A cut from a Punch Newspaper with Honourable Patrick Obahiagbon;
Punch - Did you write exams in school in these big words?
Hourable- I used such words very-very freely in my exams both at the secondary school and in my university and little wonder I had the misfortune of my English results being seized intermittently in my O’ Levels. WAEC released my results for the other subjects and withheld my English result. This happened for about three years. Twice, I passed the University Matriculation Examination but I could not proceed to the University because of my English results that... were not released. At the end of the day, it was released after the third attempt.
