A first-generation student, Chidi needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a master's in public health.
🇳🇬 Nigeria1,082 views
Chidi is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a master's in public health at the Gwagwalada Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $500.
The registrar has said Chidi can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Chidi has a distinction average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Chidi would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Chidi isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the the Gwagwalada Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $500 goes:
• Final term tuition: $440
• Exam and lab fees: $25
• Textbooks and materials: $35
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope things get better soon, Yakubu. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 8 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this, Yakubu. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I'll check back for the next update
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Saket.
Good luck. Looking forward to the next update. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Thinking of you, Yakubu. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
thinking of you and your family. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Thinking of Gwagwalada.
