Don’t ever say that! A first class is a first class. It is an easy gateway to prestigious international masters with full scholarship. He can decide to do a JD (Law) or Medicine in US with full scholarship or just anything. US universities don’t limit you to a particular discipline if you want to venture out.

In fact, I am adding N100k for this excellent feat. Send me your account

Thank you very much, Sir. I have just received your generous and bountiful donation. I sincerely appreciate your kindness and support. Thank you once again, Sir. May God continue to bless and reward you abundantly.

So sorry about that, might be a glitch in the system.

You are really very kind and obviously have a better upbringing than that fellow who was things to shame you while hiding his own inadequacies in a faceless forum like this one.....
My point is YOU DON'TOWE HIM OR HIS ILKS ANY EXPLANATION FOR THIS SUCCESS

Thank you so much for your kind words. I sincerely appreciate them.

I believe everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I don't hold anything against anyone. If sharing my journey and providing clarification inspires confidence or encourages someone else to pursue excellence, then I'm more than happy to do so.

Thank you once again for your encouragement. It truly means a lot.

Men may not understand. Congratulations, Man. Dare to dream

I have a dream, and by God's grace, I'll come back someday to share its fulfillment as a testament to His goodness. Thank you so much for the encouragement.

toprealman:
Happy to assist you in any way possible. Feel free to reach out. Congratulations!

Thank you so much, kind Sir. I would leave you an email right away. Thank you once again.

Wow! Thank you so much, Sir. I'm genuinely overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity.

Your words of encouragement mean just as much to me as your support. Pursuing a fully funded master's degree abroad has always been my goal, and your confidence in what a first-class degree can open the door to has strengthened that belief even more.

I'm deeply grateful for your generosity. I'll send you my account details below. Thank you once again, and I pray God richly blesses and rewards your kindness.

Excellent!
I can't agree more with you .. .. I am also willing to jump in if there's a donation scheme after verification of his sterling performance as stated.

Thank you so much for your kind words and your willingness to support me. I'm truly humbled by your encouragement.

I completely agree that verification should come first. If you're comfortable with it, I can send you an email, and I'll gladly provide any information or documentation needed to verify my academic journey. After that, whatever decision you make, I'll respect and appreciate it.

Thank you once again for your generosity and encouragement.

Elon Musk loves brilliant people

Thank you so much, Elon Father. I'll hold you to your word. Evidence is one thing I know how to keep oo. 😄

TEYA:
YES kelechi50, OP you better follow that DAAD advice and not lean too much on that your aluminium fabrication idea, I hate it when a first class graduate ends up on the stupid "handwork" route.

Scholarship opportunities abroad have always been the goal. However, at that point, I had to make ends meet, so I took up whatever honest work came my way, including aluminium fabrication. Thank you so much.

TheStoriesOfMan:
Political science is not a course to read in a sane nation, because all humans are political in nature.

My cousin had first class in political science from a SW university, couldn't do anything with it till he japaaed. Now he's managing top firms in Eastern Europe.

If you like, allow praises from strangers validate your vision, but I'll advice you, take it or leave it:

Do your masters in international relations or financial administration.
Find a tech or agro skill to learn/practice.
If you have funds, japaa. If you don't start up a business.
Leverage on networks/connections, especially abroad.

The ball is in your court.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful advice. I truly appreciate you taking the time to share it.

I understand your concerns, especially considering your cousin's experience. I'm already planning to pursue a master's degree while building relevant skills alongside my academic journey.

If you don't mind, I'd really appreciate the opportunity to send you a private message. I would love to learn from your experience, and if you're willing, I would be grateful for any guidance or connections you think could help me as I plan the next phase of my career.

Thank you once again for your encouragement.

SixSeven:
What I like is that in today's world, I've noticed that content creation likes challenge games. This is the kind of challenge I want to see as content because the outcome is for his own good not just for views. I'm very happy for him and tempted to add my 2cents to his success because this are the people worth celebrating and encouraging. We have over the years celebrated mediocrity and crass, that's why the worst of us are making headlines. If OP has a donation scheme, after verification by the others I will not mind because someone like this is likely to pass the baton to another one. This is the kind of stuff I want to see on social media and Nairaland should feature more of this for our youth who get distracted with short term nonsense

Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. I'm truly humbled that you see value in the message behind my journey.

To be honest, I wouldn't mind the support at all. As you rightly pointed out, everything should be properly verified first. If, after that, anyone still feels led to support me, I would receive it with gratitude and put it to good use, especially towards my academic and professional aspirations.

More importantly, I hope this story encourages someone else to challenge themselves, stay disciplined, and believe that excellence still pays. Thank you once again for your generosity and encouragement.

P.s I would leave you an email cause I ain't certain if it isn't against the guidelines to drop phone numbers.

Holluwhakemmy:
Congratulations dear.

MSc in a bit. Thank you so much.

Dalohad:
Na that Generalpula own I dey interest. You sure say no be audio promise the guy give us.

Make we dey look.

No don't do that a General can't be caught giving fake promise. Lets keep out fingers crossed.

Dalohad:
Congratulations to you. You have done very well in your studies my brother, and have shown that your previous stint at the Federal Poly Bauchi was not a fluke.

