POPOOLA WASIU; A PARADIGM ON HOW GOD WORK

POPOOLA WASIU; A PARADIGM ON HOW GOD WORK
Sulaimon Saad Taiye

Iṣẹ kolowo, Momawẹ́ o de gbé ni wọ ilẹ ẹkọ gíga, afi ẹ̀ní Oluwa pa bè lọ na rẹ́.
Popoola was a brilliant child with an intelligence, but he grew on his own accord, no guidance. So, anything he found aspiring to him, he does it and guess what, he succeeded in them.

Till he finished his junior class, he was been look upto by what the Yoruba will call "Ọmọ lile gang" the stubborn type. They are not Liot, that cause riot in totality, and it will be lying to say they are gentlemen. However, they will never be silent for taking their rights. They fight with all blood and water in their soul to get it right. Until after the junior, he turned a new leaf, and turned those around him. Since he is a leader figure, he leads by example.

Abdulwasiu became a book Warmer and attended every lesson to acquire the necessary tools for his Senior class, He became a mathematician and  staunt  English personnel. He teaches, does lessons and leads people to the right path. Then, he started his journey to acquire Arabic knowledge, between three to four months, he could read the Qur'an. He didn't stop, he further read other Arabic literatures and grammar that can lead him to translate the Arabic language.

While he was supposed to write his Senior results, he couldn't because of the predestined occurrence, his final exam became Senior class students for SSCE results that were not processed. Then, he started working out of school to make the end means of paying for SSCE results, despite his brilliance he wrote more than three, that his savings are often exhausted every time he does. He never stopped trying, and he didn't have any supporting hand for this, even right from the junior class, he has Scott all through, thank goodness he had had accommodating friends. He saves and exhausts until he is granted grace by God.

On this sojourn, he lost his dear mum, which was a force that pushed him to be hungry for success. Should he now back down? No he didn't, he studied, after he came from his daily hard work, he teaches children of the environment free lessons, some of which had gotten admission to varsities while their teachers are still struggling to have a Senior certificate. I later realised, his intelligence quotation is beyond the WAEC standard, then I advised to make use of the Primary section of the English curriculum to prepare for the Exam. God wishes, he had the exam and was privileged to have the Jamb.  In fact, his admission as a Media personnel came earlier, he knew no one. Then, God miracles that had been working began to show and appeared sensible to us.

He pledged that he will be representing his class at all costs, taking care of humans had been his doings. As a leader figure that he was, and an intelligent fellow, he was found attracted by all and sundries. Then, he was appointed the class representative during the National diploma. He changed physically, improved financially and became an academic staunch. Lecturers appreciate his presence and efforts, colleagues found him admirers and to families and friends, he has made them proud, and added to his name and appellation that everyone wants to hear Popson.

As you're doing well in your Higher diploma,
May your new age increase you in diplomacy, wisdom, success and prosperity.
