A UTME candidate decided that if prayers could move mountains, they could definitely move his admission prospects. With a JAMB score of 144, which is nowhere near the cutoff for Medicine at most universities, he made the journey to the University of Lagos to pray at the campus. His determination to get into Medicine despite the odds caught people's attention online when the video dropped.
The whole thing is kind of touching, honestly. Here's a guy who knows his score isn't competitive, but instead of giving up, he's out here taking action. He travelled to UNILAG specifically to pray, turning what could have been a sad story into something that shows real faith and determination. You can't help but respect the energy, even if the math doesn't add up.
Social media had a lot to say, as usual. Some people were inspired by his faith and courage. Others, well, they tried to be realistic about how JAMB scores and university admissions actually work. The comments section became a whole debate about whether belief alone can change your academic destiny, or if you need to combine faith with some extra study sessions and maybe a retake.
The real question now is what happens next. Will UNILAG make an exception? Will he try for a different course? Or will he retake JAMB and aim higher? Whatever the answer is, this guy's story is already reminding people that sometimes it's not just about the numbers on your screen. It's also about what you're willing to do to chase your dreams, even when things look impossible.
