"Please, I want to buy new sandals for the boy."
Kwëkù Pãtōø stated:
"My best friend repeated in class 6, but I walked with him to Form 1. The teacher came and gave us a trial exam, so my friend pretended that he was part of us, and he took part. Fortunately, he got the highest mark and didn't go back to class 6. We completed school together, got to the same SHS, and now we are in the same university (UCC). God changes ways when there is no hope."
madienobi reacted:
"My classmate, Theophilus Mensah, was made to repeat. This boy, somehow, gathered some courage and went to JSS with us. The teachers sacked him on the first day, but Mensah came back the following day. They sacked him again the next day, but he returned to class the following day. This sacking went on for about two weeks. The teachers realised Mensah was not ready to go back to class 6. They allowed him, and we completed JSS together."
Khe Rni indicated:
"A funny thing happened in school today, right? One guy was mistakenly promoted to the next class. While his friends had a higher total raw score, he had less but was mistakenly promoted. He was showing it to them. Instead of sending it home, he decided to brag about it. Then his friends came to report the issue. His report card was taken, and the mistake was rectified (he got repeated). He was just crying. Oh, Madam, please, then dashed out to fight his mates who were made to repeat for being snitches."
