Four or Five Years later and sometimes Seven years later and you finally finish your academic journey, with so much of sweat pain and suffering going through the garden of knowledge which is The University , and you finally go through all that the garden holds. meeting alot of people both great and small and exploring all that it has to offer.
You'd have to go to class early, meet deadlines and even get to take urgent test in most cases and submit so work at very tight schedules, it's a lot of stress.
But going through this journey helps shapes a person as an adult and you get to acquire new set skills that you have to make time researching about.
You get to meet up with early morning classes, going to school under the hot sun and under the cold rain to make sure that you're fit and ready to be certified by the school and approved of your hard work and rewarded with a Certificate afterwards.
it really takes a toll on a studying individual and making you think about it after all the stress involved in going to school in Nigeria.
Most people get into the Garden of Knowledge and most time never get to finish there Journey (Graduate) due to all the underlying factors attached with attending a Nigerian University, most especially the Federal Government backed Universities.
students get to experience strikes that could drag on for months and even till years before finally letting school come back to section. and it is so depressing.
Life happens and a lot of people never get lucky or get the chance to graduate the school or even get there certificate issued to them.
Most errors happen and most students , get to graduate away from there pers or graduate a long time later than there pers and be left out on the wonderful Convocation Ceremony that gets to take place every new yearly academic section.
So when a student finally graduates after an academic journey it's only fair and beautiful to see that pictures are taken and family and friends are gathered to there presence, some give presents and others go all out to organize mini party to invite family and friends to celebrate with them on such a wonderful wins on a successful academic journey.
So raise your toast to all Nigerian student who are able to graduate after a lot of effort , time, money and strength, sweat and tears invested in trying so hard to become a Nigerian graduate and growing in every was despite the troubles and obstacles attached with attending a Nigerian University and the hurdles faced before you finally graduate the University.
Wearing this gown is prove of been a warrior and scaling all the hurdles accompanied with the struggles and pains a young adult face, the missed opportunities.
yes Missed opportunities , because as a Nigerian student you need money for alot of things, but as a full time student getting a job is not an option. no remote jobs and you'd have to pick one priority against one, so Cheers to all Nigerian students graduated and the ones that are yet to.
