I still don't understand all these student cults and their clashes. I mean, these clashes could be so bloody. 
Lifeless bodies of two men were discovered on Thursday at Sango area of Ilorin, Kwara State.
According to the state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Fabode Olufemi, two rivalry cult groups, allegedly from Kwara State Polytechnic, clashed on Wednesday night.
Olufemi said when the police were informed about the clash, they intervened.
He stated that surprisingly two dead men were discovered in a nearby bush.
According to him, one of them was beheaded.
He stated that the corpses had been deposited at a mortuary, adding that investigations into the matter had begun.
But the Public Relations Officer of Kwara State Polytechnic, Yunus Abdulkadir, in a telephone interview with our correspondent on Thursday said students of the institution were not involved in the death of the two men.
He added that the corpses were not discovered near the institution.

Rabiatu Thompson is a public primary school in the heart of Surulere. Way back in 2011, Etisalat Nigeria demolished the school’s ‘vomitable’ (just coined that word; it means: dreadful!)  structure, re-designed and re-constructed it. Not kidding! Before you say Linda has come again, check out the before and after photos *pouting*.
Etisalat also inspected every stage of the construction work until the company was satisfied with the new environment which is more suitable for a child to learn in.

Etisalat, the fastest growing telecommunications company in Nigeria, made a decision three years back to make education one of its priority areas, and created the Adopt-a-School initiative as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility CSR to Nigeria.

Babatunde Fashola, the Lagos State governor, was represented at the re-commissioning of the school by the Honourable Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Olayinka Oladunjoye. The CEO, Etisalat Nigeria, Mr. Steven Evans was there also along with Board Member of the company, Mr. Kayode Sofola.
Etisalat Nigeria has now adopted three schools, namely: Akande Dahunsi Memorial High School, Ikoyi; Edward Blyden Primary School, Lagos Island and Rabiatu Thompson Memorial Primary School, Surulere. All these schools are in Lagos and all have been adopted for life.
