Badagry
Kingsley is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Badagry Polytechnic, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $450. The registrar has said Kingsley can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Kingsley has a top-ten-percent 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 Kingsley would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Kingsley 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 Badagry Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $450 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $125 • Final term tuition: $280 • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Textbooks and materials: $10 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Seyi

    Wishing you peace, Seyi. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

            Rooting for you, Seyi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
