OAU AND MARRIAGE PROSPECTS by Funmi Richards
As the year draws to a close, people are publishing new year resolutions, churches are releasing the new year's banner I'm quite sure that whatever I decide to be included in my 2016 resolution falling in love and marriage are not be included but Mum has been wondering and worrying when I'll finish university when in one session we have had two strikes; she worries when 'the grandchildren' will start coming (LOL. Like that's going to happen so fast).
Friends have jokingly mentioned that they would soon consider their marriage prospects (and I dey dey wonder whether na so e easy) I mean how is it going to be handling a child and attending say Lit class or hustling breakfast, getting to 6am Drama class before the lecturer marks you absent in her attendance sheet?
I’m curious though what/ where are the marriage prospects in OauIfe are there prospects in Awo hall where guys do not know how to be serious about anything in their life and think they alone own the school, in Moz where parents be thinking they are ‘small children’ and boys be saying ‘here comes fresh meat’, Moremi where they all be deceiving themselves thinking they are boss ladies, Faj where they all think they have arrived, Angola boys who think Moz 101 is a core course so they must attend classes every day or is it the risky burger people who never have change to give somebody in their life but will say you can take pure water, as if they are giving you for free, or SUG people who be doing Aluta Continua like their life depends on strike and struggle, or maybe the prospects lie in PGD hall student some of who did not graduate from OAU and think that what happens to undergrads does not concern them and be fighting or stopping undergrads from buying stuff or fetching water from their hall when the school sends undergrads home in a bid to give them a break from the semester (like we need it - just saying tho)
‘In Falz voice’ at 28, girls be saying they don’t want to date but they want to marry, and in my voice I’m saying guys be hustling money their papa never get for e life, later, they marry one fine woman and turn back and say she’s a ‘golddigger’”(if you no show am Pot of Gold where she for hustle am from). Just saying tho; if you find marriage prospects with a lecturer so far as he or she isn’t married I’m solidly behind you I don’t think OAU has a foolproof policy against lecturers fraternizing with students just make sure you don’t marry those lecturers that can fail their husband/wife (don’t be so shocked its happened in OAU before) in that case I’m not behind you oh you are OYO!
Disclaimer: Marriage is usually talked about with so much seriousness just thought to write about it in an unserious way please forgive me if your name or location was mentioned unfavourably in any way (In Comedian I go die’s voice – Na joke I dey joke oh) Awo boys please take note.
