TEN (10) TYPES OF PEOPLE YOU'LL MEET IN UNIBADAN
The
good thing however, is that this stress won’t kill you but prepare you for the
mainstream world. Besides, others have passed through this system and are still
alive to tell the story.
One good thing about the University is that you’ll meet a lot of people from different walks of life. Some will inspire you; others would make you laugh while a few would just irritate you! For this week, I have compiled a list of ten people you’re almost definitely going to meet in your four, five or say six years sojourn in the university that prides herself as the best in Nigeria.

(1.)
The Debater
There’s
never peace or the tiniest form of tranquility in the company of the debater. I
don’t know how they do it, but they have a way of starting an argument from the
most ridiculous of subjects. They would argue with anyone about anything until
they feel they’ve won a point or their opposition concedes, either out of
boredom or succumb to their undying argumentative energy! The debater is the
guy who specializes in questioning your every proposition. This is the type
that starts e-fights online.
(2.)
The Guy You Just Love To Hate
You
can’t really point to a cogent reason as to why you don’t like him. You just
know you do not like him. Sometimes, you try to make yourself like him but
despite all your efforts, you seem to be repulsed by an unseen force. If you
know anyone like this, please refer him to the closest MFM branch; there must
be a spiritual mask covering his face!
(3.)
The Clown
You’ll
always laugh in the company of a clown. They have a way of making your day.
Most times, you don’t know if you’re laughing because of their jokes or at
their stupidity. Often than not, you get amused by their mere appearance! If
you’re unfortunate however, you might meet the one who combines the role of a
clown with that of a retard. This one will annoy more than amaze you. They are
known to ask useless questions and you always have a hard time explaining
things to this type.
(4.)
The Professional Chef
Sometimes,
you’ll think they might be studying culinary arts until you realize culinary
arts is not available in the first and best University. They rarely use the
Cafeteria. You’ll find them in the Kitchenettes almost all the time. And they
don’t just cook, they actually cook like they run a restaurant! Separate stew;
separate vegetable sauce and even Amala or Poundo! And don’t forget to
add sizeable chunks of meat! The good thing about the chef is that you won’t
‘want’ if you’re close to him because he will be your… (lol)
(5.)
The Game Freaks
These
ones can game for a living! You’ll find them gaming till-day-break (T.D.B)
while the jackos are studying from morning to night (M.T.N). Most times you
find them in a group discussing the new features in the update of Assassins
Creed. At other times you’ll find them at your faculty lounge busy with Make-up
Artist or Candy Crush!
(6.)
The Jacko and the Efiwe
If
you’re a returning student, you must have called someone an efiwe or Jacko
in the past. If you’re a fresher, the jacko a.k.a jackometre is the
one you see whenever you go to the reading room or when you visit Kenneth Dike
Library. Whenever they have a nightmare, it’s either a book is chasing them or
their grandmother is tormenting them for under reading! I had a roommate who
always slept with a heavy textbook on his face – sometimes I wonder how he
breathes; other times, I simply remove the book. I once said good morning to
him and his reply was the definition of electrolysis. The manner at which they
study would make you think they’re aiming at 8 points. If you know anybody like
that, please tell them they won’t score more than a 7 point! *seriously,
Eeeleri 8 point* *FYI: CGPA o jawo mo ooo entrepreneurship ti take over*
(7.)
The Special Case
The
special case is the voice you hear at midnight in your hall of residence,
shouting, “Ye! Yeeee! Egba mi o Yeeeee!” They are the cocks crowing at 11:59pm
and the dogs barking uncontrollably! The special case is that guy who asks you,
“how was your night?” at 5pm! She is the clingy girl in your department that
gives everybody the feeling you’re dating! At first you might be tempted to
think they’re plagued or something of the sort, but with time, you’ll
understand that there’re just ‘special’. You’ll find them at the block D of Zik
hall or at the C block of Indy.
(8.)
The Eternal Borrower
This
one will ask for your toothpaste and even your toothbrush! When you see them
wearing different shades of eye-shadow every day, don’t think they have so
many, they only borrow from different people! They would constantly borrow
almost everything, from salt to knorr chicken; from wristwatch to necklace and
even perfume! I was (un)fortunate to meet one in my 100l days. He smelt
different every day. I admired his ‘nature of variety’ until I found out he had
a perfume-borrowing-roster! Chai! Na by force?
(9.)
The Holier Than Thou
These
ones would condemn you pinging in class but would readily use the toilet
without flushing! They specialize in analyzing every of your actions, pointing
out your ‘sins’ to you. Sometimes, you’ll be like, “shey na because of me
them create you?” Other times, you’ll just feel like hitting them hard and
damning the consequences whatsoever! Iyalaya SDC, igbaju ti take over
joor!
(10.)
That Person You Just Love To Like
There’s always that one
person you like. You don’t know if it’s the looks that attract you or whether
it’s their great sense of humour. You just know you love them! He/she is that
person you anticipate chatting with. The close friend of yours that always
reserves a seat for you. The humble guy that walks you to your hall of
residence almost every day. These ones are nice to a fault! He/she is anyone
you dread losing!-Prof Gee
