It was the 1st dayof d 1st semester and a new direct entry student, Koffi, A Ghanaian,
joined d history class here in Delta
State University Abraka. The
lecturer said; let's begin today's
leisure by reviewing some
Nigeria history.
The lecturer asked; who said i shall return and die in the land of my fathers? The whole class went
silent. She saw a sea of blank faces
except Koffi, who had his hand up.
Koffi said; King Jaja of Opobo, 1875.
Very good. Said the lecturer. She asked again; who said,
the land use act will feed the
nation?. This time, again no response except from Koffi,
he stood up and said; Obasanjo,
1976. The lecturer snapped at the
class; class, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
Koffi, who's from Ghana and new to our country knows more about it's history than you
do. What a shame!.
The lecturer immediately heard
a loud whisper; Ghana must go!
Who said that?. She demanded.
Koffi raised his hand up and said;
Buhari, 1984. At that point, a
student at the back scornfully
said; Hmm, you think you are
smart?. Theblecturer glared; all
right! Now, who said that?. Koffi
replied; Babangida to Abiola, 1992. Now furious,banother student yelled; oh yeah!
Eat this!. Koffi jumped out of his
chair, waved his hand and shouted at the lecturer; indian mistress,ngiving an apple to
Abacha, 1992. Now,nwith mob hysteria,nsomeone said; you
little shit. If you say anything else,
i'll kill you. Koffi yelled at the top of his voice; Chris Uba
to Ngige, 2004. The lecturer fainted. As the class gathered
around her on the floor, a female
student said; oh shit, we are in big
trouble!. Koffi whispered;
Chimaroke Nnamani, Ayodele
Fayose and Lucky Igbinedion 2007. A male student
angrily said; Don't answer him, he is a fool. Koffi smiled
and said; Obasanjo to IBB, 2011. All the students quickly took to
their heels.
Happy independent guys
