THE DILEMMA WE HAVE PLACED GOD

Someone was quoted as saying that “if God didn’t exist, man would have invented him”. One would wonder why we’d do that. Would it be so that our level of morality could be impeccable? Would we do that to help our weaker neighbors? Would we do that so that a few of us could claim exclusive rights to the divine? Would we do it to get revered? If God didn’t exist, would we have been able to resist being God to our people? Perhaps more questions than some people can answer, but some will agree that the answer to all of them is simple. From time immemorial, man has conquered man, butchered man, enslaved man to mention a few. If you do a little recap, you’d realize that “God” has been man’s reason for all this. It makes me wonder if He (God) has come to evolve, as a certain educated fool (not worthy of mention) proposed. He seems to have gone from wanting the heads of white cocks and lions’ teeth, to wanting the heads of innocent individuals. The thought of this kind of deity presiding over my affairs scares the heavens outta their positions to me. I mean, lemmi ask you. Who said you shouldn’t steal, take another man’s wife, lie or take a life? Your guess is as correct as mine, God. How then have we made such a merciful, just and divine being seem to lose His integrity by our own actions? Also, several times in history and even in our contemporary, man has openly vowed to protect his god/God. It makes me uneasy, praying for protection from a deity who needs me to protect him. Are we really protecting him or are we protecting the contents of our closets from the public? The Holy Bible is quoted as saying “the heart of man is desperately wicked”. At this point, a few of you are wondering why you should continue reading this piece. Hear me; If you have ever oppressed, cheated or lied and got away with it, you have at that point imposed yourself as a god of sorts on your victim, and we all are guilty. To my main topic. As citizens of this great nation, we have suffered a great deal for the sake of other people’s “Gods”. Be it the god of money, lust, envy or self. Even for the God we profess. I was in a short discussion with a couple of concerned citizens, they being from a certain institution under the influence of God, and they argued that their choice of leadership will always be influenced by the institution. Has that ever solved our problems as a nation? Let’s see how many northern leaders we’ve had ( knowing that none of them save one, belong(ed) to the southern institution under God), Yet we northerners have the worst standard of living, the largest outbreak of diseases, and the ever present leprosy. Is our battle still about God? Do we really know what the wrath of God looks like? His grace in modern times has made us take Him for granted. Our problem in this country has always been the plague of non-committal governance. We’ve let our land slip into the hands of chestless men, men without hearts!! And these people spread beyond ethnic and religious backgrounds. They are the enemy and they (the oppressors) have been God’s enemy from time immemorial. Anytime He waged war through men, it was in response to oppression. Should God put those of us who speak of our disdain for wrong leadership in positions of leadership, will we change anything? Think about it god.

TOP 10 SIGNS SHE LIKES YOU

Indications of girls are generally in encrypted form and guys should be clear enough to decrypt them by substantial tools. Follow these points to grab the chance but if you return back with the face of monkey, then sorry dude you’ve missed the boat. The PINGING game: Everyday, frequently, in fact, twice in hour…..S**t man, you’re trapped and can’t hide your a** at any cost. She wants to trespass the limit of friendship with PERSONALIZED messages and love quotes. “You know, today I went to blah-blah restaurant to eat blah-blah and it was soooo delicious, what have you been doing, good luck for your exam, ok time to sleep…night night.” Should I respect her emotion or should I play with them…Dude, the ball is in your court. 9. Inquires about your personal life: However, a gentlewoman never asks and a gentleman never says but prepare yourself to confront some straight shots such as “dating history” or “previous girlfriend.” Awww….what should you do now..ignore/next/forget her? Mate, if she is digging your childhood, education, family or important things that occurred in your life, then it’s a straightforward signal that she is interested in your future’s deal. 8. She laughs at your stupid jokes: Definitely, she is trying to connect a string when she laughs at all your crappy stories and stupid jokes with her entire body (her giggles are often animated). Your success rate is increasing exponentially because she’s going to laugh at anything you say. Dude, check it out once again that why is she laughing? She likes you, you’re spicy, you have something in your teeth or just because she don’t want you to feel bad. But speaking honestly, you should not look for any logic in it because she is actually obsessed by your magical effect. 7. She admires you often: This statement has now commuted in an international norm. ”Wow..is that your bike, I really love your hair, you know you smell heavenly”. Oh, knock off the BS and get to the point directly. Life is full of ironical s**t and still she wants to hop in, then probably it’s a romantic connotation. And if you’re still confused, then move ahead and follow the dialogue of Al Pacino from ‘Scent of a Woman’ – Remember, when in doubt…..f**k. 6. If you’re with other girls she gets jealous: “Why were you talking with her, I hate that b**ch.” No need to worry man, jealousy is the inborn disease in women and also they are extremely offensive in nature. Dude, she can’t ever allow someone else to pay attention on you, which she possesses. The attitude of jealousy hints that you’re important for her and she’s afraid of losing you. 5. She likes spending time with you: There is no big deal if she wants to meet you nearly everyday to spend some quality time with you. I bet, if she is interested in you then she’ll never decline your offer for outing (she’s not like a tigress searching for flesh). C’mon brat, secure your future plans as this one is the perfect fortune to make a move. 4. She touches you often: Okay, gals are not so different from boys (apart from spare anatomical characteristics and a bit better odor) and they also let themselves go. She often leans towards you as the tower of Pisa and yeah, she may be ahead enough to call you for a nightcap. However, there can be minimal risk of rejection but grab the chance and move ahead for the kill. 3. She exposes the every single thing of her life: It’s a stereotype that girls are emotional by nature and also, they can’t sustain the pain. But champ, they are master in ventilating their sentiments according to circumstances. But whenever, she reveals her private life then make sure that she trusts you and feel secure as you’re something very valuable for her. 2. Her eyes set on you and only you: Goddamn, now she’s is paying full attention on you. If her eyes are totally focused on you while conversation, then congrats bro, it clearly indicates that she is genuinely thinking about you. And she is actually on your radar, when she is licking her lips while deep-eye contact. 1. She cares for you: No doubt, care is always offered by family members, friends and old timers but when SHE says that “It’s so cold and why ain’t you wearing your jacket” or “why are you looking ill, haven’t slept last night” (often she cares even more than your mother), then man….she’s unquestionably in love with you. Beyond the normal civility, this is her boundless love.

