"Give am 70 na, a subtle, but still voice told me"

It was my good side, but i just decided to ignore it

Early last year, a lecturer friend asked me to help him mark some exam scripts

I jumped in and did exactly what was on my mind

So, there is this particular student that had 70, but I decided to give him 69

I felt happy and fulfilled. I mean, me think that if i give this dude 70, he will go and testify in church about how he prayed fervently and all of that. He will go on and brag how brilliant he has always been

See, I'm not that wicked, I just like people sitting up

Social media users were outraged by his revelation and they called him out for it.
