Friendship is a very powerful and good thing if you are with the right person. There was a very close friend of mine who I met on my first day at school he help me with some notes and textbook so that we go along with each other because I was left behind. From there we became very close friends. We do everything together, we never misses lectures.
One day during school hours he told me he want to contest for a vice president in our faculty.
first thing that came to my mind was where will he start from because he was the smallest in our department, but due to his qualifications I know that he can do it, I keep encouraging him till the day of elections trusting and hoping God that he will surely win we both have faith.
Like joke, like play he became the vice president in our faculty that year during our 200 level. One faithful day he told me he want to context for SUG president (student union government) I was imaging how can a small boy like him pursue a dream like this, small but mighty I continue to encourage him when the time comes he contest for it.
My earnest prayers was that let him win and let his dream of becoming the president come into reality. The form was out with the sum of #45,000 he struggle and he was able to rise the money and buy the form, do posters.
Finally the day of elections come I was not be able to sleep that day, wondering if my friend could win the election but my hope and my faith he will surely won. The time reach for election everything was going well all his candidate's came fully ready, the inec counts the votes he was the highest among the Three of them that context, he was declare and announced as the winner.
My fellow students called me and tell me my friend has won I don't know where tears comes down from my eyes, tears of joy and happiness, I was the happiest girl in the world that day.
He now serve as the SUG president now. We return all the glory and adorations to the lord for the election was successful. Many people give up in life because of lack of encouragement, support from the family, lack of assistance, but my friend never give up till his dream was accomplish.
