“This is the best game that I have ever played in Crawford University”, those were the words of the Manager of ATHLETICO FC, David Ojediran popularly known as ATM, after his team won the latest edition of Crawford University Football League, popularly called ‘CRU La-Liga’ on Friday. The League which started in mid-November was wrapped up on Friday when the table-toppers, ATHLETICO FC defeated the AMAZING FC team in a 6 goals to 1 victory in what could be described as an unbelievable, unimaginable, unfeasible yet deserved victory for the winners. The win, which was the determinant of the league winner, was unarguably the best way for the Winners to have silenced their critics who had earlier in the league condemned ATHLETICO FC to a bad League outing. It was a shock to the whole Soccer-Community of Crawford University when after 90 minutes; the score-line was 6 goals to 1. It was stupendous!! It was flabbergasting!! It was colossal!!! It was…… Oh My God…..What more can I say?? Spe

In this 21st century, there is a rapid growth in infant birthrate across the world. This reassures us that even though people die every day, there is a sufficient amount of babies being brought to life daily. Nevertheless, the bringing up of a child has been generally termed as difficult, uneasy, stressful and sometimes resentful, although this has usually been proved to be inconsequential and irrelevant in the later-years of the child.   During the process of raising a child, there are different stages that parents go through which include personal encounters, inter-relational occurrences, bizarre events, challenges etc. The child, because he is developing must go through several stages which comes in handful with merits and demerits as compulsory requirements.

Hey everyone, how are ur respective vacations going???? This piece was written by a friend so I decided to share; its about the reality of Success!!!!! Success is a journey                        ISN'T SUCCESS A JOURNEY?  There's practically no need to explain what a journey is, but in the simplest of terms, it's a voyage or adventure taken up by a person or group. But then, is success really a journey? On the surface, oh it sound weird but a deeper look at it reveals that yes, it's actually a journey.  Every journey has key elements: the vehicle, the road, the driver, the fare and passengers. Similarly, on the academic aspect, you as a student are the driver; you decide and control every affair of your life and succeed or failure is highly contingent on YOU!  Paradoxically, you're also the passenger, you board your vehicle and pay for it. What then is the vehicle? I recommend hardwork and prayer, they're veritable and viable indeed. The fare
