UI student studies law because of eggroll
The student explained that his sister agreed to buy him the snack but attached a condition that he would become a lawyer in the future.
Excited by the offer, he said he immediately accepted the deal without fully understanding what it meant.
According to him, he is now studying law not because of a long-term childhood plan but because of the promise he made to his sister many years ago.
He wrote:
"I see a lot of you are quite curious about the rationale behind egg roll story.
So, this is the full story behind the egg roll.😂
While growing up, I wanted to become a banker or an accountant whenever I was asked this popular "What do you want to become in future?" question.
One a fateful day, I was craving an egg roll so bad, and as a kid, the only way I could afford that is to ask my sister to get it for me. As of then, egg roll was N50 and way bigger.
Nothing like the suffering they sell for ₦500 today.
I told her to get me the 6 she agreed, but with a clause attached to it, which is to become a lawyer. The mumu in me coveteously accepted the egg roll in exchange for this shege.😭😂
What started out as a means of satisfying the worms in my belly began to be something real.
So yes, I am here today chasing a law degree, not because of some grand revelation or a carefully thought out life plan, but because I was hungry one afternoon and my sister outsmarted me with an egg roll.😭
May God see me through this, abeg.😂🙏"
