After completing the WAEC exams, taking the JAMB exams, scoring 180 in JAMB, practicing JAMB past questions for POST UTME, paying acceptance fees, house rent, SUG dues, departmental dues, and other expenses, carrying files from one office to another, trekking from the school gate to your department under the hot sun, drinking garri for months, standing in long queues at the ATM stand, completing numerous assignments, visiting friends for food, buying recharge cards for assignments, standing up for first-timers in fellowship, overcoming the challenges of living without parents, surviving the pressures of difficult lecturers, having sleepless nights preparing for exams, attending night classes and tutorials, participating in prayer gatherings and performing all the 5 solats daily, overcoming the stress of lecturer theatrics, and arguing with students who try to secure space for their friends with various items, all for 2-5 years and finally writing your final exams.
It is at this point that an old witch from your village may come and say that you won't graduate with your peers, you won't succeed in life, you won't find a decent job, you won't make money in your business, or you won't get married at the right time.
I pray for you that anyone who has spoken negatively about your future will live to see you celebrated by nations in Jesus' name, Amen.
