This below, is the best email I have ever received in my life:

Two weeks before this email, I had had to go through the final test in the application process.

At that time I was at home while my classmates sat for the second semester examination I had prepared so much for; I couldn’t sit for it because my Dad couldn’t afford to pay my school fees - I felt very depressed and devastated.

However, doing what ever it takes to receive that email was on my mind.

I borrowed a friends laptop, locked my self indoors and worked my ass off trying to do something I had never done before, trying to deliver the last requirement to receiving that email: creating a website from scratch.

It was really tough for me, even as malaria chose to strike at that period. But I was determined to receiving that email—my fuel was:
‘Being a software developer is what I really want to become’ and
‘Being a software developer will enable to be a scholarship giver’—so I kept pushing.

Fast forward to now:

Dear Nairalanders, I worked so hard to receive this email. It is a dream come through. And as I’ve mentioned above, I am very passionate about software engineering.
It is 80% guaranteed that after this 12 months programme I will be employed as a junior developer and hell no would I ever miss another examination because of school fees.

However, I do not have a laptop to participate in this programme, which is very very important.

Please, I need you to invest in me. I cannot afford a laptop now and my parents can’t either. I need your help to having a better future, I need your help to becoming the software developer I’ve dreamt of becoming.

And my phone number is 0812.704.8114

Thank you.

Please invest in me.

Dear God, my live is in your hands.
