Public Administration Learns a New Philosophy in Dramatic Draw


After being “schooled in the art of football” by a team of Chemists, the Public Administration team returned to the field today, determined to show they had learned their lesson. Their second game against Philosophy turned out to be just as dramatic, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.

Philosophy started with a bang, scoring an early goal and putting Public Administration under pressure. As if history wanted to repeat itself, Public Administration found themselves in trouble again when a handball gave Philosophy a free kick in a dangerous spot. But this time, they regrouped and hit back with a well-planned move to equalize.

Just when it seemed they had found their rhythm, the referee disallowed what would have been a lead goal for Public Administration. The decision sparked frustration, but the team pressed on, and the first half ended 1-1.

In the second half, Philosophy nearly took the lead again, but an offside call saved Public Administration. Seizing the moment, they struck back with a second goal, giving their fans something to cheer about.

Jubril, the team’s standout player, had a golden opportunity to put the game to bed with a penalty. However, his shot went just wide, keeping the game alive.

In the dying moments, Philosophy was awarded a free kick, and they made the most of it, scoring a stunning goal to level the game. Their fans erupted with joy, while Public Administration could only wonder what could have been.

The match ended 2-2, leaving everyone talking about how Public Administration, despite their spirited performance, might still have a lot to learn—this time from Philosophers.

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.

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...
