MORE SUCCESS STORIES

About four years ago, I enrolled Suliat at Osun State University, Okuku Campus, to study Banking and Finance. Against all odds, she has made everyone proud with her remarkable achievement, graduating with an impressive 4.4/5.0 CGPA.

This is not only a proud moment for her, but also for me personally. Today, she has joined the growing league of my success stories as a mentor, guardian, and counsellor.

Over the years, I have been blessed with tens of direct and indirect mentees who, through our professional guidance and support, have attained academic success in their various pursuits. Alhamdulillah.

LETTER TO UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Dear Students,

Kindly find below job requirements for graduate trainees:

1. Shell - 2:1 and above
2. Total- 2:1 and above
3. Exxon Mobil- 2:1 and above
4. SEPLAT- 2:1 and above
5. OANDO- 2:1 and above
6. NNPCL- 2:1 and above
7. PwC- 2:1 and above
8. Deloitte- 2:1 and above
9. KPMG- 2:1 and above (though they are now more liberal)
10. FIRS- 2:1 and above

These are just few ones but almost all big name and competitive companies, organizations and agencies require that you must have at least a Second Class Upper degree to stand a chance of applying to work with them. This is for those who want to use their certificates in the corporate world.

There are people going round with the notion that good grade doesn’t matter because “they know a 3rd class working in America”. Dont listen to them. I have interacted and currently interacting with hundreds of graduates everyday and I can tell you for free that class of degree is a major game changer.

Higher degrees dont mean that one is more intelligent than those with lower. It means one is more focused, dedicated, committed and attentive to detail, qualities organizations are looking for in their prospects.

You are still in school and with your fate mostly in your hands. Try as much as you can to have a good grade. I am just telling you because I care. Not everyone will get for sure but try and be part of those who will get.

This is a message for UNDERGRADUATE students not GRADUATES so someone from 100 TLs away will not feel offended and start shouting MOCKERY or that Ingawa doesn’t believe in Allah. I will do a stand alone letter to the graduates later.

Yours,
MS Ingawa

A: Are you okay?
I mean, are you good?
B: No, I am not okay, and I can't say I'm not okay.
A: Oh no, it's okay not to be okay. I mean common you're human with life challenges so it's okay to feel that way.
