Agricultural and Environmental Engineering Students Society OAU Speaks On Collection Of Grey Water At Mozambique Hall

            On the 30th day of January, 2019 at around 11 a.m, Mozambique Queens of this great institution  led a protest to the Division of Students' Affairs, OAU. The reason being that a male student was earlier found collecting grey water from the hall. 

The male student - Rabiu Olalere Musa is a final year student of the department of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering. And it is a common knowledge that all final year students are to undergo a research project. Mr. Rabiu is not an exception. His project topic is :"CHARACTERIZATION AND REUSE OF GREYWATER IN OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY HOSTELS" and he is being duly supervised by a senior lecturer in the department. This requires that he goes to all halls of residence in the school to collect greywater to use to carry out this project and in realizing this, he headed to the Division Of Students Affairs to learn how to gain access to the greywater. He was asked to write a letter which he did and there's a copy for everyone who wants to see. He informed the porters of the halls and showed them the approved letter from the DSA and his request was granted. 

It must be said however that today is not the first time he's collecting the greywater from the halls without an hitch. 

Universities are for learning and carrying out research is one of them. Growing crops with greywater might be new in this country but it's already being practiced worldwide and there are pictures to show that the planted crops are doing well. 

A media outlet - Great Ife Watch reported that his whereabouts is unknown. This is not so and it is so saddening that a media outlet of such could report a biased news as Mr. Rabiu did an exam today at around 12:30pm and even reported at the DSA hours before the exam. 

There's another claim by some group of students that he was sent by the Dean, DSA to collect the greywater for diabolical use. This is nothing but a blatant lie. 

We are imploring the generality of students to please desist from rumours that can tarnish the image of the law-abiding, God-fearing Rabiu. Any peaceful questions can be directed to the department of Agricultural and Environmental Engineering and would be duly answered.
