during my primary school days we had no
chairs in the class no windows no doors
behind the classroom we’re all messed up
with equipment garbage and the smell of
urine drug addicts and criminals would
use our classroom as meeting points
academically with zero standard since we
really had to just in a month he just
would come five times or less and then
disappears it would just show up and
then left for their personal businesses
would give room for playing and games
throughout the day my classmate would
come to school drop their bags and start
roaming the street as a result only few
Falls made it to secondary level and the
rest dropped out during this time my dad
never gave me and my younger brother the
freedom to mingle with others in the
environment because they were worried
about my other brother who was getting
involved in drugs my secondary school
level was a bit better I was lucky
enough to be enrolled by my parents in
the private secondary school I have
always told my dad I want to travel
abroad but then he insisted that he
would do everything to see me through
school to the highest level of my choice
unfortunately when I finished from
secondary school I was unable to get
admission into the higher institution
and then I began to walk menial jobs so
I could register for the Nestea a
examination and be able to get admission
two years later I got admission into the
Polytechnic where I was studying
Electrical Engineering
during this time my dad was already
fallen sick I think was getting worse
every day
when I come back home over the weekend I
my dad sees me he’d begun to cry and
then he would tell me hit sorry for
disappointing me I now decided not to
see him whenever I come for the weekend
so he doesn’t cry or sofa later on my
dad invited my brothers and I and we all
sat around him in the living room and
yeah he began to share properties or
responsibilities and my ADA brother
being the others he got the Leon shares
and yet all of our responsibilities was
put on me I nobody’s booted him I
promise to do as he has said from the
looks in his eyes I knew something big
was about to happen
and a few weeks later he died it was a
very big shock to my family and it badly
affected my mom and it was very
difficult for me to cope with it
going through school right managed and
when I was through with my National
Diploma electrical engineering I was
supposed to go for a 1-year industrial
training and if I walk under my field of
study over this one year I wouldn’t get
paid I won’t work for free my mom had
been a successful businesswoman but over
these years that my dad who has been
sick she has virtually spent everything
she had and after the death of my mom my
dad have business crumbled
she resulted in selling food on the side
of the road looking at the situation of
my family it was impossible for me
walking under my field of study not
getting paid to go back to school and
complete my education that was how I
started looking for other jobs so I
could end money as much as I can
to further my education I start looking
for job and the first job interview I
got was to work as a waiter and an
exclusive bar on my way to the interview
on my bicycle I had an accident and I
broke my eyes but yet after the first
aid treatment I insisted that even I was
late I want to go on getting to the
interview they saw stains of blood on my
shed I want the oxen I explained it was
accident to start work the next day as a
waiter and after three days they made me
the cashier and a few months later I
became the manager of the place since we
are really looking up for me
but alas it was just the calm before the
storm
on that day of 28 January 2012 Khan
estate had the large bomb being attack
the Boko Haram where hundreds of people
lost their life hundreds injured and
later on other attacks were going on
these two cost on our way that we never
believed that this would get to Colonel
actually it has been happening other
states around the northern region of
Nigeria who never thought it would get
to kind of state and people left Colonel
if you flee my boss himself he close
down the business idea and I love this
opportunity for my family
we stayed back not because we don’t want
to leave kind of state but because we
had no money to the kid and then I went
back searching for jobs I got a job as a
barman my boss it was really a kind
person he gave me the opportunity to do
my small-scale of business where I
bought fashionable clothes and I stood
to customers my colleagues and sometimes
even my boss he bought from me as well
at that time I see myself as a man of
the people because I was so friendly to
customers so accommodating on a very
good entertainer customers would prefer
that I served them unda was not a
quitter
and then a man after building his own
hotel he came close to me I said if you
follow me to my new hotel I’m gonna pay
you whatever this man is paying I’m
gonna pay double
I was only a grazing opportunity like I
said things was about to change
I left to the new hotel where I walked
as if I might as well and I was changing
should shift with a colleague of mine I
walked in two hours a day it was a busy
place because if a new hotel I didn’t
have that time to do my other businesses
like you I did in my former workplace so
I suggested to my manager to give me the
chance to supply them wine since I have
contact of where I could get in a
discounted price and sell to them and
still get little Commission for me
I never knew my colleague who might
switch shift with has been manipulating
the sales book and have been taken away
with 10,000 their everyday and this has
been going on for six months and when it
was discovered my colleague flee with
what he made from the seeds of that day
and I got arrested for it I got arrested
for a crime I never knew about it I
spent three weeks in jail my money with
which I supplied them the wines was
confiscated to compensate the director
of the hotel and after going through my
own sales book and there was nothing
incriminating evidence that was found
then I was released but this time I was
so devastated to hope this I Oxford my
money and the never give my money to me
then I resigned I was thinking out I was
having lots of thoughts inside of me is
it better that I followed the part my
other friends to maybe go for money
ritual or go for drop pushing or I’m
robbing but I couldn’t be any of this I
kept pushing I kept working hard I
resulted in driving took two in a drug
we call it taken a pair which I had to
rent it
I’m paid 2,500 everyday and I barely
made three thousand sometimes I don’t
even make two five it was really a step
back for me
I had no option to go back to my boss
and apologize to him and I did luckily
he accepted me the window I was getting
a better salary now than driving took
two yet I wasn’t happy inside of me
and I decided to help my chances are
broad I told my mom about it she bought
the idea and got a legend who child does
750,000 year to get me to Europe
combined my savings and my mom we
couldn’t even make half of the money I
had to beg for friends and my mom had to
delay my trip for another three months
so could be able to save up to afford
the amount and when we did the idea is
duped us and when we stopped pressing
charges he compensated us with a tourist
visa to UE the one-month tourist visa
I’m promised to be paying the rest in
instrumental I had no option happy it
like that and then I found myself in
ways in a one room of 12
the cooling system was so bad I had no
money on me
just kidding no no pocket money on me I
had to wash the clothes of my room later
and he gave me leftover food and some
give me 5 grams 10 grams for washing
your cool towel how I ate despite all
this of the sending series having
interviewed promises yet my nationality
as energy ron was an impediment for me i
when I asked why Nigeria had so much bad
reputation in way I was so ashamed to be
in a dream but then I promised myself
that if I get a job in UAE I want to
prove to my company and to the rest all
the people to give them the reason why
they should employ or denied run
to give them the reason what they should
know that there are other goodness Oslo
three weeks past I didn’t get a job and
then I got a look I’ve got a call from
circle to work as a cleaner I got the
job
I finished my project it took eight days
to get my off a letter and that it is to
me to have life forever and later I got
the offer later and our stocks to exit
to wait for my visa for three weeks but
my visa came in two weeks but during
these two weeks I didn’t have the
courage to go to can where I grew up
because I will be ridiculed they could
simply say this guy has been deported
because they don’t know the system of us
but then I stayed in Legos with my uncle
that was how I was unable to see my mom
until her death she was getting sick and
was getting worse by the day I was
unable to see her and while I was in
Legos I didn’t even have the hope for my
flight to get back to you a Prosecco
provided my flight ticket to come back
to you so I started working here as a
cleaner and today I’m walking on circle
NYU ad as an athletic as a recreational
assistant in athletic department so in
every downside of my life in every that
moment I persevered and I continue to
work hard now
into you today this as a result of my
hard work whatever I have today so far
because I keep pushing I had hope so I
tell people provided you are living on
breathing she remain hopeful because it
can always get better and I hope to
continue and further my education thank
you
