By Similoluwa Ifedayo On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to watch the 1997 blockbuster "Titanic" as part of Lagos State University's (LASU) Faculty of Law social week organized by the LASULAW Students' Society.  As I walked into the Okunnuga moot court (the makeshift cinema), I was struck by the opulence of the decoration and the comfortable seating. The moot court had been transformed with curtains and lighting, giving it a true theatre vibe. As I settled into my seat, I was offered popcorn and a drink to enjoy during the movie. The sound and picture quality were both outstanding, making it easy to get lost in the romance on screen. The recreation of the Titanic and its magnificent interiors was breathtaking, and the portrayal of the ship's fateful voyage was both harrowing and poignant. One of the things that stood out for me was the incredible performances of the lead actors, DiCaprio and Winslet. Their chemistry was electric and their portrayal of t...

​By  Similoluwa Ifedayo   Yes. You read the topic right. Avoid them or they will show you  shege. I will begin this letter with a rundown of how Mondays look like for me.  Now, every Monday, two things are true about me, one is that I have hectic classes and two, I always wake up tired. The classes usually require me to be mentally stable and physically strong because I have to engage in back-to-back trekking under the LASU sun.  What can I do? The degree must be bagged. So, in order to be stable mentally, the evening before, I decided to relax at a restaurant in the inner parts of Ojo.    Before, I go any further, let me beat around the bush a bit by going to the earlier parts of Sunday. Bear with me, please. It is part of the story. Just be sure to take a cold drink as you read through. Yes, so, I woke up around 6am, had my early Bible study/prayer, did my house chores, and had my bath. By 7:30am, I was done and was walking to First Gate junctio...

Students in Nigeria are bearing the brunt of the country's rising inflation. Prices for basic necessities like food and transportation have been on the rise, which has put a strain on many families and is impacting the lives of many students.  For Triumph Emmanuel, a 200-level Mass communication student, the impact of the inflation cannot be overestimated. Triumph's primary source of income is the allowance he receives from home. A year before now, the allowance he receives has been enough to cater for his feeding, transportation, and necessities and get him through as a regular student, until he receives the next. However,  this is not the case anymore due to the rising cost of basic necessities. "As a student, I used to confidently decline when they offered to bring foodstuffs for...
