Two people have been injured in a fight that ensued between Students Union Government leaders of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, on Tuesday.During the fight, the Vice President of the union, Miss Jacob Tosin, allegedly broke a bottle and stabbed the Social Director, Adedayo Emmanuel, in the arm. It was learnt that Tosin, who also received a headbutt from Emmanuel, had been admitted to the Seventh Day Adventist Hospital, Reports gathered that the fight started when a meeting was held on how to spend a sum of N3.8m released to the union by the university management.

 The student leaders had earlier been accused of misappropriation when they used a previous disbursement of N3m in June to purchase a bus.

Though the union executive members said the bus was purchased for N2.5m, students of the institution insisted that the bus was bought forN900,000.

The VP, popularly called Emerald, was said to have proposed that freshmen’s packages should be sponsored with part of the money. Her plan was allegedly rejected.

According to the executive member, who did not want to be named, Emerald flared up and attempted to leave the meeting, but was persuaded to stay till the end.He said, “She proposed N1.4m for the freshmen’s packages. We told her that when we get the dues for this session, we would look into her suggestion.
She flared up and was about leaving the meeting when Lamba (Emmanuel) jokingly told her not to leave and stood on her way. She slapped him twice and held his shirt.“We separated them and continued with the meeting, but the VP was still angry.

After a while, we just saw her rushing to open the refrigerator of the president; she was looking for a bottle. We thought it was a joke and someone pointed her attention to an empty bottle; she smashed it on the table. When the bottle didn’t break, she smashed it on the floor and took a part of the broken bottle, charged at Lamba and stabbed him in the arm. While we struggled to collect the bottle, Lamba also headbutted her.”When contacted on the telephone, Emerald’s phone was picked by her friend, one Dayo. She said, “This is not Emerald. This is her friend. She is not feeling fine at all. She can’t speak right now. When she is okay, she will getback to you.”Dayo explained that Emerald had been referred to the Seventh Day Adventist for treatment by the OAU Health Centre, where shewas initially rushed to.Attempts to reach Lamba proved abortive as calls put across to his telephone number didn’t go through.
