"No Resumption Date Announced By Us Yet- OAU PRO,Olanrewaju Abiodun

The Public Relations Officer of Obafemi Awolowo University has said the university has not announced any resumption date, according to him resumption date will be duely communicated to students."When we find time, we will announce the resumption date, no date as of now" Olanrewaju said

This is coming even as he failed to discredit the ASUU 56days working leave, instead he maintained a silent stance on it and categorically stated that, the university has not announced any date for resumption.

HARD TALK: A million Naira to study Chemistry in Covenant Uni. But yet No Invention!

By Cephas

I saw this tweet online. Although funny and might sound kind of harsh, but its actually something to think about, my opinion though.
See tweet:


Whose fault is it? Are the students to blame or the lecturers or the country itself..

ACJOAU LIBRARY: iPhone Journalism

Courtesy:ACJOAU Mobile Library


iPhone journalism is a relatively new and even controversial mean of photojournalism, which involves the use of pictures taken and edited on iPhone by professional or non-professional photographers.

In recent years, as the social media become major platforms on which people receive news and share events, the iPhone photography is gaining popularity as the primary tool for online visual communication. An iPhone is easy to carry and always in the pocket, and the immediacy in taking pictures can reduce the intervention of the scene and subjects to a minimum. With the assistance of abundant applications, the photographers can achieve a highly aesthetic way of conveying messages. Once the pictures are uploaded onto the social media, photographers can immediately expose their work to a wide range of audiences and receive real-time feedback from them. With a large number of active participants online, the pictures could also be spread out in a short period of time, thus evoking profound influence on society.

Having noticed the advantages of the combination of social media andiPhoneography, some well-known newspaper, news magazines as well as professional photojournalists decided to employ iPhone journalism as a new approach. When theLondon Bombings happened in July 2005, for the first time, both the New York Times and theWashington Post ran photos on their front pages made by citizen journalists with camera phones.[40] As the work of witnesses and survivors, the images were less the outcome of documentary intent than a response to a traumatic shock.[40] These photos represented 'vivid, factual accounts of history as it explodes around us',[40] as described by Washington Post journalist Robert MacMillan. In another instance, when the superstorm Sandy hit the East Coast, causing great damage and casualty, Time sent out five photographers with iPhones to document the devastation. Photographers dived deep into the site and captured pictures in close proximity to the storm and human suffering. One of the shots, raging ocean waves collapsing on Coney Island in Brooklyn, taken by Benjamin Lowy, made the cover of Time’s November 12 issue.[41] Then in 2013, the Chicago Sun-Times got rid of its entire staff of 28 photographers, includingJohn H. White, a Pulitzer Prize winner in photography. The newspaper cited viewers shifting towards more video as a reason. They then employed freelance photographers and required them to train in how to use an iPhone for photography to fill the gap. Some viewers online were quick to point out an at times reduction in quality in comparison to the newspaper's previous full-time professionals.[42][43][44]

From the editorial gestures of the mainstream media, placing iPhoneography on the front page and expanding their territory to social media, we can tell that iPhone is no longer a mere purveyor of amateur imagery and iPhone photography is gaining prevalence in the photojournalism industry.
