This happened during my
university days but I
thought it's best to share it
this post-examination period of universities in
Nigeria.
One of my randy lecturers was always giving
me 'the look' each time he
came to class. When I noticed that, I avoided
every situation that might
make him request any form of private
meeting with me.
One afternoon, I went out of the school
premises to get lunch at a newly
opened restaurant. As I proceeded to pay at
the counter, the waitress told
me someone had already taken care of my
bills. I turned to acknowledge my
good samaritan and lo and behold, it was my
lecturer. I put aside my
inhibitions and went to thank him. A short
conversation ensued between us.
He offered to give me a lift but I politely
turned him down. I instantly knew
sooner or later, I'll have to pay for the rice and
snacks.
Three weeks after, the lecturer called one
evening and requested I come to
his office. I quickly soaked myself with
anointing oil before obliging his
request. When I got into the office, he walked
up to hug me despite my holy
body.
"But Sir…" "Shhh…don't call me Sir, call me
by my first name. I want us to be best
friends"
"But Sir….how is that possible" I was
mesmerised.
He released me from his grip and began
admiring my body.
"You seem very flexible, I want you to dance
for me". Dbanj's 'fall in love' was playing on
his office stereo. The lecturer was about 6 feet
in height and he had this irritating voice of
chipmunk. Whenever he raised his voice, he
sounded like Kim Kardashian. See me see
wahala oh!
"No offence Sir, but you are old enough to be
my father." I spoke in a nonchalant way. My
statement had angered him.
"If you are a child then why are you in the
University? Get out of my office. Foolish girl."
I scurried to the door immediately. I didn't
need a soothsayer to tell me I
was in deep poo.
The following week was our examination
week. Three days before his paper,
he sms'd me on three topics I should strictly
focus my study on.
Image
His sms had me looking at my phone like,
awww….
this man is truly a best friend.
D-day finally came and I couldn't wait to
scatter his paper. When we were
issued his questions, one look at the tough
questions had me concluding>
Image
He had tricked me. Twenty strange questions
to answer all. All questions
had children and grandchildren.
Image
I adjusted my neck in examination mode but
that didn't help either.
It occurred to me that all our papers were
different types. The lecturer must
have done that deliberately to mess me up.
I busted into an uncontrollable laughter. A
laughter of failure…
The poo of paper I used in revising were in my
pockets. The urge to cheat was too strong. I
didn't know when I pulled it out.
That was when I heard,
"Give it to me!"
The no-nonsense supervisor in charge
suddenly appeared by my table. I
threw the paper into my mouth and began
chewing.
Image
She patiently waited for me…
When I couldn't swallow the bitter paper, I
vomited it into her palms and
busted into tears.
Image
My tears angered her more…
My blank answer sheets were forcefully taken
from me and I was walked out
of the hall. On my way back to the hostel, I
bumped into the lecturer and
explained everything to him.
He consoled me with,
"Get a hotel for us so we could go there to
discuss how you are going to pass my
course." Upon hearing that, my tears soaked
up to my shoes".
Three days after, I took a bottle of wine and
entered into his office like this.
Image
"For the sake of my baby, help me Sir." I
pleaded
"My friend, how did you get pregnant in 3
days? Are you the Virgin Mary?
You think I have time for games here?" He
admonished me.
My class representative even pleaded I am a
witch but his mind was made
up on me. He was bent on taking me to his
bed at all costs just because I
mistakenly ate his meatpie and rice.
That was when I went spiritual. I went into a
sober mood and began
praying. God in his infinite mercies answered
my prayers. Within a few days,
peace had been restored to my life. When
school had reopened, the lecturer
was laid off with 6 other lecturers. I also had a
C in his course. This was a
course I submitted a blank sheet. That
incident remains one of the biggest
miracle of my life.
