so far so good, i've always known a single english language and literature dude along this itinerary. his name, hakings. where are you guys? if you be of english lang and lit, ejowo, abeg, biko, please show yourself and let's rub minds.

i wonder how funny and humorous some of these posts/comments would look to the management of UI if they are actually following the thread. assumption and permutation of different varieties. i'd rather keep mute and watch the clairvoyant soothsayers as they unveil the identity of the yet - to be - born foetus

hakings...the newest viewing inductee......

Dr.'Hesjay:
anglophone??....

francophone i meant to say hesjay da doctor. thanks for drawing my attention to that.

happy birthday to you fynest! may the good Lord add to your glories. first, it was the leadership role ( site moderator) and now you just added to your years of living. i think the one knocking at the door is that long awaiting admission letter into UI for u, i and everyone.so, in my islamic manner, i say WARAFANA HUMA KANA HALIYA ( may ALLAH never cease to elevate you) and in our anglophone neighbours' voice 'je dire bonne l'annivassaire mon ami' - happy birthday to you friend.

the merger is a problem to none but the myopic . if any phylosophy is not coming from the christians, it's not the best for nigeria no matter how useful or heplfull it maybe. i've always attended none islamic schools all my life wherein i performed lots of activities attached to christianity and here i am today, still an islamic monotheist. why is that you prefer to dine with the devil than to live with the muslims? it's this hatred for islam that put the economy where it is today. CAN and other corresponding christian groups did throw their weight behind jonathan to come to power and his administration now they can not defend. osun state has been the most peaceful state in nigeria in all ramifications in recent years under the stewardship of this same man whose administration you now see as a threat because of mere merger of schools. my call to the people of the state of osun! i'd rather you woke up and stir the coffee and let no group in the name of religious difference usher in chaos into your peaceful state like they did to nigeria. my advice.

dammytosh: Let us be factual,

Besides the identity of the school that will be corroded with different and silent aspect of the merging. (Dress mode etc)

Can muslims allow wearing of Celestial Church Of Christ white garment in a muslim school or allow christians to fellowship in the same?

This assumed monopoly of violence is sickening and i fear the worse might come out of this.


With acclaimed 'Educational restructuring'. I will assume returning schools to the original missionary owners and building Govt schools will make more sense.

What else do you expect from a leader with that kind of trouser. A potential terrorist in d making.

peaceuful co - existence emanates from peaceful and ethical utterances. a none - aspiring terrorist would'nt refer to the chief executive of the state like you did. i'm very sure somebody like you has good attitude towards the move just like you did love the islamic banking initiative but your cynical view about islam has always being your headache. i'm so sure you 'd prefer your children walk naked if it has no islamic undertone.

not appreciated by myopic zombies though. but i guess i did the little i could to minimise redundant posting tonight....

Mismak: @Fiyin, Pls u may/maynt b mad @ wah u see here...jst ignore nd snub it...

zezeny: While u await ur cut off nd list, express ur faith by answering dis simple question. WHICH HALL OF RESIDENCE WILL YOU LIKE TO STAY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN AND WHY ? (Male: Zik, Mellanby, Kuti, Bello, Indi, Tedder... Female: Queens, Idia, Awo).

let 'em adopt any system, INSHA ALLAH, I'M ALREADY A UITE. so, i refused to be intimidated and scared by any voice of uncertainty.

breath-taking indeed! thank God for the hard-fought victory...#CFC

Mesopotamia: i quite agree with ur take......itz ur opinion......though the person in question aint me.

wa 'a sere for ya understanding

Mikebis: are u calln me fulish

not really sir...read over to comprehend better

Mesopotamia: Enjoy this for the rainy sunday.
*There's diz gal i love so much bt i dnt knw why she won't talk to me.
It started like this:she posted on facebook-"all men are dogs!".
I commented:"which breed is you father?
That's hw the whole problem started.Please did i ask the wrong question?

may i speak into your ears the bitter truth from the moral angle? referring the lady in question to her father as retribution for her rude post does not make you any better than the girl. i understand how unethical she sound but there are other courteous ways of scolding her and moreover, her attitude might just be the reflection of the environment from where she springs. so, i'd rather you didn't refer to her father as it makes you commit virtual immoral offence as she did. my take.

Mikebis: wat necessry,dis is admssn thread nd nt talk show

wuman beans and their insatiable attitude....you do their bidding, you 're fuulish, you don't, you 're proud. the only way to please 'em is to please yourself...IGBERAKURU...

Mesopotamia: Lest i forget,i had a very terrible dream.I saw myself in my sitting room watching tv,AIT to be specific.They were showing sumtin like a news/documentary and it involves the wanton killings in the north.I saw two men dressed in hausa clothing,white jalamia with cap.They were talking,probably preaching or championing a course with a megaphone[i couldn't here what they were saying].The enviroment looked hostile,probably what these two men were saying aint going down well with the people around.Suddenly,three men came out of the crowd and pounced on them with knifes,inserting and removing it from their stomach till their white cloth turned red and died.And i woke.

i think you did experience deja vu and no dream brother. probably as a result of the uprising bedevilling the northern region and its inhabitants. just guessing anyway.

