THE AFTERMATH


There is no doubt HELB is in most students’ pockets and so far a lot has transpired since the funds were released to the students. The Communicator’s Ronald Agak takes an insight into the HELB aftermath.

EXAM SURERITY.
Those students who had prayed all day and night for the University Administration to consider conditions for doing exams are now happy people. Implying being allowed to do exams even if they did not clear their fees in the event the exams commenced before the funds were disbursed. These breeds of student now have all the reasons to do exams and no excuse not to seat for exams because of fees. Most of these students have already uploaded the HELB funds into the University’s fees account and now enjoy their sleep without nightmares. They now attend lectures without any stress and have that time to laugh or smile when a lecturer cracks a joke during a lecture as opposed to before.
FRAKAZ RELOADED.
The famous is not left out in this merry making. Its customers had tremendously reduced before the funds were released. Things have changed and now those comrades who had really missed the bottle now flock frakaz to ensure that they enjoy their ‘sweat’. The academic highway had had a drought of broken bottles. It is at the moment not left out in the celebration of the arrival of the ‘sweet baby’, HELB. The hostel corridors especially those for men have also joined the merry making. The Frakazers now come late in the night during the weekends and shout out their hearts in these corridors. We really did miss the shouts.
REJUVENATED LOVE
Love birds have either been happy or some have had their hearts broken. Earlier love was hanging on the thread. There were no big bucks to flourish the love. The number of female visitors in men’s hostels has significantly swollen and that of male visitors in female hostels too. The chips cafes now host a large number of customers. Thanks to the HELB rejuvenated love. It’s not a good luck for some love birds. Some have been dumped for greener pastures because either the bucks have increased to accommodate a new catch or one has been dumped because another favorite has more bucks than the former sweetheart. This is just a game, let the winners celebrate and losers console themselves and hope to win next time. The game is still on.
DEBTORS AND CREDITORS.
The debtors have not fully enjoyed these funds because they had to leak out some amount to settle the debts they had taken to enable them make life in campus comfortable and bearable. Creditors on the other hand have had quite a nice time. Their count of bucks had been reloaded for the amount they had loaned out. Interestingly, there has been a game of hide and seek. Some debtors have tried as much as possible either not to meet their creditors or failing to receive their calls.
Anyway, that is how life is. Furahia maisha au sio?
