Relationships

 A while back there was a certain message that was going around Whatsapp groups where Mama Abby was trying  to tell her side of the story. The annoying part of the message is that one has to navigate the horrible grammar, horrendous spelling and sentence construction to figure out what the author is trying to communicate.

 It is painful to imagine that the author of such a message is a university student and of a woman who seems to have held (at least for some time) the affections of a man who often portrays the image of a man with a fair amount of intelligence.

It is clear that there is a certain daftness in today's college girls who in addition to lacking the ability to spell appear clueless on how to manage their ability to attract sponsors. To avoid getting into tricky situations here are few rules for campus chicks who choose to enjoy patronage from sponsors.

• The sponsors do not choose you because you are the hottest thing on the planet. The sponsors recognise that is cheaper and more cost effective to seduce a campus chick than a working class girl. A working class girl will make outlandish demands like rent, a Vitz and trips abroad. So the more sensible plan is to go for the Campus girl whose basic demands include cash for airtime, for buying the latest mane or horse hair or red Nouba matt lipstick.

“Unprotected sex even with a generous sponsor

can have fatal consequences plus the less evidence

we have of your sponsor relationship the better.”

 

• Campus chicks have since time immemorial imagined that that they will be forever young- yet that is the height of foolishness. My dear sisters in campus, Your shelf life is at worst two years and at best four years. The Sponsor's shelf life on the other hand is determined by his wallet. So use your shelf life as finite resource for your maximum benefit-you will not be cute and attractive forever

• My sisters in campus, You might not think so now, but one day you will most likely want to settle down and get married. You might not think so now, but your best bet for husband material will be your fellow campus students who right now do not seem to count for much especially since they are perennially broke.

We understand that your sponsor meets your material needs for now but think of your emotional needs in the long term. For this reason, do not allow your sponsor to drop , pick or visit you in college-use Uber. Do what you must to ensure that you still have campus boyfriend who you one day can mislead and walk down the aisle and turn him into the husband you need him to be.

• It does not matter how much cash the sponsor gives you, or how much he says he loves you, use protection all the time. Sponsors like to hedge their bets all over the place and are good at transferring diseases and making babies.

“Unprotected sex even with a generous sponsor can have fatal consequences plus the less evidence we have of your sponsor relationship the better.”

• Do not neglect your studies:Ensure that you graduate- having a good sponsor does not always translate into getting a good job. Do not skip classes or fail to submit assignments just because your sponsor is taking you to coast to parade you to his friends.

Always treat the sponsor just like he treats you- as extra curricular activity. And no matter what else happens learn how to speak and write properly-not like Mama Abby.
