Someone I saw today came to submit something very important…

Deadline = today.

Everything was already set o.

But he still waited till last minute before showing up.

Now pressure everywhere, begging for “quick help” like it’s urgent for everybody.

Be honest… why do people do this to themselves? 😭

It's not just students self.. Nigerians.. we seem to have deadline syndrome challenges

You’ll have days… even weeks.
But nothing happens.
Deadline day now becomes the busiest day of your life. 🙄

Running up and down, looking for help everywhere.
Why not just do it earlier and rest? 😭

interesting but that problem is not only within students o.. most of us wait till last minute to do what we know we should do early but I guess the first way to addressing this matter is as they did in that your video.. refuse to give the person what they need when they come too late for it.. they will learn fast.. that should spread to everywhere even outside schools

This is not an engagement bait (for wild thinkers).. this is a subtle research method to arrive at numerous decisions about so many issues that we believe will eventually be meaningful for present and future generation to learn from, adapt the good, discard the bad.
