I am an As and I am getting married to an As. I love this girl so much that I am moving forward to marry her.

We have done our introduction and our traditional marriage is next month. I know the complications of an As marrying As in the issues of children they might give birth to. But I have no choice. I want to marry the love of my life.

Selfishness will not allow you to make heaven. You have no concern about your unborn children. Selfishness will not allow you to make heaven.

My name is Uche a 100Level supposed medicine and surgery student of a Nigerian University, I used to be very brilliant and that was what instigated me to apply for Medicine and Surgery after acquiring an aggregate score of 270 in both JAMB and POST-UTME Examinations, I was then admitted a years ago into a university.

I am the only child of my parents, they have spent so much on me just to make sure I become a doctor, dad had to sell one of his plots of land to pay for my registration fees, purchase a brand new laptop, a phone and clothes for me and all my needs, Mum who has no job since she was sacked by the state government will always try to send the little that will pass through her, when I think of the way she announced to her friends when I gained admission to study Medicine it brings tears from my eyes.

It will be an injustice on me to be blamed or for me to blame myself, I know the effort I have also made, I have always taken my studies serious, I never missed any lecture, I neither miss assignments nor tests, I sit at the front of the class, I don't keep bad gangs, I have never attended a party, sometimes I do RTDB (Read Till Day Break), what is then my offense? why me?

At the end of my 100 level Second semester my CGP was reading 4.2 without a single carryover, I was very happy because I thought I had scaled through the danger zone.

The unexpected occurred when I logged into the school portal at the end of my Second Semester Examination to check my result, I cleared all the courses with A's and B's but a course was reading Carryover, I nearly fainted when I saw the result, it was a biology course I offered in second semester to me the course was the simplest of all. I did not inform my parents because I din not want to dishearten them.

The school resumed, so I went to my HOD and complained, she took me to the Exam office who searched thoroughly for my script and from what I saw it was obvious I failed, I scored 32% and was asked to change department, my HOD advised that I go to Biological Sciences, my eyes were filled with tears.

How do I tell my parents this, it only mean I have brought shame to them. I have remained in school since then crying from one angle to another I don't know whether to go home to my parents to inform them of the truth or keep telling them lies.

I need your sincere advice.

As heart breaking as your story might sound, you are not the first to be in a situation like this and you won't be the last.

I was in a similar situation about 20 years ago. I contemplated suicide and disappearance due to the shame I was going to face. In my immediate community I was the first to gain admission to study that course and every both in my hometown and neighborhood was already referring to me in the prefesional title.

However, someone I confided in (an uncle) made a comment and told me it could have been worse. What if I had died, that so people have died on their graduation day, some during NYSC, etc. He encouraged me to start all over if I didn't want to change course as suggested by the school authorities.

I had to summon the courage to tell my folks the truth and nothing but the truth.

I started over in a different school (a better school, l I must tell you) after taking jamb again, securing admission on merit. I lost 3 years but in retrospect I am always happy I took the bold step of sitting down with my folks and telling them what happened.

I studied my dream course and graduated over a decade ago with 2.1 from the University of Nigeria.

My advice: go to your parents and tell them what happened no matter how hard it might be and then discuss whatever step you want to take. But if I were you I'd study for and retake jamb and still go for your dream course, preferably in another school....

Ebenezer2O2O:
as in eh I was too frustrated and also inexperienced then.
Later left to UNIBEN where I smashed it
What did u study?

I studied my dream course at the University of Nigeria and came out with 2.1.
For privacy sake I can't disclose the actual course, unless we private chat.

Ebenezer2O2O:
mine too from university of uyo to University of Benin

University of Uyo became a land of frustration at the of the new millennium. But only the strong hearted made it.

Go and kee yaself if you want to. No one is stopping you.

SILVERLINES:
Effiong's name has been completely forgotten in the history of Biafra.

For many articles posted here and on other social media platforms late Colonel Effiong's name is nowhere among those who struggled for Biafra simply becos he wasn't from Igbo region. Only Ojukwu name they proclaimed.


May the soul of the late Colonel Effiong rest in perfect peace!

Which milk and honey?
La click la kaboom.

La click la electrocuted and blackout.

Nonsense.

Na wah oooo.

