I couldn't even afford the ₦3,000 needed for the purchase of record file, let alone pay the ₦45,000 acceptance fee. I was about giving up, but your words struck me like a thunderbolt. Beating your right hand on your chest, you said...
"Emmanuel, as long as I still have the breath of God in my nostrils, I have vowed to God that you'll graduate from this same UNIBEN. Mark my words, na me talk am!"
"You sold your golden ornaments and Wrappers to train me.
"Momma you kept to your words!"
