A young arts student who participated in the post-UTME examination of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) has shared his experience online after dedicating three months to studying only Government, a subject he openly dislikes. The student, identified on social media as @zeliqisALONE06, posted a screenshot of his OAU post-UTME results, revealing a score of 9 out of 10 in Government, despite his aversion to the subject.
Student Explains His Dislike for Government
In the comments section of his viral post, @zeliqisALONE06 elaborated on why he dislikes Government. He stated that the subject contains too many subtopics, definitions, lists, and merits and demerits to memorize, making it a difficult and unappealing subject for him. “Too many subtopics and definitions. Too many lists, merits & demerits to memorise… etc. So yes! I hate it,” he wrote.
Despite his dislike, the student dedicated three months to reading only a Government textbook in preparation for the OAU post-UTME. He expressed his achievement in a tweet: “Took me 3 months of reading only Government to achieve that 9/10?? This is a subject I always disliked. History could tell, but we thank God.”
