A student of Imo State University who had just written his final papers, lost his life during the ceremony to celebrate his graduation.
The ceremony which consists of pouring dirty water on the fresh graduate, turned into a tragedy when in trying to avoid the dirty water he ran over a soak-away pit, fell into it and drowned.
What seem to be jubilation turned into a gathering of sorrow when the victim was running away from a number of students who pursued after him to pour dirty water on him. In that quest to dodge the water being poured on him, he fell into a soak-away pit and got drowned.
It was further gathered that the dirty water from the pit is partially passing over a light current as the pit is dug beside their transformer where earth-wire is buried.
Pouring of water has been banned in schools but some students would not obey this.
Many students in this light unaccepted celebration of final papers have been injured, poured acid and some other dangerous liquids while some other persons have gone to the great beyond via this.
I think every final year student should learn from this as well as those who dedicate them to pouring water on university finalists.
