FASA FRESHMAN FIESTA: VIBRANT NIGHT, FIERCE PAGEANTRY, AND UNFORGETTABLE GROOVES

The Faculty of Arts Students’ Association (FASA) organised a vibrant fresher’s bash on Saturday, February 10th, at Ifeloju Event Center. The energy was electric as hundreds of FASA members, both stalites and fresh students, poured through the doors at 9 pm.

Despite a brief hiccup with ticket checks, the party quickly pulsated with music and good vibes, even spilling outside the packed hall. Dignitaries like FASA President “D’Gov ” and NASELS President Jahz Baba graced the event, while MC Dammycares kept the program lively.

Musical talents Pherami Geerapstar and Anjola set the stage alight with their contrasting styles, before 16 dazzling contestants took centre stage for the highly anticipated pageantry. Fierce competition unfolded as they strutted their stuff in fashion parades, cultural attire, and talent showcases, truly becoming the stars of the night.

Interspersed with dance-offs and fueled by “hard drinks,” the energy soared as Tristan and Itunnu were crowned Mr. and Miss FASA, respectively. But the real climax arrived during the after-party, where students danced and vibed to pulsating music for over an hour, oblivious to the world outside. It wasn’t until 5 am that the DJ shut down the party, leaving behind memories of an unforgettable night.

Afeez: I spent all my educational life up to this moment in Ife. I attended Pearl Preparatory School while in nursery class. I proceeded to Faith Standard Schools for my primary and secondary education. I finished secondary school in 2019, applied for English language here in OAU the same year and I got admitted a few months after. NCB: So you mean to type that English was your first choice. Afeez: Yes. I chose English myself. Actually, when I was in SSS 3, I was indecisive on whether I should pursue a degree in Law or English. Later, I got to find out Law wasn't accredited as a programme in OAU that year and since a passionate love fo...

"I WOULD HATE TO MAKE PROMISES BECAUSE THEN I WOULD BE CHALLENGED TO PERFORM ABOVE THEM." - FRANCIS OHACHO, PRESIDENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH, OAU.

By Mercy Ojegbola NCB: Can we meet you? Francis: I am Francis Fortunatus Ohacho, popularly known as Sael. A part four student in the Department of English, Obafemi Awolowo University, I am the incumbent president of the department's students body. NCB: What motivated you to run for the position of President? Francis: I would like to use cliché pumped up phrases like I'm led by my passion for service and all. People often say they knew I was going for presidency from part one due to my proactiveness, but really I didn't have the Presidency in mind till late second semester of part two. And that's because I have only wanted to support from the sides, being a significant catalyst for development wherever I am. So I've had roles like Vice President and Fin Sec in mind, but not president. I didn't think I had it. My motivation, in summary, would be the realisation of how efficient I can be to an administration. And I don't doubt it, that with the help of the t...
