ADEBOYE AND OYEDEPO: MEN OF GOD OR MEN OF GOB? by Sylvanus Omoniyi

I want to say something. It is important. But before then, I want to thank all my enemies all over the world who have been supporting me. May God support you with evil things. Also, I want to appreciate all the witches and wizards in the world who dearly love me. Thank you very much. If witches and wizards could like me, who are you not to like me? I have given up on humanity because everyone is stupid. I have decided to be true to my heart because people are not reasonable again, especially in Nigeria. I am yet to find a single reasonable being in Africa. Everyone in Africa is an asshole. We are dumb asses. See, it is not that I derive any pleasure from insulting people. Not at all. The only thing is that I get pissed off when people are being unreasonable.  I have been performing a lot of experiments. On social media. And in reality. You cannot even understand the way I think. Everyday, I strive to be less afraid and to have more freedom. I try to look at things and people and und

One day, I'll write about this place

Unilag Cresol; a derivative of a congenial isomer. One day, I'll write about this place - Kunle Adegunoye. Even after leaving you , I dare not compare you to any other. From the front gate through the Senate building to the back gate, your serenity describes a genuine tranquility. I was a bit baffled when Akokites regard you as the school of first choice and nation's pride. I thought it was normal for them to bask in the ephemeral euphoria of having their education in Nigeria's first University established by the Act of Parliament. Time and again, you have made bold the claim of superiority to others. In my four years here from 2011 to 2015, you twice led the table of Nigerian universities according to NUC. Not only were you "first choice", you taught others how to be first in everything. Our first pride in you was the unilag radio, 103.1 established in 2004. When others saw and started making efforts to achieve the set feat, you moved a step ahead to havi

Taiwo Adewole, a man from the past future

After returning from an invigorating dance arena at the Education love garden, a curious Kunle asked Taiwo, his ne'er calm friend why he was in the habit of liking his own Facebook posts. Taiwo laughed uproariously and the walruses in the jungle shivers with delight. He pondered the question, laughed again, snorted snuff into his three nostrils, emptied a human skull of last week palmwine and orijin into his snout and said,  "my boy, do you know why, when the lizard survives a fall, it nods its head in self-congratulation? Kunle kept quiet. SMH! Taiwo continued after downing two bowls of nkwobi, three plate of indomie and a human skull of Lager beer and quickly checking his class whatsapp  page to see if anyone wants to pay for docket or class due, "because if the lizard doesn't, no one else will". "If I don't like my post, no one else will", he concluded. Then he took a selfie with Kunle's phone(he had been told about the kamikaze effect
