Legit.ng contacted the young lady who was offered admission by the University of Lagos (UNILAG) years after finishing secondary school, multiple years of staying out of school.
Legit.ng tabled a few questions before her, one of which was asking what made her return to school after eight years.
She responded briefly. Her statement:
"Hmmm, I decided to go back to school after eight years because I had other fulfilling things to do. I wanted to make money and get myself together before returning to school."
Also, she spoke about how she spent her time over the eight years.
"Hmmm, during that period, it was tough and, you know, I was a bit sad because most of my friends from secondary school had already gained admission and were in school, while I was still at home trying to figure myself out. I also wished to go, but who would sponsor me?"
"My parents are not really buoyant enough to do that, so I made up my mind that if I had to wait for so long to fulfil my journey, I would. During that period, I decided to learn computer skills for some time, for about two years, but I wasn't really into it because I wanted quick money, so later on."
"I decided to learn makeup, and I started my makeup journey in 2021. I started learning and trained for a year because I was so much in love with my boss. She was very accommodating at the time, so I felt relaxed, and ever since I started this journey, I have been enjoying it and building my portfolio. I am still in the beauty industry."
Also, in her TikTok story, she mentioned that she wrote the JAMB examination just once, and, as a result, Legit.ng asked how she was able to do that, what her score was, and which course she was offered.
She explained:
"Yeah, I wrote JAMB once. I was offered Public Administration."
"My advice to people is that 'Delayed is never a denial.' If your journey is rough, find a way and still shape it back. Tell yourself you can do it, be determined and prayerful, and trust me, you'd get there."
