I Wept When I Was Denied Visa, But Today I'm Best Graduating Student In Nigeria

Her name is Boluwatife Oyekan, she wanted to leave Nigeria and seek for a better life elsewhere but efforts in that regards failed as she was denied a Canadian Visa. About 5 years down the line, Boluwatife emerged the best graduating student of Caleb University, Lagos.

For Boluwatife Oyekan, achieving a first class grade is the fruit of a lot of sacrifice and self-denial:
