Nnamdi Azikiwe is the heartbeat of the University of Ibadan. The only component of being a Zikite is Zikism. Zikism is greatness simplified. Zikites have it big in the last two weeks. From the Hall winning the Inter-Hall Football Competition, winning the Hall of the year at the Students’ Union Event and the Hall Chairman winning the Hall Chairperson of the year. What a time!
Everyone is impressed. Being a Zikite has no expiry date. Alumni have been massive with their support. This is a testament to the fact that greatness poured by Zikism is indelible.
The Hall Warden, a Zikite himself concerning the recent wins noted thus: “I am not surprised at all, in fact, if we had performed below that would have given me serious concern, that means Zik hall is not living up to its name, Even our anthem is testament to our greatness. We lead in everything and it is not now, it is not new, it is just that we cannot allow that glory to come down, we must keep flying. Don’t forget if Zik hall sneezes, UI catches cold. So, I am not surprised by our outstanding performances.”
THE OTHER WAY ROUND
Many Zikites have lost the ideal maintenance culture. They use properties of the Hall like it is something of no worth. Imagine destroy all facilities in the Hall, of what benefit will it be to anyone, not even the destroyer. A case study is how the chairs in the room are being maintained poorly. A lot of chairs were got by the Hall management sometimes ago for Zik Hall reading rooms, sadly, many of them have been destroyed due to the dearth of maintenance culture of some Zikites. It is high time common sense is deployed by erring Zikites. Poor maintenance culture is not Zikism.
