There are no limitations to what we can do.
This young lady’s story has been
trending on social media after she shared how she managed to survive
while at the University of Ilorin.
According to Adebayo Oluwatoyin,
She was able to complete her degree in Accounting at the University of
Ilorin with the little money she saved every day from selling noodles
and egg. She persevered even though some people laughed at her. She was
also able to help her sister and pay her house rent.
Read her inspiring story below.
Felt like yesterday when all I always looked forward to was the long sessional holiday… This is just so I could come home and make money for the next session. I had to find ways to make money because there was little my mum could do to meet all the expenses for me and my sister…
Some people laughed at me, some encouraged me while some invested their change in my business.. I sold noodles and egg, and from the little I made I made sure I saved something every day. At the end of the three months break, I had enough money to pay my sister and my school fees, my house rent and enough money to last me a whole semester.By the grace of God I have completed my degree with a Second Class Upper in Accounting and right now my sister is waiting for her admission into the university too. Looking back now, it’s my success story because with that kind of hustle, nobody had to run helter skelter to look for money to cater for those expenses. Just right there, mama’s smile revealed her pride in me…
