JAMB/2026 UTME: Lady shares father's reaction
Despite the things she went through last year just to pass her JAMB examination, she explained that she couldn't get admission because her father didn't approve of her score.
@odunayo.06 explained:
"Let me tell you something. When I saw 250 on my JAMB result last year, I cried. Not because 250 was bad. In my house, 250 should have been a celebration. But in my house, nobody celebrates anything."
"I live with my parents where everything is tight, but at least we thank God."
"When my dad saw the 250, he just laughed. ‘250? You wan use 250 cook soup? Better go learn tailoring from Iya Risikat. At least customer go pay you every week.’"
"My mum didn’t say anything. She never does. That’s our family poor. If you’re hungry, you find food. If you fail, you find something else to do. Nobody has energy to console you."
"I was 17. I didn’t have textbooks. My senior gave me Lekki Headmaster then, and it was missing pages 8 to 20. I read under the phone torchlight because we hadn’t seen NEPA in weeks."
"I wanted Mass Communication at UNILORIN. With 250, I didn’t even get KWARAPOLY."
"My aunty told me straight: ‘God no create everybody to go school, go do monthly work.’"
"So I found work. I did POS every morning till evening, earning ₦15,000 a month."
"Every night, I worked on my reading habit, solving past questions. My phone was cracked, data slow, but I was solving Literature on YouTube at 144p. People said, ‘Why you dey kill yourself? Your papa no go pay shishi.’"
"I know. That’s why I told myself next year, I must score 300."
"I left where I was working for another place where they were paying me ₦13,000 for part time. When I heard JAMB registration was ongoing, I applied and registered for tutorials, using money from my salary to pay the fees."

A year later, she sat for the 2026 UTME and got a very high score.
However, when @odunayo.06 went home and informed her dad, his reaction and statement put her in a different mood.
She continued:
"I was at my workplace when my tutorial friend called me, ‘Ola, go and check your result.’ I went to check it, Omo, 297!"
"297. CRS 78. Literature in English 72. Government 70. English 77."
Speaking about her dad’s reaction after he saw her result, she explained:
"I ran home without telling anyone at my shop. I thought this time my dad would smile. My mum would hug me."
"He was watching TV. ‘297? Okay. But where the school fees dey?’"
"My mum was so excited and said, ‘How are we going to do it now?’ That silence hurt more than the 250 did. Because this time, I did my part. But they were still too tired to believe."
"I didn’t cry that night. I just sat outside and made a plan. Is this how 297 will waste again?"

Sugar heaven noted:
"When I got admission I didn't even have 1k on me, my mom was critically ill 😭 but with God I'm a graduate now."
Fareedah added:
"Omorr I scored 307 last year and my parents were like u would have scored 350+ then it's have been easier to get into school in a country like Nigeria, I understand what they're saying then this year 290+ I just knew my chances reduced even more according to them. Make sure you get into your preferred institution first and apply for NELFUND they will help pay for fees and give you stipend every month and always show up here the Lord his your strength dear . You will find help you need in Jesus name."

"You’ll go to that school of your choice, people will celebrate you, you’ll come out with first class, nothing will hinder your success! Amen."
