Barrister Opeyemi Tiffany Ehimiaghe, who made a first class despite all odds, today shared and inspiring story on TVC Yourview show with the ladies. She said, ‘I put my story out there not because I’m bored but to humbly encourage someone out there not to lose hope”
She said: ”It’s been one of the toughest years of my life. I lost my mom – my only surviving parent – my family had to come together to pay my final year school fees following the scarcity of foreign exchange and the recession in Nigeria. Also, I had to work to support my living expense and my other day-to-day cost. I was working three shifts which were very inconvenient for my studies but I had no choice… However, I quit the jobs because I could not keep up with it.
My friends at Lancaster helped me out financially following my mom’s demise and I really couldn’t have done it without their help.
I want to say a big thank you to all the people who have made a huge contribution to my life. My life has worked out perfectly thanks to the help and support I received at university.”
