THE TWO-FACED DEVIL

Read Time:1 Minute, 14 Second

The popular price is five thousand
But some do it for four or even less
Like inferno, it spreads over the whole land
If not stopped, will leave us in a big mess

Our educational system is in shambles
Because of this two-faced devil
Though those involved see it as huge gamble
Our present situation almost makes it a necessary evil

Malpractice and ‘sorting’ are the Siamese twins
And Lecturers and students are the progenitors.
Both parties have equal share in these sins
All in a bid to show merit the exit doors

Tutors often instigate this maze
By churning out in their exams conundrums
A way to make average students dazed
To them, poorer performance means larger sum

With their holier-than-thou attitude
They stand in class and blame our leaders
For massive corruption and flagrant ineptitude
Yet they perpetuate sins worse than Judas’

It is funny but let’s watch the game play
Lecturers and students are now business competitors
Contract the students and they will impersonate any day
Or pay the lecturers, and re-write behind closed doors
