Most African university graduates do dream of becoming a
lecturer. We all know about the bright future of lecturers, the
respect they controlled and the wealth that followed them.
Yea being a lecturer gives one the opportunity to get to the very top
if he’s s-erious about it.
As a lecturer you have a clear path towards becoming a professor
and it’s now left for you to work towards making it happen.
I was opportune to travel to Canada for my masters degree,
immediately after my Nysc. I returned to Nigeria two years later
and quickly married a family friend’s daughter whose father was
equally the Dean of Education faculty in the university that
employed me two months after my wedding. I had my life well
planned out. I already knew what to do and what not to do in
achieving my goals.
My parents were equally supportive and moderately wealthy. They
supported me in everything.
Being the last child in the family of two girls, i was overly
pampered by my parents and siblings, even after my marriage to
Jessica who equally was a nurse in the state General hospital.
I soon started work as a lecturer with a strong spirit towards
correcting all the wrongs in the university system. I swore to stand
straight in my dealings with students. I swore never to
compromise my dignity and be a good man respected by everyone
but unfortunately it was easier said than done. Being a lecturer
opened my eyes to the realities on ground. Politics and corruption
was already well embedded in the university system that you either
join in the show or look the other way. I was young and ambitious.
The options before me was simply unimaginable.
Hmmmm, well at first i was forced to look the other way and face
my classroom work, which i did with great zeal . I handled Bio 101,
102, 201, 202, 301, 354 & 402. It really wasn’t easy for me at all
and to worsen my situation some of the senior lecturers i shared
the courses with, left everything for me to handle alone and the
number of students offering the courses were quite enormous.
But that wasn’t even the major problem. As soon as the first exam
i was to participate as a lecturer arrived, more temptations poured
in..
The first temptation was from final year student known as
comfort. She was the first to tempt me.
How did it all happen??
To be continued in SEASON TWO....
