jidobaba: Nah . . . even unemployed grads have something to thank God for. They made it through school. Getting a job is just the next phase. This thread is not strictly about celebrating success, just saying thanks to people who have impacted you positively one way or another. |

Thanks to papa for telling my teachers not to respect my brilliance but to flog the hell out of me to instill discipline. Thanks to mama for quitting her job to give me the extra supervision I needed to be disciplined. Thanks again to papa for keeping his promise of giving me one bottle of chilled coca cola each time I came first -- That was all he could afford but it worked wonders and I never missed it. Thanks to God for it all. |

I thot you werent my dad then. My mum . . . for taking all those breaks during long vacation to teach me maths, taking me out of public school so i could be a better student, for paying my GRE fee even when you had nothing on you. Its time to reap the fruits of your labour mom! thanks for being a fighter, a rock, my mentor and good friend! and thanks for those medical books at home too, they are the only reason i decided to read science instead of art afterall. Mr. Anyanwu . . . my lesson teacher who ensured i finished my entire SSCE math and physics syllabus by the beginning of SS2.

All Praise is due to Allah, for to Him belongs the keys to all the treasures of the heavens and the earth! To my Dad, who was my study partner throughout primary and secondary school, and ensured I never came second position! To my Dad, who told me on getting admitted to Ife " I finished from Ife in 1971 with a 2nd Class Upper, so if you go to Ife, and get a 2nd Class Upper, you have not done anything new!" and hence I kept a CGPA above 4.5 from beginning to finish! To my mum who gave up juicy medical jobs abroad and chose to stay in Naija with us, you are the world greatest mum, and made all the difference! To my 6 friends in Ife who we all made 1st Class together, thanks for the support and friendship To Deolu Akinyemi who first interviewed me on campus for P&G and chose me out of 500 students, I salute your courage despite our religious differences, and my being dressed up in a Nigerian traditional outfit To Seyi Adeyemo, my manager @ P&G, you always said, "nothing is impossible, just tell me what you need to get it done!" Ko ma lo bee! To my cousins- ASOB & MOB, who motivated me to go for my MSC,and facilitated it all the way, you guys are great! And for my cuurent mentors, Marshal & Kola, you guys rock! |

Allah, I thank you. |

I thank the Almighty God who made it possible for me to still be alive and get the work. Secondly, i thank my dear friend who showed me the advert and we applied together thou God had other plans for her because she was not taken. Thirdly, i want to thank my mum who encouraged me to submit the application by post irrespective of the fact that the application expired that day i posted it because it wasn't on-line. I also want to thank my dear friends and my siblings for being so supportive of me and once again God almighty. |

To God for guiding and protecting me right from childhood to this moment. To my parents for sending me to school. To my Lieutenant friend for bringing me back on track at a time I lacked priority in life. To my university lecturers for insisting on academic competency rather than cutting corners during my under-graduate days, cos it now pay's To my present boss for giving me a Job upon the completion of my NYSC. To my son for praying to me unknowingly. |

To a best friend, mother, sister and convidant (MY LOVELY MAMA) though you are no more but i say a BIG THAN YOU. you thought me to be focused, hardworking and very determined. May your soul continue to rest in peace. To my sibblings and "few" true friends. i love and appreciate you all. To those clients who have stood like families, God bless you all To those haters who have doubted me , without your hatred i wouldnt have been this successful (still aiming for GREATER THINGS). To those numerous authors who have made me know there is always hope and room for improvement, i bought your books for less than $10 dollars but gained what money can never buy. To God Almighty, even if i say a billion Alhamdulilahi, it can never translate to how much i appreciate what YOU have done in my life, And to everyone out there, I LOVE YOU ALL |
