One Samuel Aboki posted this on Linked In. The story is about a lady whom her teacher looked down on, many years ago in secondary school. According to Aboki, the teacher was newly posted to the school and as soon as she saw this girl then, she quickly concluded that she will amount to nothing because she smiles too much.

Aboki did not mention the name of this young lady nor the name of her former teacher that underrated her for her smiles. But he mentioned the name of the school to be Mary-Rose Ilaya Secondary School. He didn’t even mention the community nor the state.

READ THE POST HE MADE ON LINKEDIN WHICH HE TITLED MARY-ROSE ILAYA

Years ago, a newly transferred teacher to Mary-Rose Ilaya’s secondary school, took one look at her and said that she doesn’t look like someone that will amount to anything much because she smiles too much.

FAST FORWARD to 2019, she bagged a First Class honours from the department of Biomedical Technology, Federal University of Technology, Owerri.

A 4.65/5.0 scale made her the best graduating student of my department for the 2018/2019 session.
