I have learnt long ago never to be discouraged by a denial. We humans are largely myopic, we cry over delays and denials but God sees the entire picture. The Google brothers once attempted to sell Google to Yahoo at $1 million. But when they got to present at Yahoo they left disappointed as Yahoo mgt was not interested. Today Google has outpaced yahoo. Some even say Google has kicked Yahoo into oblivion. When Stanford jnr died, his father wanted to honour him with a memorial building at Harvard university but he was denied. That drove him to establish the Leeland Stanford Junior University AKA Stanford University founded on entrepreneurship education. (Disclaimer: there's a lot of controversy on this story.) Today Stanford, though hundreds of years younger is of equal prestige as Harvard. It's alumni community is wealthier than many nations of the earth and the second highest producer of billionaires in the world. Second only to Harvard. It's not an Ivy league but has surpassed most ivy leagues - Yale, Cornell, Princeton etc. I know people who were tormented after relationship breakups. Today, they cringe at the thought that they could have ended up with those persons. While I refuse to say Covenant was a lesser door, studying in the UK is definitely an higher door. People should always learn to accept denials in hope of something better. If you did your best and were denied then something better is coming! 355 Likes 43 Shares |

All I can say is that, you can still make it in Nigerian universities. Majority of Nigerian lectures did not study in UK or America. Find all Nigerian university on https://naijaschools.com.ng/ |

And so? If na America now, I for agree with her sentiment small. Anybody can get a First Class in the UK including many students currently enrolled at covenant. If ini umotong can get a first-class in economics while playing professional football, anybody can get it. So madam, your daughter is not special. She is just not what covenant needed at that point in time. 20 Likes 3 Shares |

RTSC:What a bad belly! Pls did you graduate with a first class? Some of you haven't even seen the 4 walls of a university yet you try to downgrade someone's achievement.  Being able to graduate at all is no beans, especially if you didn't attend a school where you can do copy and paste... First class is never a cheap thing, hence the term first class! It takes so much consistency and the error range is so slim. Even in a plane, you pay triple the amount to be in first class, talk less of graduating with first class at a university. 78 Likes 7 Shares |

At least in UK we can be sure the lady did not get her first class for sleeping with Nigerian lecturers. People forget the extra motivation to succeed people have when you leave all family and friends behind to go succeed in another country. Your mentality has to change as you are on your own. You either buckle up or fall behind. Nobody to help you in any way. Unless you have earned the right to govt assistance over time. 25 Likes 3 Shares |