CHRONICLES OF AN ABUSITE: GETTING EXPELLED ISN’T REALLY DIFFICULT

In my first year on campus, I think I tried everything there was to try in order to see the full extent of the law in ABU (that’s if any existed). Believe it or not, stopping at the fountain to do anything at all is against the law, walking around girls’ hostels after 12midnight is also. Well my story today is about how I almost got expelled for what you have never tried I bet you. On the third week after resumption, I was hurrying from my room in Suleiman Hall A2 40 to watch a match in Social Center (Aliyu Mustapha social center for you non-Abusites) and in the process, I locked my keys in the room. It really wasn’t a problem at the point I was leaving to watch the match as in my naïve brain then, I could get it out easily when my roommates (who were all away for the weekend) got back. At the end of the match, what was a good victory for Arsenal Fc turned out to be sour for me when I realized just then that my room was on the topmost floor of the block and there was no way I could use the open window. Immediately, a brilliant idea crossed my mind. There were yaro-boys everywhere looking to make little cash from any job one threw at them. I quickly found myself one and asked him if he could climb through the back of the block, the way had seen Jackie do several times ( In-between the columns all the way to the top) . Like hell even if he had been training for the day I’d ask him to do such, he still wouldn’t have made it. Anyway, he was two rooms up when a man turned round the block and asked the boy to get down. Since he was in plain clothes, it didn’t occur to me that he could have been a security personnel. I challenged him and he just quietly bundled I and the boy to their post in front of Suleiman Hall. There I was told to write a statement and I foolishly did. I gave every information in crystal form, even where my father worked as at then. I expected to leave the place after the statement, but when shifts changed and I was still there, that was when it occurred to me that I was in trouble. I had handed my ORIGINAL ADMISSION LETTER (which they got from the room with magic) to the hall admin and I had no room to sleep in. Like hell I probably wasn’t going to need the key till Monday as it was a Saturday. By 6pm, I started to plead my case and beg. I was getting close to tears when a gentle man in the office explained what kind of mess I had found myself in. he explained that they believed I was in collaboration with the boy and we were trying to break into the room to steal stuff. I couldn’t believe my ears!! I had just given them my admission letter from the same room but obviously it wasn’t enough to clear me. Also, apparently there had been an incident on the next block and by my single act of foolishness, I had put the poor boy in the same case of theft I had roped myself into. I was sad and confused because I was told stealing was only punished with expulsion from this school. I tried to call everyone I knew but they were all jambites like me who hadn’t even matriculated. How could they help me or even dare show up in a classic Nigeria Police case. How I got out of that trouble till today, I really can’t tell but by 9pm, they handed me the keys I locked in and told me they would keep their eyes on me…..well they kept to their every word.

THE DILEMMA OF A PHARMACY STUDENT

Gosh…and the weekend is over. Long time no see abusites, I think this was the only week that actually ended since ASUU pursue us back and that’s the real dilemma of a Pharmacy student in ABU Zaria, and pardon me for not complaining.

Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences located at the so called ‘Bermuda’ axis believe me you comprises of the most distinguished abusites all-rounder. Don’t mind those engine boiz that claim harsh conditions (mostly lectures) but still maintain swag, if a Pharmacy student that is having lectures 7am to 6pm, still not that I’m complaining displays full swag all those engine boiz will comot for road.

If it is rocking till-day-break trust me my people always dey there, provided all things being equal (test no dey tomorrow morning). You might even begin to wonder t-d-b for jacking yesterday now t-d-b for partying, I’m telling you pharmacy students get mind. Still not that we’re complaining.

If you haven’t known yet, the pass mark for a normal pharmacy course is correct 50% and that’s excluding the (abnormal) 60% courses. Plainly speaking, if you score 59 in that course na next year be that, that’s if you are lucky it’s not a pre-requisite which might amount to one more year in this internment. (Still you scored 59 in the course oo). I haven’t complained yet oo.

Talking about pre-requisites sef, if you are looking for a faculty with the longest chains of pre-requisites then have a seat, you’re home and dry. Let me explain hear, in simple English if you fail that stupid Jambito course PHYS 131 once (physics student no mind me oo) na plus 1 year in ABU be that, if you carry am again na plus 2 be that, and if you’re so unfortunate to do ZAKS again…do the maths. So don’t worry if you see a reg. no. U99 in your class, na condition cause am. Nobody has complained yet.

Upon all this, the confidence of the Pharmacy Student is still oozing all over the campus. Taking a look at a large number of political offices in ABU, from SRC to NANISS, NAKS, NAKATSS….to name but a few its no gainsaying that we are the backbone of all these associations and yet every semester Pharmacy Students always do graduate. Creating time out of that no time, we have never complained.

When it comes to super duper gals, common do I need to tell you that? Yeah ABU gals are hawt, but mehn…Pharmacy gals are red blitzing hawt then, with correct IQ to go with, and despite the rigours and vigour that hotness hasn’t complained yet.

So next time you see any pharmacy student near you, abeg hail them, they are the jack of all trades as long as ABU is concerned and still keep that swag, sociality, partying, politics, intelligence, confidence, sense of humour and instant maturity intact.

We don’t complain but ‘As Men of Honour…’ yeah ‘We Join Hands’
