Student VS indigenes Clash In Ipetumodu,Osun State....

ATTENTION- Osun State Governor.

This memo should be looked into before the matter gets out of hand please!

''Hi Stella, something crazy is going on in one of the town under osun state. It's a place called ipetumodu, it's a 15min drive to Ile ife . Our school is situated at the roundabout of ipetumodu (Oduduwa university Ile ife) that's why most of the students who stay off campus rent their various houses in that town coz it's closer to school. My story is very long so please pardon my write up and please read

The town‎ has a deadline till 11pm for anyone to move about and after 11pm their hunters come out and check from street to street to guard the town.

 Anyone seen after 11pm would be beaten mercilessly. But there is partiality in what they do, they beat the students more and leave their indigenes. They even go to the extent of going about student houses to check those that forget to lock their main door. 

2years ago, they broke into my room around 1am and asked everyone in the building to come out, their reason is because we didnt lock our main door but what really happened was that the door got spoilt and we had not repaired the door yet so we had to just close it to be repaired the next morning, note that it was the main door but the individual rooms were locked.

 We were packed outside and they had us carry big stones and start hawking. We started shouting "ewa ra bread oo, ewa ra akara, ewa ra moimoi' "come and buy bread, akara, moimoi" and they will beat whoever doesn't shout on top of his or her voice. After then we begged them and they insisted that we had to pay for the bullet they shot in the air. We contributed the money among ourselves then gave them money, then we were released even after the punishment already given to us and if we ddnt give them money they will beat us and still lie against us that we were planning to harbour thieves and that was why we left our doors open. 

Stella that was 2years ago and that was the only experience I had with them but that's the way they've been doing till now. 

 So last week, they caught some students‎ coming in around past 11 and they were beaten mercilessly and later released, some of the students then went to the kabiesi (king) of ipetumodu to report what their hunters have been doing, beating students up and down, going to student houses to pack those that smoke India hemp and bring them to the main road to beat them like they are thieves and passersby watching them.

 The students then told the king everything, I really don't know what happened at the palace but that was what sprung up war between the hunters and the students which involved the ipetumodu OPC also. 

They claimed some students went to one of the hunters barbing shop to destroy his shop. Note that all these hunters have day jobs, some are barbers, electricians, plumbers, mechanics but most of them are okada riders and they laugh and play with the students during the day but covers their faces and turn terrors at night. 

So I think they recognised that particular barber who is a hunter hence destroyed his shop. Yesterday, they started going from student house to student house looking for the culprit but since they couldn't find the culprit they decided to take it all out on all the students living in their town. Now there's a new curfew time for student which is 8pm and indigenes can still stay till 10pm or whatsoever. 

We actually taught it was a joke until when we heard some students were beating mercilessly yesterday around past 8 for going out to buy something.

 They even beat any indigenes that take sides with the student and now they kept on shouting that the students are the robbers that's been stealing in that town. What do they have in their houses that student wants to steal? 

Do they keep diamonds in there? I don't get. 

In my own opinion I think it's the other way round, the indigenes are the thieves coz they have come to rob at my friends house before and I was there, laptops  and phones were stolen, mine included. And those thieves didnt come with masks, they didnt cover their faces. how on earth would a student want to steal and won't cover his face?. 

Now we students has been labelled as thieves and now they are at war with us beating any student they see from past 8pm. 

Please Stella help us ooo so that the govt can come to our aid ooo, now we've been banned from switching on the generator through out the night coz they said we are thieves that's where we get money to fuel the generator every time. 

For crying out loud, we are in a private university, most students here are from rich homes, and they barely have light in this village, there's been no light for 2weeks now and even if they bring the light it's only during the day and that's like for an hour or 2. They don't leave the light through the night.. the town is better now because of the students living there, now their one room apartment which used to be 7k is now 35k and some 40k, self contained is now 120k - 150k, students are the only reason why the town is a bit civilized now.

 The population of the whole town before is not even up to my street in lagos. Wtf is wrong with these  people Stella?

 Please we are tired, the government of Osun state needs to do something before a student gets killed with all  they are doing oooo.  

Thank you''.
