TO AUNTY SISI, “CHOPPING” HERE AND THERE, ‘WITH NO STRINGS AND EXPECTATIONS ATTACHED’

Don’t call me a fine gentleman when I hold out the door for you. Don’t think for a quarter of a second that I’ll ever live up to what that word suggests should you eventually agree to abolish that horrible family name of yours in exchange for a better one, mine; because when you eventually do (which you would in the end), I would not only make you pay for making this

THE CONVERSATION

Image
By: Onala Olapanran Kunle: Kola, how far jacking na? KOLA: How can I jack when there’s no light in both A and B block of my hall? Kunle: (puzzled) Aha. But you’re a C-blockite na and as far as I can remember, you people have light. KOLA: So the one month break did nothing to your enduringly selfish nature. How can I read comfortably in C block knowing my brethren in A and B are in gross darkness? Don’t you know injustice to one is injustice to all? Kunle: But we just resumed, isn’t it? KOLA: Is it? Kunle: Look Kola, I don’t know about you but I just want to graduate in peace. So all this your gra-gra onto aluta should better be reduced. Abi you no wan graduate ni?

"I was radical in approach because FHR would delay my plans from going the way I wanted" - Jones Shola Ogelekeme, Suspended Fatsssa President.  "On May 2 or 3, 2017, the House approved six (6) executive budgets in one sitting, how is that a delay?" - Basil Umoke, Speaker, FHR.   Mr Jones Ogelekeme The Faculty of the Social Sciences Students Association (FATSSSA) President, Mr Jones Ogelekeme who's currently under suspension, has revealed that the streak of unapproved withdrawals and spendings from the association's account was as a result of perceived delay on the part of the legislative arm. This he made known to the Press during the course of an interview with  FATSSSA PRESS which he ended abruptly after judging the questions asked him to be unintelligent.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH THE SPEAKER, FATSSSA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, MR UMOKE BASIL.

“The house will sit at the slightest opportunity and with the cooperation of Mr. Jones find a way to demystify the whole puzzle constitutionally…” - Mr Basil Umoke, Speaker FHR. On Monday, 22nd May, 2017, the FHR alongside some other principal officers moved to freeze the Association's account. Can you tell us the circumstances surrounding this move? After over a week of futile efforts to reach the suspended president, Mr. Shola Ogelekeme, by the executive arm as well as the legislative council, and amidst fear, suspense and worry I called for a meeting comprising of all   fatsssa organs including the press on may 21, 2017. At the meeting which held at the faculty's lecture RM 036, we arrived at the decision to freeze the association's a/c momentarily until we had a clearer picture what was going on. We also agree to go to the bank in group the following day may 22,

*BREAKING NEWS* *"I NEITHER ABSCONDED NOR STOLE FATSSSAITE'S MONEY" - Jones Ogelekeme, Fatsssa President.* Fatsssa Press About two weeks ago (28/05/17) we reported that the President had  gone missing along with a very large sum of money from the Fatsssa account. All this while attempts to establish contact with him had proved abortive. And rumours of varying degree went round about the circumstances surrounding his sudden disappearance. An Honourable member of the Faculty House of Representatives  in person of Hon. Aquah Christian had been quoted saying that the President was being hunted by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) for issues relating to activities of a group unrecognised by the university. Today however, we have received a correspondence from the President and in it he claimed to not have stolen any money, promising to give a breakdown of the Fatsssa Treasury once he regains his health. In his words, _"Hello E in C, i have been hear...

In this interview, he talks about music, his latest track, Ride in My Lambo and about his career goals. Enjoy the conversation. Tell us a bit about yourself. My name is Victor Simon Murana, a student of the faculty of the social sciences, department of geography, 300l. I am from a family of 5, my parents, I and 2 younger siblings. How did you go into music and why? I have had a great passion for music since childhood. My dad likes music a lot so he plays different records all the time. I got accustomed to music by listening to the records my dad played back then. But then I really didn't think about becoming an artiste. The thought of me being an artist came to me when I was in secondary school. There was a group of guys that produce songs together then. My music career started in secondary school. When the same group...
