DISAPPOINTED BEGINNING: FRESHER'S FRUSTRATION DUE TO LATE EVENT KICKOFF

Picture this: an event everyone was hyped about during Freshers' Week, meant to start at 7 a.m., but it didn't kick off until almost 9 a.m. The excitement that was bubbling earlier turned into disappointment as the minutes ticked by.

The delay threw a wrench in everyone's plans, leaving the freshers who were all geared up feeling let down. It wasn't just about being a bit late – it felt like no one really cared about keeping to time or had value for the excitement everyone was going to bring.

The impact of this late start was pretty obvious. Those who made the effort to show up felt a bit deflated, and honestly, it kind of justified why some didn't bother to come at all. The vibe at the delayed start? Well, let's just say it was a mix of 'meh' and 'seriously?'

What made it worse? It's been over a week and there's been no apology or explanation as to why there was a delay in the commencement of the event. That lack of acknowledgment left everyone scratching their heads, wondering what was going on. It was like, "Did anyone even care that we were all here, ready to go?"

This delay didn't just mess with the event's plans; it kind of made the department look bad too. Some of us were left wondering if future events would be as disorganized as this, planting seeds of doubt about what to expect next.

THE LION

"THE LION" it's a term used overtime to describe the doggedness and tenacity of previous speakers of the public administration house of parliament in delivering its constitutional duties and it has become a conventional norms going forward. On the 21st of December 2023 at the post graduate lecture theater the parliamentary sitting of the house held, having in attendance quite a numerous number of students from different constituencies. The sitting which started on a cozy note with various financial updates from different offices ends up in a state of dilemma between the offices of the director of socials and the financial secretary of the department. This brought about their suspension as the both of them seem not to agree on some financial statement and documentation, therefore the house of parliament in it's wisdom suspended the director of socials (ADEDAYO ADEAGBO) and the financial secretary ( ADEBAYO WASIU)for a period of a week starting from the end of the...

Schooled in the Chemistry of Football: Public Administration Fails the First Test.

It was supposed to be an afternoon of excitement as the Department of Public Administration faced off against the Department of Chemistry in their opening game of the Great Ife Football League. The match began with intensity, as the Chemistry team launched a high press right from kickoff, signaling their determination to secure a win by any means necessary. The Public Administration team matched their intensity, leading to a fiercely competitive first half that ended in a goalless draw. The second half saw Public Administration creating several promising chances, largely through the efforts of their energetic winger, Mubby. Despite his relentless runs and skillful attempts to break through the defense, all efforts ultimately proved abortive, as Chemistry’s defense held firm. Public Administration struggled to convert their opportunities—a performance reminiscent of a certain team from the red half of Manchester. Chemistry finally broke the deadlock with a clinical strike from their rig...
