How can you be so sure....did you graduate with a first-class or as the best student in your school or faculty if you did not then stop assuming

Continue fooling yourself and tell me if all your lecturers where first class grads in a country where connection comes first.

Some people who grew up with their parents don't have it as good as you do, some will actually exchange place with you. Thank God for what you have...

Congrats. But any point talking about your mum?

If the void she is supposed to fill in your life is still there, go and look for her to get answers and possibly reconnect with her.

This life is too short.

Don't mind her. Most ladies have the mindset that women are way more compassionate than men and women are angels that could do no wrong.

A mother can never and I mean never derive joy at the expense of abandoning her children when they are young. The boy can imagine what callous mother his mother is and how she is fairing. Congrats to you Ayooluwa and whenever you see or meet your mom in future, call her a looser!

My Mother Left My Father, My Brother And I - Uniuyo's Best Graduating Student

The best graduating student shares how growing up without the warmth of a mother can be so depressing for a child of a two year old or three.

Ayooluwa Babalola found himself in a situation where he had to cope daily in the arms of his extended family members. Although they were nice, their affection could not fill up the gap of a mother's love for her own child. His childhood perhaps became that of an incomplete world.

In his words "l think what actually stood out in my childhood is that I spent a whole lot of my it living with my uncle's family. From the age of two or three, my dad took me and my brother to Abeokuta to stay with my uncle.

"I remember my dad used to visit often, and during long holidays He would take us home. I don't remember my biological mom ever visiting. She never did. Literally, l was raised by my aunt whom I took as a mom and my uncle as a dad.

"I don't remember the first time I heard the story of my mom's separation from my dad, but I was told somehow somewhere sometime in the past. A better way to put it is that she left my dad, my brother and me. My dad made it clear that it was for our (my bro and I) good that they weren't together. So I had questions as a child, what happened to her, why did she have to leave? So my childhood psyche was a little messed up.

“My uncle’s family were very nice people. They raised me well, taught me Christian values and sorts. I was not maltreated or anything of sort. My mum (aunt) raised me like her own son. Their children became like sisters to me…I regarded them as my sisters. In fact till now, I find it difficult to refer to them as cousins.

“In school when my mates asked about my parents (especially about my mom) I get confused, like who exactly should I talk about, my biological mom or my mum (aunt)? Well, I usually just ward off those questions and sometimes I would lie, but I don’t really recall what I would say.

“Yes at my uncle’s home there were good moments and bad ones. Times when I cried and wished things were a little different. You know when you are staying with people you know are not your immediate family, you begin to interpret so many actions that doesn’t go well with you. And the devil wouldn’t make it easy.

“I really do appreciate all my uncle’s family did. They were and still have been a blessing to me. However, when I was a child I wished my parents had not separated, not because my uncle’s family were not good people, but l guess its human psychology that when u know something isn’t yours, you can’t feel at home. I think I had the best case scenario of living with Uncles.”

Regardless of his parents separation, it did not deter Ayo from dreaming of a great future. He did believe after rain comes sun. His incomparable faith in God and determined spirit must have served him a rolling stroll in which his passion for living outstandingly drove on.

Being the best graduating student in an institution that existed in a ‘strange’ land where he had to learn the dialect while coping with the environment as a preacher’s kid, must have served him a life sentence of confusion.

But as it is said “tough times don’t last but tough people do”, Ayo stood out despite the odds. He went on occupying sensitive positions in church and this must have boosted his self esteem in a way.

He actually gave Voice Your Stories Team an highlight of his journey to being the first class citizen in University of Uyo.

“I wrote jamb twice. The first time l tried gaining admission with a score of 230 but was turned down. The second time l scored 198 in jamb and 264 in post utme. Thank God l finally had admission to study Economics in University of Uyo, this was a dream come true.

“While in school, l had a target of becoming the best graduating student in the Economics department. I wrote the dream down of making a first class with 4.75.

“However my dream was threatened when l was told that my predecessors who were classified with first class honours had less than 4.75. They said l was embarking on a mission impossible.

“In the midst of the discouragement, l was still steadfast that l will still make the dream a reality.

Your logic is quite laughable.

Does it take a first class to see the rot your country has falling into?

It is the still you and your cohorts that will come on bbnaija threads crying on why best graduating students receive yams and Bbnaija winners receive cars and millions.

So, saying his degree will give him a better life outside Nigeria is wrong?

No wonder able bodied working-class men and women who are/were earning well are fleeing the country.

Is something like ASUU strike supposed to even happen in a country as rich as Nigeria after over 50 years of independence?

You are suffering from Stockholm syndrome and you don't know.

Students are pushed through to graduation despite having failed multiple required classes. How? They take joke summer school classes or are given credit for classes like English by doing so-called "community service". Our high school exit exam is admittedly (by the state board of education) an 8th grade level exam.

For a mother to abandon a child, it can be very painful. She's an all weather pillar to depend on emotional and her dedication to you is total. She'll happily take a bullet for you.

For instance, if it was the dad that abandoned him, his mum would not dump him with relations to look after.

Well, just take it as it is and move on Poo like this happens. It isn't your fault. (Read Isaiah 49:15, 1 Timothy 5:8

Lets assume he was 3 years when it happened and swallowed the story doesn't mean a grown ass niccur like you should.

Its rare for a woman to abandon her children.
I wish she will tell her own version too.

Aunty you mean your questionsss

Why don't you accept the fact that your assertion that the only chance first-class graduates have is to have a side hustle.....why can't you accept that saying this was dumb and shallow....

I guess u can advice your youngers ones to learn trade and handworks....at least they won't waste their years in schools...

Any graduate who jumps out with pass will begin to say that getting first class is worthless.....
