Despite his initial hesitation, his mother insisted he purchase the form.

“2008, before I wrote my WAEC. My mum gave me 4k to register for JAMB… Initially I rejected the money and told her I wasn’t ready, but she insisted I buy the JAMB form. To God be the glory, I got admission even before my WAEC results came out.. God bless all mums,” @Obasteve91 tweeted.
