  Shuaib Ibrahim Hanif reports, On Saturday 28 October 2023, amidst GST lectures and Hiking, Bakkasi Block A and B residents in unity conducted the first hostel sanitation to be held under the coordination of their Hall governors. At exactly 7:30 am, the Hall governor of Block A2 Bakasi Hostel, Abdurahman Abdulraheem went room by room to announce the commencement of the anticipated sanitation, meanwhile, most of the residents of Bakkasi Hostel were either preparing for the GST lecture or Hiking. Notwithstanding, he kept faith with the call and gradually only a few felt the need for their hygiene rather than lectures or Hiking.

By Abdullateef Bala Usman On Saturday evening October 20th, 2023, I unwillingly bid my phone farewell as it embarked on an unforeseen journey, one that would last until October 30, 2023. This sudden separation was a disconcerting experience for someone like me, a student whose daily life revolved around the convenience of a smartphone.
