Area boys told him to share his money with them.

The area boys took him to police station because he refused.

Then the police detained him without any investigation.

Unfortunately you fell short of your dreams of being a doc

"We were at the Magistrate Court of Lagos, Apapa Magisterial District, today the 9th day of April, 2025 to ascertain the facts and circumstances that led to the arrest, detention and subsequent remand of Alabi Quadri at the Minimum Security Custodial Centre, Kirikiri, Apapa, Lagos."

"After spending several hours at the court, I was accompanied by a colleague from our law firm, Alabi’s mother and other family members and relatives to visit Alabi at the custodial centre. Also in attendance was the social activist who brought the case to public attention."

"Given the interest expressed by members of the public, it is necessary to make this preliminary statement."

"We can confirm that Alabi has been in detention since January."

"He was abducted by ‘Area Boys’ close to his home while returning from work."

"According to Alabi and his mother, his painful walk to prison can be attributed to the prolonged malice nursed by some self-acclaimed area boys of his locality who felt entitled to a share of the unexpected fortune that came Alabi’s way when he halted and stood in front of the convoy of the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. PeterObi during the last electioneering campaign. "

"Since he failed to properly “settle” some people, it has been one attack to another."

"After abducting Alabi, the same area boys who have been threatening to deal with him for not sharing the money he was gifted dragged him to the Amukoko Police Station (Pako Police Station) where he was detained."

"The area boys initially claimed that Alabi was one of the young men who has been involved in street fights."

"However, it came as a rude shock when the Police took him before a Magistrate along with four other individuals who are complete strangers to him, alleging that he conspired with them to commit “Armed Robbery” with cutlasses."

"The Police in the charge sheet alleged that the alleged two victims were robed of money and four mobile phones."

"The value of both the physical cash and four phones is N579,000 only."

"I spent about two hours interviewing Alabi about the veracity of the charges brought by the police. Speaking objectively, we all left Kirikiri with a strong conviction that this gentleman is just another victim of Nigeria’s criminal justice system."

"The last point that we want to state on the record is that Alabi is a Minor. He is less than 18 years."

"Currently, Alabi has appeared before the Magistrate on three occasions."

"The court remanded him along with the four strange individuals who are all adults at the custodial centre pending Legal Advice by the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP)."

"We shall provide additional information and the available legal options subsequently. Suffice it to say that we will do all that is legally permissible to secure Alabi’s freedom."

"Thank you for your kind attention."

Yet there were people who didn't score as high as she did yet they got to study medicine in these same schools.

The corrupt system killing dreams and desires everyday.

I pray God help her find a way to connect with her truest desires.

Miss Isioma Nwosu, the overall best student of Lagos State University (LASU) for the 2023/2024 academic session, says she thought she had failed in life when she could not secure admission to study medicine and surgery.

Nwosu, who graduated with a cumulative grade point average of 4.93 from the department of biochemistry, made this known in her valedictory speech at the 28th convocation ceremony of LAS[/b]U.

LASU awarded diplomas, degrees and certificates at the event which took place at its main campus in Ojo.

[b]Nwosu said that she had never heard of biochemistry until LASU offered her admission to the course.

“In 2019, after graduating as the valedictorian of my secondary school, I faced a setback and had to re-write UTME.

“A valedictorian writing UTME again? It was a bitter pill to swallow. My dream was to study medicine and surgery at the University of Ibadan.

“I fell just two points below the cut-off mark. The news of my repeat spread like a wildfire in my secondary school.

“I thought I had failed in life,” she said.

Nwosu said that she equally applied for medicine and surgery at LASU but was offered biochemistry.

“This time, I made LASU my first choice and, again, aiming for medicine and surgery.
”My heart broke the second time,” she said.

She said that she could not embrace the course in her first year. She said that some of her lecturers and friends, however, encouraged her to put in her best.

Nwosu advised students to study hard and be confident.

She also advised her fellow graduands to believe in themselves regardless of their grades.

“You completed this phase. You are resilient, capable and prepared for the future. The world is waiting for your greatness and manifestation.

“To everyone listening, never be afraid of having big dreams, your dreams are the seeds of greatness.

“Additionally, surround yourself with friends with values and equal visions and ambitions,” she said.

Earlier, the Vice-Chancellor of LASU, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, charged the graduating students to ‘write their stories the way they want it to be told’.

She said the university was proud to confer diplomas and degrees on a total of 11,917 students who had been found worthy by the senate of the university.

“They have demonstrated excellence in both character and learning and are therefore worthy of being awarded the certificate of this prestigious university.

“The ultimate goal is to use your knowledge and skill to drive meaningful change wherever you find yourselves,” she told the graduating students.
