This picture, i took it while i was about writing my West African Examination (WAEC). I was just trying to get alot of things done. I was just 17 years of age, young and innocent all i ever think was just to write the examination then take my aptitude test and get into university, but then i was dealing with my parent's divorce saga, it really affected me psychologically, i wasn't stable as well. I would tell that i managed to pass the exams.

This particular picture was in my polytechnic days, just when i was started polytechnic newly in 2018, the aura of new environment, independent life and still enjoying supports from my sibblings and parents, so i never had much to think of, but the worst happen when my dad withdrew his support from us, i had to face studies and supporting myself by selling female undies, this wasn't just an easy phase for me, i had to even feed myself as well, it became even harder when i was about defending my project as i had used almost all my business capital on the project defence but i am most grateful to God for seeing me through.

This picture was taken on December, 2020. This was my day of defence, i couldnt be more grateful to God for his loce and kindness towards me, but right here, i was thinking of my next step in life, alot got through me that i broke down, no sponsors again, everything was just playing on my head but i pushed them aside and was too grateful to God atleast i never dropped out. The certificate was and is still the crown i hot for persevering even in tough days i never had anything to eat.
This particular picture was taken 2021, i cant remember the month, this was when i left my parent's house to another local government area in search of greener pasture. I left with just a small nylon i put my clothes and had to stay with my eldest sister. I acualy got a job as a supermarket attendat, the pay was 20,000 naira which is equivalent to 45.3 hive, it was a good start, atleast i was able to rent an apartment after staying with my sister for 2 months.

This was taken 2022, i was promoted from a common supermarket attendant to the region manager, my salary was increased to a whooping 50,000 nara which is equivalent to 115 hive. The glorious story behan as i kept growing, there were plenty obstacles that would've stopped me but God still kept me and i became a testament of his love. Even after this, more jobs began coming and I had to choose managing a cloth line which I am still doing till now.
Fast forward to today, the story has changed for good. I wouldn't say I don't know how I got here because I am here by God's grace, this change means a lot to me considering where I am coming from, so far so good, the journey has been a smooth-rough one but I never gave up, God never gave up on me as well. I am just starting and I am believing in God for a more beautiful height to attend.
Just believe in yourself, the road might seem so rough, stay true to yourself, the process can never go unrewarded, time will tell and when it's your season, God will make everything beautiful.
