One semester away: help Chidi graduate from Epe Polytechnic
A first-generation student, Chidi needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an electrical engineering diploma.
🇳🇬 Lagos, NigeriaPosted Oct 1, 2026217 views
Chidi is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an electrical engineering diploma at Epe Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $550.
The registrar has said Chidi can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Chidi has a 3.8 average, and a professor 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 Epe Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $550 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $55
• Final term tuition: $450
• Textbooks and materials: $45
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
