According to the post, when her father was alive, he told her he did not expect anything less than a first class.
Unfortunately, her father died before she could graduate from school. She posted a message her father sent to her in 2020.
Her father had said:
"Amen, just make me proud. I don't expect any grade less than first class. It's not about trying your best but to make it happen."
Although her father is not alive to witness the happy moment, Azeezat said she feels her father is seeing her wherever he is at the moment.
She wrote:
"Daddy can you see me now? Keep resting. Daddy, I did it. This is for you, in loving memory of you."
