@donald_segun said: “This situation happened in the first place because someone refused to do his/her job. The student was humiliated and branded a criminal all because of the dereliction of duty of a lazy, incompetent civil servant.

The most irksome thing is we will never know the civil servant(s) responsible for the predicament of Basola and the other 4000 students who had the same problem. He will probably never be punished and the laziness inherent in staffs like that will continue to affect students in their thousands. This problem is enough to get the people involved sacked and prosecuted. Basola could have harmed himself if this was resolved.

Thank you for fighting for Basola and the rest of the affected students.”
