Uniosun Student And There Wrong Kind Of Hustle
Every school has a culture, in fact it seems to be like a spirit that drives the lifestyle people choose. From the Aluta Spirit of OAU to the Randy Sex Craze of Unilag and The Yahoo+ hustle of Lautech. Someone would expect that UNIOSUN would take after either UI which is well known for Academic over sabi and intellectual karamo!
Or if the students refused to follow UI, at least Great Ife is just 30 minutes drive from Osogbo. One would expect the ever vigilant and vibrant spirit of the Great OAU campus would infect UNIOSUN. who would have imagined that it is ordinary LAUTECH in Ogbomosho that will now become role model and mentor for such a beautiful school as this.
The whole of Okebaale is littered with hostels, totally out of the reach and influence of school management. The students have a hustling spirit, while they should be pushing hard to ace their grades a larger percentage are running after money-quick schemes.
Is it the multiplicity of yahoo boys quarters? Or the proliferation of Football betting shops, is it their involvement and love for Ponzi schemes like MMM and such? It is becoming a serious cause of concern that the students of this prestigious campus are choosing the wrong hustle.
It is not wrong to desire an entrepreneurial attitude, it is rather important that we choose the right hustle. It not only reflects on the kind of adults we will become, it also reflects on the image our school will forever bear. Maybe we will be another Lautech or Another UI or OAU or maybe UNIOSUN will actually standout as it was designed to do. This campus is one of the few satellite University systems that has thrived in a complex economy like Nigeria.
The students may look back and think they have little to be proud of, but each one of you would also have to ask yourselves what contributions you have made to create a better memory for your school. Choose the right hustle, be proud of UNIOSUN and YOURSELF.
