Whenever social issues come to attention, many people think that Sociology is that wicked discipline that deciphers and urged them to worship other Gods besides the ones they believed in. While other people tolerate the discipline for being the most value-judgemental, logically added and pathologically swept the problem of the society without affecting the belief of one person, or proper a lopsided analysis. Despite this, Sociology has become a discipline that received tremendous insult for not being religious in its analysis of the social World. Some see the discipline as secular, and her students are often attributed to many ‘ism’ such as Atheism, Animism, Free Thinkers and followers of the ancient proponents of the discipline (Marx, Durkheim, Weber, Spencer), therefore, they worship some religious doctrines established by these founding fathers.

Abiodun Dolapo Oluwaseun Time alone will tell, of souls fed to distress When a hole in my dress, equals a hole in my chest When an apple I didn't eat, becomes the key to my death Clutched, Clamped, and Chained Freedom became a mere words on the pages of the papers It holds no water When our rights can be likened to a rice The fire is off, it can no longer rise The Black is your colour But should it also be your culture Extortion is the language you understand I blame you not, for your bosses are managers of the banks Where the only acceptable currency is CORRUPTION Trigger Happy child they call you All hail you, plus damn fool, damn you Time alone will tell Well that time is here To the ones that amplifies our request through their knees and protests Keep SOROSOKE(ing), our God in Heaven listens Your prayers provides Strength when we are weary.

By Halima Olalekan, Charis King Nose masks which used to be items found only in specific areas like some sections of the hospital, industrial work and laboratories, has now turned out to be a basic comodity for almost everyone in the world.

I am currently the Vice President, Lagos State University Students Union, Ikeja Campus Q: What attracted you to politics sir? A: Actually I never planned to involve myself in anything relating to politics while in school. It all started when we were in 200 level, being a member of the pioneer set of Department of Nursing Sciences, Lagos State University, We don't have an executive council and this really had a negative impact on us because we were being deprived of alot of things and since we don't have a union or association to speak for us, everyone tends to try to find a solution to their problems on their own. Often times, all we needed was to relay our requests to the school authorities but the question is "WHO WILL TAKE...

Unluckily for Nigeria, this global pandemic was first discovered on 28th February, 2020 from United Kingdom returnees. It was almost two months after the first case was discovered that 343 cases were confirmed. There and then, Ministry of Education pronounced a temporary closure of all schools in Nigeria which took effect from March 3rd in other to curtail the spread of this deadly virus.
