See what Unilorin did in 2007 because of Fuel Crisis

Is this still possible?

During the fuel crisis of 2007, the university management came up with 4 simple but very effective measures to ease the transportation of students and staffs during the fuel crisis saga.

Below is an copy of the circular posted on the website in 2007 as found on the wayback machine.

THE CURRENT FUEL CRISIS AND UNILORIN
Administration’s Palliative Measures
The university Management has noted, with concern, the hardship being experienced by the generality of the University community, especially the students, who are more hit by the hardship occasioned by the current fuel scarcity and its attendant effects on transportation.
Although the fuel problem is a national issue, the University Administration, as a responsible and responsive body, considers it appropriate to take prompt remedial action, after due consultation with staff and students.
To this end, the University Administration has, therefore, come up with the following palliative measures to cushion the effects of the current fuel crisis:
-          It has arranged for more buses outside those plying the University route with the view to increasing the fleet of vehicles on the route.
-          In the mean time, it has, in consultation with the relevant unions, suspended any kind of road transport unionism and liberalized transportation to and from the University Permanent site to allow for more willing vehicles to ply the university route.
-          The University has also procured fuel to be sold at subsidized rates to transporters who are willing to ply the University routes.
-          Arrangements have also been put in place to sell fuel to staff to ease their transportation problem.
The University Administration, therefore, appeals to both the staff and students to see these measures as concerted efforts to ease the problems brought about by the current fuel crisis, while it will continue to explore other ways of bringing relief to staff and students.
  

We sincerely hope that the Unilorin Management will bring about the enforcement of the second measure of suspending all kinds of road transport unionism and liberalize transportation to and from the Unilorin main campus as the unions have found ways of creeping back into the school system even working with the Students Union Government. 

We say NO to transport Unionism in Unilorin!
