She said she lost her parents when she was in JSS3 and was helped through school by her brother who is also now late.
Jennifer first went to a college of education before going to the university. She almost dropped out of school but for the intervention of people who gave her scholarships.
She wrote on Facebook:
"Truly it was not an easy journey. At the college I was that girl with only one black gown and one shoe, picking pieces of soap in the bathroom to have a clean bath.
"I lived in the worst environment but was happy I could have a space to keep my table and read. For each night that it rained, I stayed awake to ensure that I control the water."
Jennifer said she has now fulfilled the wishes of her father who pleaded with her to get him a degree no matter what.