Mikebis: Gudmawnin to u all,nd hw was ya 9t,walai na cleverj nd hakings de waste dis page o,coz dr post to de lng,kilode ganself

i salute the courage and courteous manner with which you address this issue. so responsible and responsive of you. not because you declined attacking me with your post but because you did address the issue with maturity and decorum. meanwhile, i love people who criticise when i write because that is the best way to improve as a writer. resainnance, thanks for playing the role of a trouble - shooter...sweet hugs!

renaissance: some are saying "attention seekers" shouldn't be replied to. @Cleverjo1.sorry 4 mentioning ur name.always face ur mission here(ui admission).i know u are jealous,envious of sb(hakings) because of wat he posted.we are brothers&sis here.1 love.no ofence

i don't want to believe he was really referring to me because i could remember his post was aimed at one seeking attention who never got one. even if i did, i got what i wanted. so, any hard feeling is like waving at a long gone vehicle. if anyone thinks me a charlatan with my post, such may post his with humility.

I CAN SENSE IT! WE 'RE GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER BY THE DAY. YAH ALLAH! MAKE IT A REALITY AND NOT ILLUSION... HAIL ALL THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE CANDIDATES IN PROCESSION..... GOD IS OUR HOPE, UNIBADAN IS OUR HEIRLOOM. IF YOU SUPPORT THE MOVEMENT SAY HI!, IF YOU OPPOSE IT SAY NAY. MEANWHILE, YOUR NAY IS IRRELEVANT AS THE HI! SERVES IT. GBAM!

Leystra: I am giving u 1000000 Likes for this.....

THE SEEDS OF ANXIETY
Expectation never ceased after expectation just like Okinba launko in his traditional poem stressed that war springs after war. The seeds of anxiety are never positive, but despair, disappointment and heartaches. the anxious are prone to emotional upset and chronic psychological depression if their expectations elude their desires.
My illustration is not far fetched. Aftermath of the screening exercise, many a candidate did bemoan their below par - performances attributing it to different factors while the dominant utterance seemed 'i should have had 70, 80 or even more'. Maybe or maybe not, everyone knows their level of academic sarvy though. What could be responsible for the loads of the disappointing results? inadequate preparation? No!, the conundrum and complexity of the questions? maybe. but the obvious response to our puzzle is ANXIETY which almost made me, myself its victim in the hall. Sighting the first twenty - five questions of the use of english, i was fast to produce my own result ere i started the test. i was drenched in the pool of confidence and my mind was occupied with the thought of getting it all or getting few wrong and the attitude changed from concentrating on the task at hand to creating impression over the result yet to come. 'OVASABI'.
Anxiety is the reason that people post fabricated stories on the social media forum like our thread and they look almost accurate and plausible. Not because of the genuity of the info or the credibility of the writer but because it is what we have been waiting to hear and so our anxious desire becomes the achilles heel through which the person who posts the info gets us on our toes.
April 27 was a hundred years to every utme candidate in the first week of the year 2013 but it did come and passed. a week interval to the release of the UTME results also seemed like the long awaiting BUS that passes only once in year but it finally arrived. UTME activities were soon brought to a halt, the survivors of DIBU initiative proceed and 'others' seek alternative route. No sooner had the registrations for the post - utme of various schools commenced than the ASUU brouhaha emanated and this ushered in a fresh reason for expectation into the hearts of the students due to the NO RESUMPTION, NO SCREENING EXERCISE order of the union. our beloved thread endurerd the pains of waiting most but thanks to the perpetual site moderators who kept the thread lively in the waiting period.
The exercise eventually took place and results follwed but to my dismay, some of us that have waited impatiently to write the test started feeling that the exam had probably not taken place when it did. some were not pleased with the results and some experience serious un-forseen trauma during the exam which they think may put their chance of gaining admission into jeopardy. while many are anxiously expecting the cut - off marks, some of us are hoping that the cut - off marks could be reduced to 45 or even less in an unusual manner of our dream school. Some are even praying fervently that the O'level and JAMB be consisered as yardstick for the admission. hmmn! different strokes for different folks but what is certain is that everyone is expecting one drama or the other in their favor which brings about anxiety again.
what are these blah blah blah all about?
uncertainty of future, the imminent existence of anxiety and its devastating consequences. Just watch how the story changes again when the list is finally released wherein i pray that every member of our will beloved forum be featured. the updates then will look like; ASUU STRIKE, RESUMPTION DATE etal.
while we all ponder over these, i leave you with this sweet one - 'PRAYERS AND PATIENCE ARE THE PERFECT ATTITUDES TOWARDS A POSITIVE EXPECTATION AND NOT ANXIETY AND OVER CONFIDENCE'
