SCHOOL NA SCAM



I learnt I was going to be a father in November 2018, that was doing my I.T period. I couldn't really sum up what laid ahead of me but I knew it wasn't going to be easy.


My initial thought was to suspend studies and focus on the baby's arrival as well as the wellbeing of the mother.


School resumed in january but I couldn't go as there wasn't money to return back talk more of paying my fees. I was at home for close to three months. My mates in school had moved on concluding I wouldn't resume again.


Pst. Mbakara Obong as well as the mother of my beautiful daughter encouraged me to just wrap up my final year. I can't really recall how the money came but I was able to pay my fees and I resumed school.


I struck a COVENANT with God promising to be diligent in my service to Him while He provides my weekly transport so I can attend church on Sunday and also tend to the mother of my daughter...God did His part perfectly well and I did mine too.


Resuming school few weeks to exams wasn't funny...I was in class but my mind was always at home. I hardly ask or answer questions in class...I just had a mental picture of what my daughter would look like and that motivated me all through.


Project came. There was no money anywhere. I prayed and cried every night. I hardly slept. 


I was opportuned to listen to a song "IYANU"  by IBK (I think y'all should listen to it) and I drew strength from the song every minute of the day as it was on repeat throughout my final year.


God had a way of providing for my daily meals. My faith - level was so high, I just knew God cannot fail.


On this particular morning, I was led to reach out to two persons, One was a facebook friend I have been following for years and the other was the pastor of our family church back in lagos.


Through them, I was able to get money for my project. My first experiment in the lab was a total waste of money, time & resources. I almost dumped the entire work. Maybe some other time, I'll share how God helped me scale through.


To be honest, I don't know what I wrote in my examination but I kept on repeating I won't fail. There was a course the lecturer refused me writing because she claimed I didn't have up to 75% attendance and that led to me having an extra year.


I should be resuming school this coming session but I don't know if it'll be possible except God makes a way and I believe He will.


PS: There are still so many experience i'll love to share with you that happened in my final year...I'll do that someday!


The story continues...

THE CONFESSION

Image
    I dated a beautiful and smart girl throughout my senior secondary school days. She was fondly called "maggie" or "Agbani" because of her height and beauty. I vividly remember during one of our "alone" moments after exams, I told her I would love to have seven (7) daughters and one would come on or before I clocked 25years. Babe was shocked. All my life, I've lived & spent most of my time around women. I had three sisters, I was mum's favourite child, I spent holidays with my aunts and majority of my friends were ladies, I don't know why. Truth was, I had figuratively planned my years without putting God in it because I wasn't interested in God or what He had to offer (as at then). I was a good boy who had good/sound morals but I never believed in God or experience Him.  I confessed that particular dream to her till it became part of me and as power would have it, I had my daughter (Baby Smile) when I was 24years. It dawned on me whe

LEAVING HOME!

Image
1st January 2020, I had a strong urge to leave home with my family. I had nothing on me except my transport down to Uyo. I didn't know where to go or the life I was gonna start there. I called my close friend and asked if I could stay a few days, he outrightly declined stating he would be uncomfortable with my baby, the cries, the poo and other excuses I can't remember. This was someone I could sacrifice for. I took it in good faith. . Standing at the junction, Sunshine asked me where we gonna stay and I said God has it all planned. Then I heard a still voice, "Call Ezekiel Victory ". Immediately I called her, she asked me to come over as there was a spare room we could manage for the mean time. She inquired what we would love for breakfast and quickly prepared it. We were warmly welcomed by her elder sister Jennifer Tom-okonko, her brother Precious Ezekiel and friend Monday Martins Effiong. Every moment spent with this persons was priceless and one I would never forg
