Something weird is happening at Redeemer’s University

Also: What’s broke long-distance love like? [View in browser](=.0C_lC2V94K2bPV5CFNlqZcIcQwx9vtJ9p8nexRZbMDw) [Zikoko Daily] 12 February, 2024 Hey . I highly suspect Nigeria has replaced Mercury in proximity to the sun, because what the hell is this heat? On top of that, there’s no light, and the whole of Africa is laughing at our AFCON downfall. I blame City Boy and that wannabe-Nigerian Astrid babe for these afflictions. 😭 Anyway, let’s get into today’s newsletter. Some law graduates from Redeemer’s University claim they’re unable to go to law school, which is weird because the school is officially accredited and is still admitting students. 🤔 Anyway, we did our investigation below. 👇🏾 Also, for this week’s #NairaLife, we got a freelance couple to share how they navigate “love sturvs” on their unstable incomes.

At one point, I almost started singing, “So, this is love?” They were that cute.] How do they manage with their unstable incomes? “There’s no month that goes by that we don’t send each other money. I haven’t had a steady income in a while, but whenever I get anything from favours or random gigs, I send a token with a narration like, “I’m grateful I’m able to love you with my money”. I get a sense of fulfilment from it.” They don’t always agree on money matters, though. “Recently, someone sent me ₦20k. The plan was for me to travel and spend some time with my big sister in Abuja. But I used most of it to pay tithe — I accumulate my tithe and pay when it’s gotten to a tangible amount — and announced to him today that I no longer had money to travel.