LA click la electrocuted and blackout

The Fulani part really got me rolling.

chiddyok:
Poor woman. Maybe it’s her meat or even your brother’s own that she sacrificed for you in this covid era that the little money we earn is not enough. But no. Let her go and rob Fulani for cow for your royal meatjesty. Fear God. You might have daughters some day, think about that next time she serves a whole you, almighty in-law one meat. Winch.

martineverest:
just 20 members.

Times 10 sessions in a day. Hunger and lack of the usual high profile lifestyle is killing some MOGs.

Inyikalum:
Atleast I have one. Do you?

It takes the presence of capacity to recognize its absence...

Should I break it down to you? I will have to start sending you invoice for this brushing up. But let me attend to important people first. I am coming back...

Stupid indeed. Diarrhea of the mouth de worry am.

SarkinYarki:
He is very Stupid for involving Trump ..

Time to cash out for pastors.

Inyikalum:
What's d use of d eyesight when u r still jst daft n stupid

Your sense of logic is a disgrace.

If you have nothing meaningful to say, don't waste the space; it's not by force to comment.

Inyikalum:
So ya entire life, u haven't heard d truth? Y z ya life d same

Inyikalum:
So u saying ppl go into robbery to pay their tithe n offering?? Were u born this daft or u grew into it

Being daft is better than being born blind and stupid.

Pity yourself for your lack of understanding a simple sentence.

SIONKPO1:
Boy,who told that pastors forces their congregation into paying tithes
I pity you

senatordave1:
It is not about the quantity of one mans loot but the preponderance and frequency among the citizens in a region.more people in the ss and se engage in corrupt act than in other regions. Efcc and icpc records shows that ss and se tops

Deliberately lopsided and unreliable records.
What about this record

ekensi01:
You know what is paining me?

People paying their offering and tithes has never come to borrow money from you guys to do so.

Why is someone else problem disturbing you?

But when they engage in all manner of criminal activities like stealing, corruption, yahoo yahoo, etc just to meet up tithe and offering obligations, you won't see the connection. It's the same you that will condemn them and burn them because of robbery.

If they spent a quarter of the time they employ in defrauding people in the name of tithe and offering, in speaking the truth, Nigeria would have become a better place.

BeLookingIDIOT:
Why limit it to 2015
Well 117 million cases says infinitely more of the character of a region than one man or a couple of them.
Aren't you the ones complaining that they occupy most of the top positions.So it's expected you'll have more of their cases.

If you actually read that report you wouldn't have asked that question. Don't tell me you too lack the stamina to read, like the man in Aso rock. So, help yourself and go back to read the post.

By the way, the logic some of you employ in your desperate bid to justify bad governance is unfortunate. Imagine the reasoning in your post. Little wonder you guys are only good at borrowing, no imaginative approach to economic activity apart from borrowing. Na wah o.

You people think you are punishing a certain section of the country, but you are partaking in the result of your deliberate misrule. The evil that men do lives with them and after.

BeLookingIDIOT:
Is it Abacha that accounts for the over 100 million yearly cases in Nigeria

Who accounts for them? When one man's corrupt act can counterbalance five thousand other cases. Folashade Oké, Maina, grasscutter, etc. Since 2015 tell me any one that has stolen more money than people from the core north. I don't want to talk about the billions being looted Covid-19 palliatives and billions of dollars borrowed and looted.

Okay. Revisionists are at it again, even when we are still receiving posthumous allowee from Abacha several decades after death.

It shall not be well with revisionists and twisters of facts.

sageb:
you were a tuskite. Which set were you in?

2001/2002.
Did a diploma in international relations before then.

gbagyiza:
You see reason many people prefer to school oversea than here in Nigeria. How can a school offered admission to a student n when the student is about graduating, the school claimed that the admission has issue. If it was questionable, why noticing it late not earlier? It means something is wrong with our system here. Recently the same university informed some of its students to go n apply for change of course after they were offered admission n most of them had already done their registration. Which nonsense is this? We r not serious here in Nigeria.

It was so terrible at the University of Uyo between 2000 and 2004 that 1/3 of the students became ghost students who had lost their admission and had no business being within the school, but remained there out of frustration and fear of "what people would say".

Brand new?

Exactly! 30 is a music age.
