The Day I Was Told I Am A "Dullard" by Nobody: 8:28am On Oct 20, 2017
It was a good day on campus, we had our 1st class of the day "Tendering & Estimating (QUS 315) from 8.00am - 10.00am afterwards we did "Construction Technology" (BLD 403) from 10.00am - 12.00pm and no doubt I enjoy this classes 12.00pm - 2.00pm we are going to be having "Theory of Structures III (BLD 401) and this short agile but aging man enters the lecture all, No doubt, if you Studied Civil Engineering or Building Technology at Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro you must know this man (Engr. Sanni).


Without ado,He introduce himself and we set to work, He gave the course outline and we are going to be taken it one by one, 99% of this course is purely calculations, More than half of what we are going to be doing in it is Direct integrations with applications to structures Beams e.t.c,

Yeah, he was introducing us to the course and also testing our knowledge on subsequent 'Theory of Structure' Classes, and no gainsaying, we fumbled, he keep testing us and we fumbled over and over again, you can see him shaking is head in dissapointment, and that is what brought about this excoriations.
You know what yoruba called "oro buruku tohun terin" or "Koba kun gbe oro" I remember one of the comment that got to me so much he said "Won ti baye yin je". And also "mofi yin dupe lowo olohun iru awon omo tolohun funmi". my brother I was crying inside of me, Yeah, I needed to shed that tears, as rebuking the comments might be it was the plain "Truth".


Actually, I see it as a motivation, we may not be the best in academic but let's start defining our life now, we shouldn't stop educating our selves, add value to ourselves, start your wealth port-folio now, its too competitive outside there.


Can you compete
