I just remembered Barr. Steve that said as students, we should be in school from 8am till 4pm. Apparently, it didn't matter if he came late or not, it was our duty to keep waiting. The Nigerian school system is wack.
I was glad to see that NLS kept to time.
A lecturer will come late and make no apologies to the students who have been waiting for a while. But when the students come late, he begins to fume. We are supposed to respect each other's time. The responsibility is not just on one party.
