On the 5th of May, my birthday, I didn’t wake up thinking about cake, outings, or celebration.
I woke up thinking about my exams starting that same morning.
I posted as usual now, whilst people were sending birthday wishes, I was writing for Paper 1😂 in one Conner somewhere inside a CBT center.
That morning, I looked up to God and said:
“Lord, this year, let my result be my birthday gift.” ❤️🙏🏽
From the 5th to the 8th, it was back-to-back pressure.
Paper 1… 250 questions that I didn’t answer 15 questions before my time elapse and I had to submit 😩
Paper 2…
Viva…
Then OSCE practicals.
It was one of the toughest journeys of my life.
Six months of adaptation far from home, hospital postings, sleepless nights, reading till my eyes hurt, stress, pressure, financial requests up and down from NMCN, financial struggles, mental exhaustion.
But quitting was never an option.
Many people do not understand what it means to leave a country of study 🇨🇲 with a license and still have to start another difficult journey just to practice in your own country 🇳🇬, came back from Cameroon with my nursing license, yet I still had to go through another process to become licensed in Nigeria.
Since graduating in 2024, I held onto this dream tightly. I prayed over it. I sacrificed for it. I prepared for it. I trusted God even when things looked uncertain.
After finishing my exams on Friday, the waiting period almost felt harder than the exams themselves. Result was said to be out on Wednesday 13th May. Every day I checked, prayed, hoped, and waited.
And today…
I finally saw my result, I literally woke up to it.
I PASSED!!! 😭😭❤️
Ah God… THANK YOU.
The God who started this journey with me truly finished it with me.
This is more than just an exam result. This is proof that determination, sacrifice, consistency, and faith can take you places.
Never let delay make you think God has forgotten you.
Never let struggle convince you to give up.
Never compare your journey with others.
Your testimony may take time, but when it comes, it will be worth every tear, every sleepless night, and every sacrifice.
Today, I am grateful.
Today, I am proud of myself.
Today, I have another reason to believe that with God, absolutely nothing is impossible. ❤️🙏🏽
