No Lie! I feel 'strongly' about this topic. First of all, the grammar *sighs*, secondly I can't just seem to understand nor translate it to a meaningful sentence. Right now, I dey feel like Yakubu, like am in the middle of a lonely road heading nowhere but I just can't stop, this is just the beginning, day 2 and am already lost, I guess Yahoo News must feature this post else I will have to post a link on Hi5 or better still, shove it down Odina's barbie X_X
Hem.....In this country of ours where everything seems to be on the wrong side, there is absolutely everything to feel 'strongly' about. Is it the bad roads or the no light? How about the unemployment level? The state of our financial institutions or the low standard of living of the people? What about the lack of TT (Trending Topics) on twitter and the all time low twit-fights? Oh! Do you even know that there was a twit-fight between @Zicmilitary and @TweetOracle yesterday? Dayumm..... You've missed the twit-fight of a life time, Its was madt, see BIG BIG dissing, yepa! Ori iyami eleba o! *in Chris Tucker's voice* ain't there gonna be a Part2? but #IsThatWhyWeAreHere? Nope! We are here for this 30 Days non-stop blogging I've found myself in which I feel 'strongly' about, or what's there not to feel 'strongly' about? :| is it the fear of public places which is the beginning of wisdom for Nigerians and most especially the Northerners? Or is it the faceless Boko Haram's 'bomb and claim responsibility' strategy? :x ..... Not to even talk of those 106 unfollowers *burst into tears*.
I have said this before and I will say it again, 'I am not in anyway responsible for anything you read on this blog, be it post or comments, I owe nobody any letter of the alphabet nor musical note so make nobody dance to music wey hin no hear' (Terms and Conditions apply).
One thing I really feel 'strongly' about is that 2006 Covenant University CBS (College of Business and Social Science) week, aka Blue Week '06 tagged P.I.M.P (Promoting Intellectual and Mental Productivity) that got cancelled. *now getting emotional* Yes! We prepared well, we stabbed lectures, we had sleepless nights, the photo sessions, the mascots, the blue sprays and the videos *sighs*. The then Student Council Chairman said to us after a long meeting 'you guys want to beat CST (College of Business and Social Science) to it but do you think your college week will hold' and that was it. We took it with a pinch of salt, maybe cos we had his council members among us or maybe cos we followed due process and got all our programmes signed. The opening of the college week on Sunday was massive, we didn't stop there. On monday, we all came out for what we called the awareness carnival, the whole school was brought down, CST and CHD students joined us, the lecturers and workers were not left out, they even had their face painted. ***To save us all the details and rantings cos e still dey pain me gan, lemme fast-forward >>****
While we were all in front of the cafeteria enjoying the 'Dance-Battle' (First of its kind in CU and definitely the Last), I mean we took over the whole school, this must have gotten the authorities scared that if we can make this happen, then we can successfully organise a protest or better still a riot and the student council chairman was there to speak bad of the week *sighs* 'we' had to say good night. Yes 'we' cos our College Rep was forced to do it without us knowing. The whole college week which has just started has been cancelled, It was sad, I was confused, but 'Our opinion does not count'. After so many deliberations and Panel facing, Exhibits in the form of pictures were brought forward and the charges were laid but we were able to clear them all as we followed due process in getting approvals for all what we did and even the ones we were set to do. As minutes turned into hours and hours into days, we 'the organisers' were left with no choice, we had to stand by each other as liver had failed most people, they were scared of expulsion. The school authorities said our P.I.M.P (gotten from the Schools motto which was Promoting Mental Productivity) which we claim to mean 'Promoting Intellectual and Mental Productivity' was way far from its true meaning. They said the meaning of P.I.M.P according to their sources, for guys; it means 'Prostitute In My Palace' and for gurls, it means 'Pr!ck In My Pus*y' wow! I was shocked but what can the righteous do?
We were told that we should write out our names (we the organisers) and prepare to get our expulsion letters. We were 11 in number and we were to suffer for the whole college students. I wasn't moved, after all, I was on my right and I had done noting wrong. Some students pleaded with us that their names be included since we were representing them and the Great Izedomie said 'if they will expel you, that means they will expel the whole college student and their lecturers cos you guys were representing us' wow! That was all the assurance we needed *sighs* the long days of trials, the stabbing of lectures and the criminal kindda look that we were tagged with all of a sudden came to an end. I don tire, but that experience is still doing me strong thing *now thinking* the friends I made, enemies I discovered and the little fame. I just can't forget that week, I've got pictures, videos and even the offence *in VC's voice* ....
"Disturbing the peace of the community and performing very despicable acts that are diametrically opposing to the core values and the vision of the covenant university"

Blatant nonsense!
The idiots who came up with the alternate interpretations of the acronyms... Err... Did the authorities not think to question their own moral standards???
I say see no evil hear no evil speak no.... Sigh
The "first to report wins" policy is rather stupid. So dem just gree with the retards???
They feel rather pleased about their expulsion letters tho.
The authorities need to check themselves.
