A lady, simply identified as Ene, has given reasons why she dropped out of the Birmingham University, citing unpleasant experiences.

Ene, in a post on social media, on Tuesday, revealed that she dropped out of Birmingham University as she could no longer bear the terrible conditions.

She wrote, “I went to a private university. Phones were not allowed, girls weren’t allowed to make their hair below their shoulders, you cannot wear slippers before 4pm.

“You cannot cook in the hostel so you must buy 3 meals everyday, you will be suspended for missing chapel, you will be suspended for getting abused, once you get to school, you cannot leave again unless you sign an exeat that your parents call to confirm.

“Your department can literally drop you without telling you. When you get to 500 level, they come and tell you to switch to 200 level in another department because your results were poor. And you’ll pay fresh school fees.

“Security men will parade and if they see a boy and girl standing together, they’ll exploit them for money or threaten to set them up for expulsion.”

She noted that she could not cope with all the rules and regulations and had to drop out.

So which school she dey go now?

I mistakenly mistook this for University of Birmingham or Birmingham City University, but thought to myself, Oyinbo kids would not ever accept this nonsense.

I do not know of a Birmingham University where this sort of nonsense is the norm. I wonder if they meant Bingham University.

Exactly my question. Is she a graduate now? Yes or No.

She may not understand that the World is a VERY competitive place. No one cares about your failures unless you tell is as part of your success story.

don't u think it's cool to specify d country d university is located

Many might b making mistakes, I confuse at first till I read some Nigerian factors there

Looks like Bingham Uni.Yes??

I think the school is in Nasarawa state near Abuja. But that No 8.is somehow

It's Bingham University and not Birmingham University.

Private universities in Nigeria are toxic.

That's a prison

Not a school at all

Damn!

Birmingham university?
This look like what a religious private uni will do.
It can't possibly be the popular Birmingham uni.

Meaning some private universities here are more lenient

Ok

Most of the universities in this country owned by church people, run it like secondary school boarding

Not cooking in an hostel is also discipline?

Nairaland would for Birmingham University and would still push derailing Post about the same school for FP.

Anyways, if the lady can't give 4years out of her life to focus and study, then let her Federal University and stop complaining

temitope27:
If this happens in Nigeria, some people would have said such things doesn't happen in an advance society

The school is in Nigeria.

What are you guys saying?

If all that she indicated is true, then she is right to drop out of such school.

What kind of higher institution is that?

Discipline is the key to real success...whatever that cannot kill you,will only make you stronger.

If you decide to go to a Church school, then you should accept the and restrictions that comes with it!


ECWA Bingham University, New Karu, Nassarawa is a private University not too far from the outskirts of Abuja!
