A flood has inflicted extensive damage at the University of Ibadan, ruining books, food items, and other vital resources.
On Friday, the flood caused chaos within the university, resulting in the destruction of properties valued at millions of naira.
Items destroyed included important documents and other valuable possessions.
According to PUNCH’s investigations on Saturday morning, the floodwaters submerged several hostels at the institution, leading to the destruction of property.
A student of the institution, who preferred anonymity, said, “The most affected hall of residence is Awo Hostel where about 16 rooms in the underground floor were completely submerged with students’ property floating on the water.”
Another source said, “The students’ foodstuffs, documents and property, especially those that went for examinations were destroyed.
“The flood took over students’ rooms, toilets, kitchens and all the entrances to their hostel.
“The flood took over my friend’s room, and destroyed everything she has, including the ones in her cupboard.”
