I knew Stephen would fail after seeing him with a gal not long ago.

Why are people surprised by Presec's performance ‍♂️ the lecturers in Legon go over to teach them, and these are the same lecturers that set NSMQ questions. They are even supposed to have more trophies than this.

@_DrNewton said:

Let’s be fair. This isn’t a fair competition so far.

@PaaManuel asked:

Will Motown still win?

@keghnenmanasseh posted:
