Celebrating her academic feat on LinkedIn, Success flaunted the 11 awards she won at the school.
Success said she was delayed for 3 years
The young lady noted that there were setbacks behind her success story. She recalled staying home for three years after her secondary school education while her peers progressed. Success wrote:
"...Seven years ago, immediately I graduated high school, I had laid out a well-detailed plan of how my undergraduate studies would play out. Contrary to that audacious plan, I was delayed for 3 years before I could begin my university program. "I had watched life pass me by for those 3 years as a spectator while my peers progressed. It almost threw me into a state of depression, but I learnt from an early age that when one is faced with a difficult problem, one of the first steps to take should be figuring out a solution, not wallowing in self pity or giving up."Lessons Success learnt
Success said she learnt compromise, resilience, perseverance, excellence and sacrifice. The best graduating student in Olusegun Agagu Faculty of Science also shared:
"Ultimately, I have learnt that regardless the hand one is dealt in life, what is important is that you play it the best way you can."She appreciated God, her family, friends and everyone who has been part of her incredible journey.
