A
Muslim woman who converted to Christianity has shared the inspirational
story how her conversion made her bag a first class degree.
Miss Rabiyat Usman, a first class graduate of the Rhema University,
Aba has said that her conversion to Christianity transformed the course
of her life and academics.
Usman, therefore, charged undergraduates of Nigerian Universities
to fear God and be disciplined, if they wanted a brighter future.
The 23-year-old graduate gave this advice in Aba on Monday, after
her graduation on Saturday, during an interview with the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) in Aba.
Usman, who has finished her youth service, urged undergraduates to
prepare themselves for a competitive world out there with discipline,
fear of God and obedience to the university authorities.
The first class graduate said that there was no future for lazy and
undisciplined graduates in the larger society, hence the need for a
brighter future through hard work.
She said she made a first class honours degree because she was
fortunate to have accepted Jesus Christ as her Saviour early at Living
Word Academy.
“I actually came into this Secondary School at Nkwerre, Imo
State from a different religion, but I became a Christian in JSS 1,
while studying in the secondary school.
“My conversion made all the difference because Christianity
really helped me to learn the tenets that support hard work and
connection to God’s assistance. It was God all the way.
Usman thanked Brother Emma Okorie, the Rhema University Chancellor, for believing in her.
According to her, she was given a scholarship from JSS 1 at the
Living Word Academy, Nkwerre, Imo State, to her final year in Rhema
University, Aba.
The Okene-born Usman said that she had secured admission to
Buckingham University, in the U.K. to further her education, before
returning to bless Nigerians with her expertise.
She, however, noted that she would prefer to study at Harvard
University, but stressed that she needed some scholarship or funding, to
help her to pay tuition overseas.
