10 SETS OF ROOMMATE YOU WILL FIND IN EVERY OAU HOSTEL

Share

There are different types of roommates you will find in every Nigerian university. Unless your family is the buoyant type that can afford to rent a room for you off-campus, you will probably share a room with both strangers and friends alike.

However, the thing about friends sometimes is that you might love them and be compatible with them when you are not living together but when you move in together, you will find out how incompatible you all are. Sometimes friends can’t live together because of the varying differences in lifestyle. Finding the perfect roommate is harder than finding a unicorn. People aren’t perfect, the way we live differs from the way someone else lives.

Having several roommates could be frustrating at times but these are what make school life interesting. It is no doubt that every OAU hostel is filled with different sets of roommates and there are always these 10 sets of roommates you will find in every hostel.
