A 30-year-old bricklayer who recently bagged first class from the Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta, Ogun state, (FUNAAB), has disclosed that the institution did not celebrate him for the feat.
The young man identified as Toyinbo Hezekiah graduated with a CGPA OF 4.5 in Animal Breeding and Genetics, and he combined his studies with his work as a labourer and okada rider.
He recently revealed that he performed well in his 100 and 200 levels but made a deliberate decision to improve and he was able to get distinction in his final year.
Hezekiah said after he was announced as a first class graduate, all that happened was getting a handshake from professors during the convocation as there was no special recognition.
He said; “It was just a standard handshake with professors during the convocation. However, I didn’t feel satisfied with the recognition. This is another reason why many undergraduates fail to fully dedicate themselves to academics.
They often compare themselves to others and believe that people they know are more accomplished. This perception leads to laziness among many young people. Unfortunately, those who accuse us of laziness are the same people who instilled this behaviour in us.”
