    Imagine you were graduating from the Class of 2022 and this was your yearbook. These are your classmates and their personalities. Did we lie?

    Lady Donli

    You know that child who just sits in the corner, minds their business and draws in their sketchbook? That鈥檚 Zainab. She鈥檚 troublesome and loud o, but only around her close friends. And nobody disrespects her because she鈥檚 mysterious. 

    Also, when you open her sketchbook, you see she鈥檚 a brilliant artist, but what she draws will have you wash your eyes with holy water. 

    Tiwa Savage

    She鈥檚 the hot babe of the class. Your smelling class boys don鈥檛 even try moving to her. It鈥檚 only senior boys she rolls with. Her uniform? Always pristine. 

    Portable

    The tout of the class. His uniform is always torn from one fight or another. He has lapalapa on his head. Teachers don鈥檛 bother ensuring he understands what they鈥檙e saying. They already know he can never make it. 

    YKB

    He knows how to get along with teachers while being a bad boy, so everyone likes him. He鈥檚 also really intelligent, so nobody can actually fault him for anything. Oh, and his swag levels? Out of this world. 

    *Enters advertising mode* Yusuf baby is going to rock Z! Fest on Saturday, and you better screaming 鈥淎labama, sheybe leti j鈥檃mala!鈥

    Burna Boy

    His parents are rich, and he used to school abroad, but he鈥檚 back in Nigeria as a punishment. Now, he鈥檚 the class snub who only talks to the other rich kids. Every other person is smelling, and he 肠补苍鈥檛 stand Portable. 

    Dwin the Stoic

    He鈥檚 won all the talent shows since JSS 1 because he knows how to sing and makes it his entire personality. Swag? Zero. Babes? They鈥檝e all friendzoned him. But at least, he can sing.

    *Switches to advertising mode* Dwin the Stoic will be serenading us at Z! Fest on Saturday. We鈥檝e tried, but we actually 肠补苍鈥檛 wait. !

    Tope Alabi

    She has scribbled 鈥淕ive your life to Christ鈥 on her desk. She鈥檚 the chapel prefect who leads the assembly in praise and worship every morning. She sits in front and answers questions like it鈥檚 a competition. She has never gotten anything less than an A in CRK. She鈥檚 also the only one in your set who didn鈥檛 slim-fit her uniform. 

    Ayra Starr

    Social prefect. She brings the vibes on vibes, literally. Never a single dull moment with her.

    *Switches to advertising mode again* She鈥檒l also bring the vibes on vibes to Z! Fest this Saturday, so !

    Teni

    She鈥檚 a bully. Not only to juniors o; even the boys in her class fear her. She sits at the back of the class always. And she brings her phone to school.

    Rema

    All Rema wants to do is attend English class because he鈥檚 in love with the teacher. If you know, you know.
