FUNAAB SUG Issues Notice on Prohibition of “Drop” Services During Rush Hours; The Students’ Union Government (SUG) of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) has issued a directive addressing transportation challenges faced by students on campus.
The Issue
It has been observed that the practice of hiring cabs or tricycles for personal use, commonly referred to as “drop,” has become increasingly common, especially during peak rushing hours.
While this practice offers convenience for a few individuals, it has contributed to:
- Increased congestion at junctions and parks.
- Longer queues for students waiting for transport.
- General frustration and delays in movement across campus.
The Directive
In light of these issues, the SUG has prohibited the use of “drop” services during rushing hours. Students are urged to comply with this directive in order to improve the transportation experience for everyone.
Implementation and Monitoring
To ensure compliance, the Students’ Union Government is working in collaboration with the Nigeria Safety Cadet, FUNAAB Command. Cadet officers will be stationed at designated junctions to monitor transportation flow, maintain order, and enforce the directive.
Advisory to Students
- Students are strongly advised to arrive at the park early, especially those with 9:00 AM classes, in order to secure transportation without delays.
- Cooperation and understanding from the student body are essential to the success of this initiative.
