The young girl who got pregnant in her 200-level and still graduated with a First Class at the Federal University of Technology, Akure, FUTA, has been granted N500,000 by VIVA Detergent.
CONVERSEER reports that Blessing struggled to see herself through school after her family rejected her for taking in at a young age while studying at the university.
Blessing who resorted to selling popcorn and ice cream to cater for her education, herself and her kid, took to social media to share her story.
Her touching story caught the attention of VIVA on X (formerly Twitter), who offered her half a million grant to boost her business.
“Dear Blessing, thank you for being a great inspiration to many. You are proof that no matter what life brings, anyone can have a fresh start. We would love to support you & your businesses with VIVA products & N500,000 cash,” VIVA posted on X
