Fellow 300level Grammarians, Ekiti State University. First and foremost, I salute you all for resuming back to school on time, I was perplexed when I saw the percentage of those that had resumed during the first week of resumption. God bless you. Well, for me not to beat around the bush, let me enter the bush. It has come to my notice that you love castigating yourselves or what we Nigerians call Beefing this is degrading and highly calumnious. I see that we all are matured to do away with infantile attitude that will not lead us anywhere. My question is: how can someone stand up to ask a question in class and through your randicorous hulabaloo, and lambastion shut-up the person? The last time I checked, nobody is an island of knowledge, and we all pay the same school fee!. We all are entitled to different opinion. Anybody can ask question, whether it align with what the lecturer is teaching is none of your business! After all, we are not only in school to concentrate mainly on our study, we must try learn in all ramification, the question asked may be of benefit to you or may even be an exam question!. I write this without apology to anyone. Another thing I noticed is the way and manner we conduct ourselves whenever a lecturer is in class. Whenever the lecturer that is endowed with plethora of vocabs is in the class, the class is always silent like a graveyard. But when the man that is endowed with Oraloric analogy is in class, even though his voice is not hulabaloolius you will open your mouth and begin that noise that can even wake a dead man up from the grave! You will see girls gisting about what they cooked yesterday, how they slept. Guys gisting about the latest football transfer, pinging e.t.c. What an idiosyncratic behaivour. When the Man that speaks slowly but with powerful missleslic oral phonetics is in class, we are half-silent and half-noisy! And so many lecturers like that that time will not permit me to mention. This is what I call dis-integration Respect-disrespect And for those that do make yanga as if they know everything, I pity you. You feel you are bold, enlightened to correct a lecturer in front of the whole class! Profs ride on, I pray you do not fall into the trap of a lecturer. Even God says that we should give honour to who deserves honour. Yes! the lecturer cannot know everything, agreed, but there is what I call constructive correction whereby you correct a lecturer in which it will not portray a situation that may connote that you are making gest of the lecturer. Please, do not Kobalize us. And to those that do not like teaching their fellow grammarians whatever he/she does not know, well, I say kudos, remember, ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER we are not in this school to contest for 1st position, we all are here to have good grades and be a better person in our community stop hoarding knowledge. I implore us that our class should be a class that is void of bitterness and rancour. Let us Love one another, God created us with love and He wants us to replicate that kind of love to our fellow human beings. I will welcome all criticism that will be thrown at me, I am used to it, but the truth is always bitter, while ignoratius elenchi is easy, but it will never last long because the truth can never be subjugated. I will continue to Love you all and correct you whenever I see you doing a wrong this. NB: I am not addressing anyone, because I myself, I am not saint Paul. From a concerned colleague, Hon.Paul[M.O.E]
