A practice by the University titled Maximum Scientific Shishi being a code name for torturing students that are alleged to have committed an offense. This practice is always moderated by the Hall Chairman

So sad

OAU: 500-level Student Tortured To Death
A 500-level Civil Engineering student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Okoli Ahize Chizoputam, has been killed over alleged phone theft on campus.
THE WHISTLER gathered that Chizoputam, 28, allegedly stole the phone at Awolowo Hall on Monday.
It was learnt that the final-year student was handed over to the leadership of the student union who further tortured him to death.
A source in the school said, “After Chizoputam was attacked by a mob, he was handed over to the student union leaders at Ken Saro-Wiwa hall. He was later tortured severely before he was rushed to the hospital where he gave up the ghost.”
The president of the OAU student union, Olayiwole Festus, confirmed the death of the final-year student.
He explained that “he was assaulted in a mob action at Awo Hall yesterday. The student was declared dead on arrival at the Emergency Medicine Department of OAU Teaching Hospital this afternoon.
“Preliminary investigations show that the deceased was accused of having stolen a phone. While we await an official report from the law enforcement agencies, I must state that this incident is a very sad one for Great Ife Students’ Union because our Union is not a Union of barbarians but that of intellectuals.
“Arrests and investigations of individuals suspected to be connected with the assault of the deceased are being made for consequent legal actions. Our Union does not support mob actions and justice must be served in this incident. Pending investigations of this unfortunate development, the activities of the Hall Executive Council of Awo Hall are suspended immediately.”
Similarly, the management of the institution through its spokesperson, Mr Abiodun Olarewaju, said an investigation is on and would make their position known after the investigation.

Facebook User, Olumide GlowVille explains the meaning of "Maximum Shi Shi"
Everyone who graduated from OAU Ife must be familiar with the term Maximum Shi Shi (MSS).
It is a form of jungle justice meted out to people accused of theft, cultism, or any form of vice the student union frowns at.
The modus operandi is to parade such person around the hostels to receive beating from students.
Victims of such treatment are usually beaten to a pulp, left with a swollen face and multiple injuries.
I remember the case of a guy caught in Awolowo Hall for stealing 5 laptops. Dude had successfully carted away the 5 laptops, he went back to take the laptop chargers when he was caught.
He was given maximum shishi and that was the last I ever saw or heard of him.
I have always wondered if that guy and others like him were handed over to school authorities afterward or they just left the school out of shame.
This morning, I read on Twitter that students of Awo Hall of OAU have tortured (Maximum Shi Shi) and killed a civil engineering student named Okoli Ahize Chizoputam aged 28, for allegations of phone theft.
In the case of Mr Okoli, the Awo Hall Chairman Badiora Timilehin and his social director Omisakin Seye were the moderators.
Sadly this despicable practice led to the death of young man as he was taken to the Teaching Hospital already Dead (BID)
The moderator have been arrested by DSS of Ife Central
I really hope this serves a lasting lesson to the student community and this barbaric practice is banished forever!
Jungle justice is never the right justice.
