I’ve Never Kissed A Man In My Life – Babcock’s Best Graduating Student

This is an excerpt from Punch Newspaper and I don’t even know why I’m writing this. Maybe it’s funny or something, I can’t really say. Yo judge for yourself:

Excerpts:

On how she handled pressure from male students and lecturers, Omobola Oduyoye, who had her primary and secondary school education at Babcock Primary School and Babcock University High School, stated that though she had so many male friends, she avoided getting intimate with them.

“I have a number of friends – including male students but I always draw a line between friendship for academic advancement and immoral relationship. I’m not abusive; neither am I a snub. But I don’t encourage any relationship that will distract me from my studies. I don’t encourage any action that can suggest to you that I’m a cheap commodity. I also ensure that I don’t go alone anywhere or follow anybody to dark corners even if she is a girl like me.

“It may sound funny to you, I have never kissed anyone in my life and I have not been kissed by anybody. I thank God for the grace He gives me to achieve this because I know that some people will say it is not easy but with God all things are possible,” the 20-year-old fresh graduate added.

Oduyoye advised young girls to abstain from sex, face their studies and respect people and honour God. But the lady, whose father is a lecturer in the Business Administration Department at Babcock, has a word for the management of the institution.

She stated,  “They should relax the rules. Specifically, I don’t see any reason why a female student should not keep long hairs. Do you know it is so bad that security men on campus can stop a student and cut off her hair? This is not good. After all,  undergraduates are no longer in the secondary school.”

Oduyoye however urged the university to sustain its dress code, though she wants students to be forced into engaging in physical activities. This, she said, is based on the result of a research she did in her final year.

I think the reason why it’s funny to me is because nobody asked her that kind of question. Might be her fantasy but no opportunities or just pure discipline. I just didn’t see any reason to mention that on such occasion. Even though the question had this statement “On how she handled pressure from male students and lecturers” in it, it didn’t call for that answer. Just my own opinion.
