Christian students at the Federal University of Kashere (FUK) in Gombe State have faced persistent challenges securing a permanent place of worship, even as several mosques operate across campus. Since the university opened in 2011, these students have relied on temporary venues, often coping with overcrowding, schedule changes, and disruptions.
Initially, students used Lecture Theatre FCLT 1, but growing numbers soon made the space inadequate. They later moved to the Multipurpose Sports Complex, which could accommodate more worshippers. Recently, however, the hall was locked for renovations without prior notice, prompting online debates about fairness and campus inclusiveness.
Observations on campus show multiple mosques strategically located, while Christian students continue without a permanent chapel. In response, the Fellowship of Christian Students has opened a crowdfunding account to support the construction of a dedicated worship centre.
University officials maintain that land has been allocated for the chapel and deny any discrimination. Nevertheless, students feel the delays highlight broader concerns about planning and equality on campus. For now, worship continues in temporary spaces as hope remains that a permanent chapel will soon become a reality.
