A University of Lagos (UNILAG) graduate, Ayomide, has shared a heartfelt story about the reading group she formed with her friends during their first year at school.
What started as a simple way to stay on top of their academics evolved into a journey of shared success and remarkable achievements.
This reading group wasn’t just about hitting the books—it became a safe space for collaboration, mutual support, and shared dreams. By the time they graduated, this tight-knit group had achieved what many only aspire to:
- The Overall Best Graduating Student of Mathematics Education
- The Female Best Graduating Student of Mathematics Education
- One First-Class Honors graduate
For Ayomide, the group was a lifeline in navigating the highs and lows of university life. “We just wanted to stay focused and help each other through the challenges of school,” she explained. Little did they know their dedication and teamwork would push them all to achieve such extraordinary milestones.
Looking back, Ayomide credits their regular study sessions, the willingness to share resources, and the constant encouragement they gave one another as the keys to their success.
Beyond the grades and awards, the group created something even more valuable—friendships and bonds that will last a lifetime.
Ayomide’s story is a powerful reminder of how much we can achieve when we surround ourselves with people who uplift and motivate us. “It’s not just about academics,” she said. “It’s about the connections you build, the way you push each other, and the belief that no challenge is too great when you face it together.”
This reading group’s journey is more than just a success story—it’s an inspiration for students everywhere. It shows that success is sweeter when it’s shared, and that collaboration and determination can lead to greatness.
Congratulations to Ayomide and her amazing reading group. You’ve shown us all the true meaning of teamwork and the incredible power of community.
