I agree with FemiATL.

Composure matters a lot. You need to know when to smile, laugh and when not to. Short precise answers to their questions helps them realise you don't have time for nonsense.

The last time I travelled Lagos- Heathrow, after my hand luggage was checked, this immigration officer excused my aside, asked to see my passport, asked me my name, what job I did, where I lived. I just told him with a straight face, no smiling, no fidgeting, no patronising comments etc. He then said something about if he would find anything undeclared on me if he took me to a room to search. I just said, he wouldnt find anything. After perusing the passport to his satisfaction, he handed it back to me.

I said a thank you and left him standing there.

Then it was the turn of Virgin Atlantic attendants to ask me to 'drop something, auntie'.  I did feel very embarrased FOR THEM but all I did was just smile at them. I wasn't going to encourage them by giving them 'something'.

", And it has got nothing to do with God, satan or some lecturers!"

I disagree with you on the line above.
In quite a few number of Universities in Nigeria, your grades at the end of the day depend on your Lecturer(s).
I had a first hand experience while at Uni. The school I finished from is notorious for Lecturers that  fail you if you don not buy their Textbooks( Handouts).
In my final year, I  was  one of the a victims of a fraudulent Course Rep who did not remit all the monies he collected for the text books to this particular Lecturer. By the time the results for  the course was released, I had a big fat 'F'.  We approached the Lecturer, our HOD, Faculty head etc about the matter. At the end of the day, the guy turned it round on us to say we did not submit an assignment that was 40% (exam was 60 %) and that he gave us a second chance to do it and we still didn't do it.


Quite a number of Students who couldn't complete three sentences in English passed that Course.

If you had 2 course reps and 2 lecturers like that, it will in one way or the other affect your result at the end of the day, especially at Universities where Lecturers see themselves as God.  

Victimisation of students by Lecturers is real!

Other African Leaders speaking up will be a case of KETTLES CALLING THE POT BLACK.

Do you know any african head of state or president who was/will be willing to leave office because the citizens are suffering?

PLS NOTE THAT I AM NOT SAYING THAT ALL UNCIRCUMCISED COCKS SMELL!!!

THEY SMELL IF THEY ARE NOT CLEANED PROPERLY! SWEAT AND DIRT ACCUMULATE.

Has anyone ever seen a smelly COCK!!

I will circumsize my baby boy because it is more hygienic!!! Not because of tradition!!

I will not circumsize my baby girl!!Apart from taking away a female's ability to enjoy sex(which is it sometimes results in), It is utterly pointless!!
