement and student safety, this act allows violation of rules and exposes students to avoidable extortion.

Recall that no student is eligible for hostel accommodation until good standing results is approved and the official resumption date is announced by the senate of the University.

However, we will like to keep you abreast of the following information;

- Private hostel application forms should not exceed N1,000.

- Students who have paid for bedspaces should demand a refund or forfeit the payment.

- Report any intimidation by hostel staff to the Student Affairs Unit or Students' Union.

- Approved hostel rate for next academic session based on categorization, services and facilities available will be released soon, and students will pay utilities.

- High-energy consuming items are banned to reduce electricity consumption.

These items are: Hot plates, Toasting Machine, Electric Oven, Boiling ring, Electric Pressing Iron of 300watts or less.

- A N10,000 caution deposit is required, refundable to residents if no damages is caused to hostel property(ies).

We are committed to ensuring a peaceful, restful, and impactful environment."
