Lady Recounts How Unilag Frustrated Her Because Of Final Year Project

Nigerian blogger, Osas has taken to social media to narrate how her tertiary education was frustrating because her final year project was about se.xual harassment.

Osas revealed that she thought of dropping out of school numerous times and she lost interest in school the moment a lecturer moved to her.

According to her, her final year project centered on se.xual harassment did not sit well with some of the lecturers because her idea came after the infamous ‘sex for grades’ documentary that sparked controversies in the educational eco system.

Sharing photos of her dressed in her graduation regalia, she wrote;

You guyssss, thank you for the love 💜

Four years in Unilag and there was no day I didn’t threaten to drop out. The moment a lecturer moved to me, I lost total interest in school and hated that school with my entire being. Yes, I got carry overs in his courses for two years plus even though his courses were where my strength lied.

In my final year, I did my final year project on the Me too movement which was centered around sexual harassment, this topic didn’t sit well with some of my lecturers because this was coming after the Sex for grades documentary. When I got to chapter four, my supervisor swore that she didn’t remember approving my topic, I left her office and broke down.

On the day of my defense, the men on my panel were the ones that were most notorious in that field. They finished me.

I was the only one with that topic in the entire department and my work was impeccable as acknowledged by the sub supervisor I was referred to but they didn’t even let me introduce myself before they asked why I picked the topic. My supervisor had to beg them to let me go.  At that point, I just wanted to graduate, I didn’t even care anymore. It finally happened today and I’m glad I saw this this through for the sake of my late mom and late Roli(third slide). They both started this journey with me but didn’t get to finish it with me.

Rest In Peace my beautiful women, I finally did it.

Ps: last slide is how I started six years ago 😭😭😭
