A book titled " Varsity Guard", written by Mr Shadrack Akinola, was launched at a ceremony done virtually in Lagos recently. Speaking on what prompted him to write the book, Akinola said his personal experience while in the university motivated him to do so. He recalled that despite putting a lot to his studies while in the university, he still had an extra year because of some mistakes he made.
“The book is an experiential guide and a product of over seven years of continuous research just to make the book as rich and as well applicable in modern day times as possible. “Some of the benefits of the book are; sensitizing students about choosing a career, the ripple effects they never consider which happen after school, imploring a 360 degrees approach to living well and productively on campus, effects of drug abuse to mention a few,” he said.
Akinola also noted that the need
for quality orientation of youths could not be over-emphasized given the many
negative things competing for their attention. Akinola’s efforts for putting up
such a rich and timely write-up were commended by those present at the book
launch. The book was then recommended for students and parents consumption and usage.
