 “FLASH BACK EXACTLY SIX WEEKS AGO”

It was a bright Wednesday morning when i decided to make a trip down to Lasu to process my transcript for onward forwarding to my employer. i left home as early as 7am and i got to Lasu around 7:45am, straight i went to Faculty of Management Sciences(FMS) which was my faculty where i graduated from. The faculty premises has changed a bit as there was new structure behind FMS which i learnt is being use for lectures and also a new structure directly opposite FMS which they said is social science faculty.

School was scanty as there was no much activities, the campus marshal were in front of the faculty entrance, i greeted them and made my way to the first floor which was the faculty office but to my dismay, the offices were still locked. The first thing that came to my mind was “this civil servant sha, they are not in the office by this time, when will they come now”…….

I met a tall fair lady around the corridor and greeted her…..

Me: Good Morning….

Lady: Good Morning……

Me: Please when do u think this people will be around

Lady: Sincerely, i don’t know…..am also waiting for them

Me: datz serious………civil servant are always enjoying…coming late to office most times

Lady: Abi…..

Me: Thanks….

Lady: You welcome…………………

]I went downstairs to look around and do some sightseeing as the school premises has really changed from the way it was when i graduated from the school.. Apparently the state government and the school management have been pumping lots of money to the school in terms of infrastructural development.

I walked to the canteen to put something in my stomach and relax a bit till around 8:30 before i decided to check back at the faculty office. Luckily for me, the office was opened and i met a man and a lady there…..

Me: Good morning Sir….

Man: Morning……

Me: please i want to find out about the process of obtaining my transcript……

Man: Ohk…did you finish from this faculty?

Me: Yes Sir…..

Man: Transcript is not process from the faculty office…you will need to go to the ICT centre (Exam and Records Department for the processing)

Me: Ohk…..please where is that sir?

Man: The building is directly opposite MBA hall…do u know MBA?

Me: I guess i know Sir

Man: Just directly opposite MBA building, you will see their building with a mast.

Me: Ohk Sir…thank you so much Sir

Man: You welcome…..

]I dashed out immediately and started thinking that i would have even be through with the processing if i had the right information before coming to the schooling instead of wasting time waiting for the faculty officer……..

I drove down to MBA and the building was so easy to identify…i walked in and made enquiry, which i was told i don’t even need to come to the school for processing my transcript as everything is now online and they don’t request manually again…..the lady that attended to me asked me to visit the school website to request for my transcript……………………….”waoh…..that means my journey to Lasu is a waste as i would have done this at the comfort of my room”.

I walked out and started driving towards the second gate which i came in through….i burst out at iba road and turn back going to Igando….turning back to directly opposite the school gate, standing there was the lady i met at the corridor of the faculty office earlier….waoh, i never got the opportunity to see her physique when we had the conversation then as she rested her a-s somewhere and her hand over her chest with her bag then…..i parked and horn for her

Me: hello……

Lady: Hi

Me: where are you heading to?

Lady: Iyana Ipaja side……

Me: Ohhhh…am going towards egbeda…maybe i can help u a little

Lady: thank so much Sir……..

She hopped in and we started going…………….After a while

Me: Please whats the name if i may ask

Mary: i don’t know oooooo………

Me: Are you not a student of the school

Mary: I graduated 2012………….

Me: Ohh…..am very sorry……

Mary: I only came to make enquiry about my certificate……

Mary: yes..they said i will need to provide some documents in order to collect my certificate

Me: that should be your clearance and some documents
