Walking long distances on Africa’s most beautiful University, OAU can be exhausting, especially when you’re already dealing with the stress of coursework and exams. In a fresh episode of Trybe’s Opinion , we asked 20+ OAU students to share the longest distance they’ve ever had to trek on campus.
In this blog post, we’ll be sharing some of the most hilarious response we got
1. @OdunayoSodiya

“Let me drop this moment. My first time traveling abroad, I entered the plane and turned left, the air hostess called me back and said “this is not your class.” I swallowed my spit & respected myself.
Then we had a long stopover and i was so tired, needed to sleep and relax my head, again, i saw people walking into this nice comfortable lounge so i followed them. They asked for my boarding pass again and the response was “This is not for your class”.
