"The biggest hardship that I have faced in my life was in the year 2016 when I almost dropped out of school due to fees problem. I was sent for school fees and I stayed at home for over 2 months. I felt my dreams of completing my secondary education and joining a public university had been shuttered. That time I failed to sit for my end term exams. However, I thank God because I got relieved when my brother came to my rescue and paid all the pending balances."
