By Dauda Mistura There is a change in the human environment that is drastically ending lives and taking peoples’ means of livelihood from them. Over the past decade sea level has risen, temperature is increasing and weather is changing rapidly across the globe. All as a result of human activities like fossil fuel burning and deforestation which increase heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere. In order to contain this, various countries in the world are doing a lot of research into creating various renewable energies to provide cleaner air and a sustainable environment for their citizens. Like every other thing, Nigeria is lagging behind in providing a quick solution to its climate crisis, despite its numerous environmental problems. According to the 2020 global research of Hongkong and Shanghai banking corporation limited (HSBC) on climate change, Nigeria is listed among top five countries that are vulnerable to climate change in the world. What lands Nigeria on the lis...

By Odedeyi Nafisat Abisola. "Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better." -- Jim Rohn. Most people today think being successful is to be famous, powerful and to have attained alot of tangibles which shouldn't be. Success is something that you define yourself. So I'll say, success to me is giving back to the society and making a difference. To some, it could mean a sense of accomplishment and career progression. It could also mean being able to do things you love to do. Success has no deadline,it is not determined by a certain age or time, let's consider people like Nelson Mandela who became South Africa's president at the age of 77 after spending 27 years in jail. We all want to be successful,we chase fame, money, power, and a lot of things without asking what being successful actually is? Success is both a goal and a journey, when we reach a certain milestone, it's an element o...

By Joseph Gbadamosi Rickety Rickety Rickety doh, That's my Grandpa's chair, A cough, a shout and then a cry, Once upon a time… Once upon a time, he said In a village far away, There lived animals of fate who all obeyed, a great and mighty King A party was thrown to celebrate, the victory of the then King of fate, "The Iron King!" they cried aloud And long live the king of Clouds Aha! Aha! Aha! Aha! that's my fellow friends, But Grandpa! Who's this king? they cried, Of fates, iron and lots of friends Don't jump the gun! my folks, It's a story of passwords, puzzles and bolts, But with the rules of speech we can, Unearth the truths there are to find And as the party went on and on, As drinks were shared amongst them all, There stood a being behind the crowd, Hovering and watching, wanting to strike A check, a squint and then a breath, He ensured he was ready to strike, But as he closed his fingers around his spear, A fairy poured the dust of past Like a r...

By Àjàyí Samiat We all speak about not letting stereotypes get to us, it's very easy to come all out and take this stand but how often do we practice it. The class of women that have decided to wear the hijab which is defined by Wikipedia as "a religious veil worn by Muslim women in the presence of any male outside of their immediate family, which usually covers the hair, head and chest", do so for numerous reasons but with one common cause. These women are victims of a popular stereotype because of decisions and mistakes some have made, society goes ahead to generalize and conclude they are the worst kind of people, those hiding behind the veil . Society puts women on hijab in a box, they expect and don't expect certain things from them, and express their disappointment when they fail to meet up with these expectations. After all a veiled woman is an holy woman.They expect perfection and detest mistakes, they construct a box with or without your consent and put you i...

By Murtala Zainab Sefrinmi Students from various faculties of the University have shown disappointment in the performance of the Lagos State University football team known as the LASU Blazers, who recently crashed out of the much anticipated Higher Institution Football League ( HIFL) qualifiers hosted on their home ground . Despite a commendable outing in the 2019 season for the Blazers at various tournament such as the ASFU, and the HIFL, the team gave less than the fans expected of them and it wss a very big upset as the team lost the two matches played in the qualifying round of the playoffs. The HIFL second season which is set to commence later in the year had the Zone "C" qualifying rounds matches played on the LASU Sports center being the home ground of the Blazers, who played host to universities like the University of Lagos UNILAG, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology LAUTECH, Federal University of Technology Akure FUTA, Olabisi Onabanjo University OOU, and ABUAD...

By LESHI ADEBAYO OLUWAPELUMI After LASU Blazers defeat, many would think that there would be a lesser crowd at the LASU Sport Center, but this turned out wrong, as there was a large turnout of students at the sports center for the football game which began at 10:04 am on 22nd, April 2021. The two teams responsible for the early exit of LASU Blazers from the HIFL football competition Zone C. As UNILAG Marines and LAUTECH clashed, LAUTECH opened the games, but in a swift turn of events, few minutes into the game, UNILAG Marines brought the heat upon the LAUTECH boys. George, number 4, the defensive midfielder also created beautiful chances but all was to no avail as the LAUTECH players did well to hold down the fort to an extent as the formidable goalkeeper of the team Adesina Saka did well to defend his post. The attack on LAUTECH players by the UNILAG Marines continued but they couldn't tear through the formidable defence and goalkeeper of the LAUTECH team. As the game progressed, ...

Kareem Itunu Azeez Consciously and unconsciously, from being university student representatives, they further chase this careers of being political gladiators to being future leaders, especially when they understand the GAMES, and yes I mean games, this is where the trouble is, because even the future leaders already have seen politics as a game, not necessarily a means of service to their immediate environment. My story sits comfortably at the corridors of the Lagos State University Students Union, where many students representatives and comrades once begin their journey to being who they are today politically, past,  present and the once to come. While one administration seems to be coming to an end, another is being groomed, and one can see the foray of their mission, their campaign already is beginning to surface across faculties, and even they are going as far as making their self known outside the vicinity of the school, some are visiting popular civil servants, just as we have a...

By Shittu Mujeebah The much anticipated match started by 4:14 at the Lagos State University Sport Center 20th, Tuesday April 2021. The match was between the Lagos State University And University of Lagos, started with the Unilag team in full spirit,energy and vibe. Several attempts were made to score goals by the Unilag team in the first half and the game was also controlled by Unilag in the first half. Suddenly a goal that was not so shocking but disheartening to LASU students was scored by Unilag at exactly 4:53pm. The excitement earlier portrayed by the students of the Lagos State University died down after the first goal by Unilag. The first goal from Unilag was not surprising, as in the first half of the match the LASU players were not really active. Could this be due to fear, anxiety or could it be because the LASU players are shorter than their Unilag counterparts. As it is known there is no sport without injury and this match was no exception, as both parties suffered injuries....

By:Dauda Mistura With the emergence of COVID-19 pandemic and most parts of the world in lockdown, the pandemic affected every aspect of human life. It has taken lives, jobs and even robbed us of entertainment, even face masks became the norm and Nigeria was not left out. There have been different measures put in place to control the spread of the disease. On Monday, 30 March, 2020, the Federal Government announced a total lockdown with the effects seen in all aspects of the country from economy to agriculture down to entertainment, but the educational system had to deal with the largest blow. Nigerian universities are notorious for strike actions as students stay idle at home, the lockdown period was a sad reoccurrence of this malady that has bedeviled the Nigerian education sector. Nigeria sought to transition to online learning,like every other country in the world. But it begs the question, ARE NIGERIAN PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES CAPABLE? Expensive data rates, epileptic power supply, low ...
