In a similar story, Hassan Nurudeen Olamide, a graduate of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU) who repeated SS2 and wrote the JAMB exam four times, celebrates online as he bags a first-class degree.

In a video he posted, he showed a clear view of the prize he got for finishing with a first-class in Civil Engineering from Olabisi Onabanjo University.

Boy writes JAMB exam 6 times

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that a Nigerian man shared his experience of writing the JAMB UTME six times before finally securing university admission.

The graduate, identified as @peterbuywin, said that despite consistently scoring above 200 in five of those JAMB attempts, he was constantly rejected from the universities he chose.

@peterbuywin attributed this struggle to two main factors: his insistence on highly competitive schools, like Unilorin, University of Ibadan, and FUTA. The other factor, he said, was his father's pressure to pursue prestigious courses like Medicine and Surgery or Engineering.
