COVIC19 PANDEMIC TRAUMA IN UNIVERSITY OF UYO

The covic19 pandemic effect was confirmed on the 22th February, 2020 in Nigeria and the first genesis of the outbreak in China. Before the outburst of the worldwide corona virus pandemic, the world was at that point managing a learning crises, as confirmed by high quantities of poverty. With the high spread of the corona virus, education system is confronting another crises and has been mandated to be closed. Extending school shutting down affected both students, those selling both inside and outside the school premises, keke napep drivers, food vendors, business shops to be mentioned but a few. Just as the hike in fuel price will affect all economic activities in the country, covic 19 pandemic really affected people mentioned above as most of their services rendered and good bought were patronized by students. The sculpture seen above was moulded by a student after the covic 19 pandemic to depict the effect caused by it to our educational sector as the duration of stay of student in the campus was extended, school calendar was distorted and businesses around the school premises could not meet up and had to shut down during the lockdown.

PROTECTION GUARDS AGAINST COVIC 19 PANDEMIC

After the pandemic has been reduced and school was asked to resume. In other to curb the menace, universities was mandated to install the above seen picture since the disease is mostly spread in the gathering of people . The above seen pictures was installed near the school gate so that students will have to wash their hands with water and detergent thoroughly and the use of sanitizer and nose mask was made compulsory for students and lecturers to avoid the spread of the pandemic.
This posed a lot of difficulties in the aspect of studying cueing under hot sun and cold weather to observe this rule in other to avoid the spread. And by so doing, time was consumed and student could not meet up some of their activities, some missed their lectures as the result of the long cue .

The wash hand besin seen above was also mounted near the hostel for students to wash their hands as often as the move in and out the hostel.
The pandemic really affect the life of student as the greeting pattern was changed, sitting settings in the lecture Halls, the steady wear of the nose mask was so uncomfortable to some people and many more effect and my prayer is that such experience should not occur again.
