Nigerian man mocks E-money after Unilag denies issuing honorary degree to him

- The University of Lagos recently published names of people who were issued honorary degrees and music boss E-money’s name was absent

- This list came shortly after E-money claimed to have been issued a honorary degree at an event held at the university

- A social media user has shaded the music boss after the whole drama saying that has no verifiable source of income

When an individual is outstanding in their field, some top universities can decide to honour them even if they never had a formal education. For this reason, top authors and poets and artists have been honoured in such manner.

One of the prestigious universities in Nigeria, University of Lagos, recently published a list of people who were issued honorary degrees at the school.

The list was published on their Facebook page and Five Star Music boss, E-money’s name was obviously missing from the list.

This clarification from the school came shortly after the business man revealed on social media that he was issued a honorary degree by the European American University at an event held at Unilag.

Many people took this to mean Unilag had issued the degree and it was trailed by several reactions.

A Twitter user, Mr Aye Dee, took to the site to mock E-money and others who believed Unilag honoured him. According to the internet user, E-money has no verifiable source of income.

He tweeted: "Somebody who calls himself ‘emoney’, a person with no verifiable source of income, this person claimed he got an honorary Doctorate degree from UNILAG of all places and some actually believed it? "

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...

TYPES OF DRAMA II

Comedy: We use the words 'comedy' and comic to describe something that is funny in our everyday lives. These include a joke or a fantastic story that is full of nonsense, or an absurd appearance that makes us giggle, smile or laugh. Comedy is not inherent in things or people but the way things/people are perceived. Comedy is a deliberate presentation of events/experiences drawn from real life but not the same with real life. We should therefore not expect dramatic comedy to be the same as real life. Generally, the plays have good endings or resolutions, so when a play ends happily, we refer to it as comedy. In most comedies, the principal characters begin in a state of opposition either to one another or to their world or both. By the end of the play their opposition .is replaced by harmony. Aristotle in-.his “Poetics” insisted that in tragedy men are shown “better than they are”, while in comedy “worse than they are”. For him it is an artistic imitation of men of inferi...
