Students of the Federal College of Education (FCE) Osiele, Abeokuta, combine academic work with relaxation, sporting activities, and small-scale businesses to manage life on campus.
A recent report revealed that weekdays at the school are dominated by lectures, assignments, and group discussions. After classes, many students said they spend time with friends in hostels, relax at spots on campus, or eat at food outlets.
“After a stressful day of lectures, I usually go to one of the food canteens with my friends. It helps us feel refreshed,” a student from the Department of Music said.
Weekends, however, take a different turn. Some students rest or catch up on assignments, while others reported engaging in football, table tennis, and athletics. Meanwhile, some others use weekends to run small businesses, including selling phone accessories, thrift clothes, or online deliveries, to supplement their income. For many, Sunday is reserved for religious activities in churches and fellowships across the campus.
