Reactions have continued to trail the ZHPO’s special report on the food poisoning situation in Zikhall, which was reported on Saturday 15th of July, 2023, as many students have come out to add their own experience and ordeals after eating at the cafeteria.
A large number of reactions have trailed the news report with many given their thoughts on the situation in the comment section of the report, while others have had similar reactions on various Whatsapp platforms about their experience of food poisoning from the cafeteria.
One of the respondent in the comment section named, Jackson, took us through how four of his church members fell victim to the issue of food poisoning at the cafeteria in the last one month, leaving them hospitalized for days.
Another respondent, Ceewhy, shed more light on the situation ” I was also a victim of this… 4 other of my friends are suffering from this as I type.”
Other similar responses to the articles have been coming in thick and fast, with a few of them captured in images below:
In reaction to the report, The Student Union President, Tobilola Samson (HOST) in a reply, acknowledged the situation report and promised to take up the report. He promised to set up a union task force, with units that will be saddled with health complains which includes cafeteria inspection and grading. He also assured that he has discussed with the deputy dean of students and promised moves are being made to curtail the situation.
One would hope that, the recent outcry and the call to action will be taken up by the student union as promised, but also that the school and hall management should find means of rectifying the situation to the barest minimum. It is best to find a lasting solution to this problem, as one would not want a case of a more severe occurrence to rare its ugly head in the nearest future.
