A Nigerian man identified as @askcoachboy on X has shared a touching tribute to his sister, Awe Elizabeth Kehinde, following her induction into the nursing profession.

The academic challenge
The proud brother revealed that he once challenged Elizabeth to prove her academic brilliance by beating his own JAMB record. He admitted that the challenge backfired as she "floored" him by a margin of 38 points.
Despite her high score, she could not secure her desired course, Nursing, on her first attempt. Undeterred, she sat for the examination again and moved the bar even higher.
He wrote:
"She went again and this time scored 303 in Jamb, top 3 in her post Jamb in UI Nursing and the rest they say is history. Today she's been inducted and will be taking oaths."
From 'spoilt brat' to nurse
The man jokingly described his sister as having been a "spoilt brat" because their mother had retired from the strict discipline used on the older brothers. However, he noted that her love for education was always evident.
He expressed his joy at seeing the "sweet little girl" grow into a graduate. The post was accompanied by a photo of Elizabeth looking professional in her medical scrubs.
