Christianah’s journey to victory was no easy feat. Fueled by the inspiration of a fellow Covenant student who won silver last year, she took on the challenge, determined to make her mark. Racing against the clock, she submitted her essay just minutes before the deadline at 11:59 PM, aware that it was her last eligible year to compete as she nears her 18th birthday.
The announcement of her Gold medal win filled Christianah with joy and pride, placing her among the distinguished Nigerian winners of this global competition.
During a recent Chapel Service, Covenant University Vice-Chancellor, Professor Abiodun H. Adebayo, introduced Christianah to the congregation, applauding her for her persistence and commitment. He commended her achievement as a reflection of Covenant University’s "possibility mentality," one of the pillars of the institution’s 5.0 Agenda, and encouraged other students to emulate her drive and pursue excellence in their endeavors.
Christianah credited her victory to Covenant University’s core values, especially diligence and sacrifice, which she has upheld since she was 13. Her dedication to late-night study sessions and persistence in the face of challenges culminated in a win that brings honor to herself and her university community.
Christianah’s story is more than a personal triumph; it serves as a powerful reminder to Covenant University students to dream big, work hard, and embrace every opportunity to achieve greatness. https://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/.../750-covenant...