On a lighter note, anyday you engage in active politics, I assure you that you will find dunderheads in APC trying to prove to you that the 'Olua Promise Asogh' that graduated from Federal Poly Bauchi is not the same with the 'Promise Asogh Olua' that finished from Unijos..

Buffoons like Arambambi the hungry hustler, who is currently trying to do the same Peter Obi as we speak, will muddle up everywhere with infantile propaganda.

They will accuse you of forgery and try to disqualify you from seeking political office, if you are unlucky.

So be ready..

Thank you so much, Sir. Regarding the issue of the name sequence, that was the result of an institutional reform, and there is a widely circulated internal memo to that effect. So, going forward, we will simply present the facts as they are. Thank you once again.

TONYE001:
Dear Sir,

Congratulations.

What you have done, and repeating what you have done, are not easy stunts.

I had a classmate who was also a DE student from a southern university. He finished with a First Class. Amongst us again, he graduated as the Best Graduating Student. Just that my course does not award grades, otherwise, he would have had another First Class.

You are exceptional. Please, maintain this, and grow even higher.

Your performance is enough momentum to project you into the international space. Pursue scholarship offers. Keep good (written) memories of your story. Perhaps, you may need these to write a memoir someday.

Please, all those that promised, it's time to redeem your promises.

Best wishes, Sir Promise.

I hold your words dear, kind Sir. Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. I hope to be back someday with even greater updates. Thank you once again.

Mathewrichard99:
Congrats Promise,

Am just very curious about the CGPA you came out with after that 300L fiasco in 6 courses out of 7.

Is it 4.70 or higher?

I nearly assumed you might find it very difficult to keep with first class after that episode.

I eventually graduated with a CGPA of 4.50. It's difficult to state my exact CGPA for the first semester of 300 Level because, for some reason, my department does not upload first-semester GPAs. However, by the end of the second semester of 300 Level, my CGPA stood at 4.64.

ravensckar:
Congratulations OP, many more success to follow.

However, just as a user rightly pointed out, first class doesn't mean shît in today's Nigeria. Unless you have a skill that is in demand. No let anybody whyne you sey you don arrive o.

You still have a long way to go.

And lastly, if your aim of opening this thread is to remind strangers to fulfill the financial promise they made to you 3 years ago, I'm afraid you didn't learn anything in the University.

Nobody can do for you, what you should do for yourself.

#Picks_tooth

Thank you so much. I would leave you with a reply I just left someone: "I hope they do too, but that wasn't the focal point for me today. It may have been then because it took me over a month to write this post, but what really stayed with me was the realization that you can have no idea what the future holds, yet a random comment from a stranger can inspire you to push yourself further. So, how about challenging yourself to do more? That challenge may become the driving force you need, but the opportunities it opens up for you could be worth far more than any cash reward."

And living with the mindset that nobody is coming to save me has always been a guiding principle for me. Thank you once again.

Stephen0mozzy:
Congratulations to you!

Don't mind the Nairalanders of Particular Concern who will throw shades at you. How can they understand the joy of setting a personal challenge and achieving it against all odds when they themselves have never challenged themselves nor attained anything.

Wishing you all the good will that disciplined study affords you, as you plot the way forward from here.
Cheers.

Their criticism means nothing to me; I see it as a driving force to do better. I once had a lecturer look me in the face and say, "You are never, ever going to graduate with a first-class degree." Look where we are now.

Thank you so much.

bigdammyj:
Reading.

Very inspiring story (worthy of emulation you have there young man. May The Lord blees your effort and The Universe continue to favor you.

NB: Try as much as you can for your name to be on a stable sequence.

Amen to your prayer, and thank you so much.

Regarding the name sequence, I have always used the Surname, First Name, Middle Name format, which is widely accepted. It wasn't until 2024 that my institution changed its official format to First Name, Middle Name, Surname. Since then, I have had to adopt that sequence for my institutional records.

Yxxx:
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Keep excelling in Jesus name. Amen.
I tap this excellence for my children.

God's grace is sufficient to go around, and it will definitely fall upon you and your children. Thank you so much.

Nicotinekills:
Congratulations.... But please be guided as not to think that First class from a Nigerian university equals success in life.

Try to identify a problem and start solving it in our society, that's the new thrend

Every successful person is someone who identified a problem and found a way to solve it. My education has never limited my ability to think outside the box; rather, it has provided me with the foundation to develop practical and effective solutions to the challenges in our society. Thank you so much.

Yoighaman:
Just seeing your message.

Congratulations! Nice one for sticking it out!

Please allow some time for proper investigation and verification.

Will revert.

Cheers.

Thank you so much, Sir. I am open to any investigation or verification and would be happy to cooperate fully. I will patiently await your findings. Thank you once again for inspiring me.

Those who made promises, made it during Buhari's tenure...since then, Petrol has gone up, house rent has gone up, Nepa bill has gone up, ... People are now selling Akara, Kulikuli and Roasted corn...I hope they will be able to fulfill their promises. Generalpula and co....over to you

I hope they do too, but that wasn't the focal point for me today. It may have been because it took me over a month to write this post, but what really stayed with me was the realization that you can have no idea what the future holds, yet a random comment from a stranger can inspire you to push yourself further.
