.
Fellow Lions and Lionesses,
In the spirit of a new and blessed week, we bring you greetings. We want to thank God for a very wonderful weekend and also thank our amiable Vice-chancellor, Prof. Chukwuma Ozumba for his efforts so far channeled towards improving students welfare. This is very evident in the constant power supply we have been receiving since after our break and also, the water project that was completed over the weekend. We are much delighted and very grateful with this development. The VC has shown responsiveness towards matters that primarily concern students welfarism, and we are proud of him. Ndi Igbo siri na " eto dike na nke omere, ome òzó." We encourage him to do more.
For those of us that are not aware, the most basic needs of students this government promised have been provided. These needs include; constant power supply, availability of clean water, students I.D cards, security, e.t.c. In one of our press releases we enjoined students not to be antsy as all hands were being placed on deck to ensure improved welfarism.
Talking about the water project, the works department is through with the pipe fixing and water has started running evidently. Now, it should be on record that any day water does not run, we should all know that the problem is not internal(from school) rather it is from the Enugu state water corporation. We have been given the tickets to enjoy perpetual supply of water till we graduate, courtesy of the VC, prof Ozumba and the SUG 2014/2015 led by Comr. Ilogebe.
For those of us that haven't gotten the news of the bio-data collection for our ID card production, please, we will state once more; go to ICT beside Access bank PLC and submit your details.

The name of Messi saves kidnapped Argentine in Nigeria
The agricultural engineer was abducted on a deserted
road in Kontagora last week but has now regained his freedom after
spending three days in captivity
An Argentine man who was kidnapped last week in Kontagora, northern
Nigeria, has spoken about how chanting the name of his famous compatriot
Lionel Messi helped him during the travail.Santiago Lopez Menendez, 28, an agronomist and staff of Flour Mills of Nigeria, worked on two farms in the Kontagora area but was kidnapped on June 24 by men riding on motorcycles as he traveled on a lonely road in the town of Machagu between Mokwa and Kontagora.
As police swung into action to rescue him, the man also found common ground with his abductors who thought he was North American but could not communicate with him in the local Hausa language.
The mention of ‘Messi, Messi, Messi’ was able to establish him as an Argentine and it gave his frustrated kidnappers clue before a ransom was finally paid and he was released three days later.
"Tell them to thank Messi, his name is what saved me," Menendez told his brother according to Clarin.
He is now in the Argentine Embassy in Abuja with his girlfriend Alejandra Perkins and his brother Jorge and will return to his country.
During the Nigerian Civil War between 1967-1970, combattants called for a ceasefire when famous Brazilian footballer Pele and his club Santos played an exhibition match in the country

Tech: Good news! Google to Bring Free Wi-Fi to the World
Google is rolling out free wifi in New York as part of a trial the company hopes will eventually span across the whole of the world.
The internet giant has even gone as far as to set up a company specifically dedicated to the task, called Sidewalk Labs.
How will they do this you ask – through turning 10,000 of the big apple’s old phone booths into ad-supported ‘Wi-Fi pylons’.
These converted booths are also intended to provide cell-phone charging, free domestic phone calls and a touch screen information hub about the city and transit directions.
According to Bloomberg News, these ‘pylons’ will be rolled out across New York this autumn.
