A very brilliant Nigerian boy has scored an incredible 9 A1s in his WASSCE and 332 in UTME but will not be admitted to university for a some reason.

When David Okorogheye of Starfield College, Fagba, Iju, Lagos was preparing for the May/June 2018 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) and the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), there were high hopes that by October he would be in the university.

With the 2018 results of the May/June WASSCE and UTME out and his stellar performance, his classmates and school, parents as well as relations concluded he will secure automatic admission or be among the first on the merit list of the University of Lagos.

They were wrong. Despite his sterling performance in both examinations, the Delta State born lad was denied admission on account of his age.

He is 15 years old and a candidate must be 16 years before he/she can be offered admission into UNILAG and some other universities in the country.

His classmates, teachers and family members have resigned to fate that in the 2018/2019 admission exercise, David will not participate due to age barrier. In fact, he was not part of applicants that wrote UNILAG post UTME test recently.

Bloggers bloggers bloggers... If you don't settle down to read their posts, they can almost make a resolute person clinically insane.

Question, did he apply to unilag? Or are you just stating the facts about their admission protocols. Cause you made It seem like he applied, was denied and just realized the clause, hence, going to spend an extra year at home.

A closer look at this post, you would realize OP just merged two different stories.

This is bad


We need to catch them young

It's a Conspiracy to pull the Boy down. He is a Prodigee and not a Fulani Herdsman's son.
