In 2024, Juliana recounted a dream she had while at a friend's place.
UNILAG student's odd dream
According to Juliana, she dreamt, and in the dream, someone appeared to her and directed her to retake the UTME. She claimed she replied to the fellow that registration had closed, but the person still encouraged her to just check.
After that dream, and with another 'strong' reminder, Juliana decided to check and found out that the registration for the post-UTME was still open.
She stated that she studied hard and eventually succeeded.
"Early 2024, I had a dream that changed everything. While staying over at a friend’s place during her house job, someone appeared to me in my dream and said, “Retake JAMB.” I immediately thought, “Registration is closed” But the voice replied, “Just check.”
"Backstory: While at The Polytechnic of Ibadan, I knew I wanted more. HND wasn’t enough for me. I faced a lot of discouragement people saying, “It won’t work,” or “You’ll waste time trying Direct Entry.” I even visited UI, LASU, Yaba Tech, and got admission into UNILAG DLI (Part-time), but I wasn’t satisfied.
"After that dream, I initially brushed it off. But later that night, while showering at home, the voice came again strong and clear: “Check if JAMB registration is still on.”
"I checked. It was still open. I shared it with my sister, my friend, and a few others—they encouraged me, and I went for it. I studied seriously, prepared rigorously, wrote the exam, completed the Post-UTME, and by God’s grace, I succeeded. With all my heart, I wanted LASU—but God had a bigger plan.
"Today, I’m a student of the University of Lagos , and from the very first day of lectures, I’ve felt deeply that I’m here for a purpose. This journey reminds me that God’s timing is perfect, and His plans are always higher than ours. Glory to God! 🙌✨," Juliana's Linkedln post shared in April read.
