Minstrel sheds tears on sign-out day after spending 9 years to get Bachelor of Science
She was withdrawn from her course in 2017 for poor performance
A minstrel, Eri Oluwatobiloba, has taken to social media to thank God for finally graduating from the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) a few years after being thrown out of her course for poor academic performance.
Eri said she spent a total of nine years to bag a BSC from FUNAAB.
In the process, she said she lost many friends and her mates that she started with have since graduated and left her behind in the school.
She showed a reel of herself celebrating her final success with her colleagues.

“A journey of 9 years, has come to an end YESTERDAY 😩😩😩🥹🎉🎉🎊🎊, OLUWASEUN, this is a dream come through, have always wished to see myself on a signing out tee , with the caption, {NOW A GRADUATE 👩🎓},
Anytime I see people posting their self as a graduate,
I just always wish it for myself, and here I am today ..A GRADUATE 👩🎓
THE DEGREE IS MY 🎊🎊🎊🎊
GOD DID IT 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿,
My BSC didn’t come on a platter of GOLD,
I struggled, I worked hard, I prayed, I cried, to get this, me standing here today is just God, this is a lady that was withdrawn from here program 2017/2018, with 12 carryovers 😢😢😢🥹🥹, then I thought 💭it was over, I cried my eyes 👀out.
I felt like a failure, when my mate were promoting to other levels, Eri couldn’t go with them, instead, I repeated a level, when my mate were graduating eri couldn’t graduate,
It’s a whole long story, was it how I was walking around the school to look for a department to admit me, when I was withdrawn from my department,
During this period I loose a whole lot of friends,
I was mocked 😊
In fact, it’s got to a time and people started telling me when you even won graduate bayi, you won old for school ni, All your mate are this and that 😊
In all I still HELD ON GOD 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
But GLORY TO GOD AND A BIG THANK YOU TO MY PARENTS THAT STOOD BY ME DURING THOSE PERIOD,
YEA!!! I made mom and dad proud ,I’m a living testimony of the lord, trust me , GOD WIPED my tears away, God Cleared my CO’s, if you are holding on to God ,please don’t stop,GOD is never a loser, he has helped me in my weakest time, God came through for me, I’m standing here today because I didn’t give up and I kept holding on to GOD
