Lady achieves 4 major goals
While some people questioned her decision to start over, the final-year student used the time to build herself. Below are the four achievements she had after being denied admission:
- She became a Chartered Accountant
- She is building FashionXpert from scratch
- She started learning Data Analysis
- She kept becoming a better version of herself
In her LinkedIn post, Oluwaponmile stated:
"She had one dream — to become all she desired and never settle for less. After her second JAMB, University admission still didn’t come. It hurt. The journey felt delayed, and many doubted her path. But she didn’t quit.
She went to The Polytechnic Ibadan, earned her OND, and instead of stopping at HND, she started again from 100 level at EKSU.
People questioned the decision, but she kept going."
She added that her setbacks were not the end but part of her journey, encouraging others to keep building.
