Every classroom has that one legendary entrepreneur. You know the type—the student who doesn't just come to school to learn, but sets up a full-scale micro-finance bank right inside his desk!
Take a look at this scene. While standing by the board to anchor the class, this young man casually opened up his palm to reveal an impressive stash of ballpoint pens in every color imaginable. Green, blue, transparent, clickers—you name it, he has liquidity!
Meanwhile, look at the other students pointing fingers at him. It’s an ongoing investigation: “Sir, he is the one hoarding all the pens! That’s why nobody else can write notes!”
In a typical Nigerian secondary school, owning more than two working pens at a time automatically elevates you to VIP status. Before you know it, classmates are queuing up to borrow, drop collateral, or negotiate high-interest pen loans before the next subject begins.
Let’s talk about it. Were you the designated "pen banker" in your school days, or were you always begging classmates to borrow just one biro? Drop your funny school memories in the comments below! 👇
