I want to use this opportunity to appeal to well-meaning Nairalanders and Nigerians as a whole to please come to my aid.

I am a 200level student studying business management in one of the universities in northern Nigeria and I am afraid, I am on the verge of dropping out of school due to financial hardship.

I was never expecting things to be this worst after working very tirelessly the last session to build a strong CGPA (4.83 in a 5.00 grading system) and now, situations want to force me out. My sponsor's job is no more lucrative and his ability to sustain me has dropped.

Please don't term me "lazy" because all throughout the ASUU strike period and pending this moment when my school is officially resuming, I have been running around with various ideas to ensure things don't go this way. I got involved in blogging but there was no results to show for it, partook in various scholarship scheme e.g Nairaland Xfire Scholarship (Never made it) and the NNPC/Total Scholarship (Final list not yet out), and a couple of other things.

All I am pleading for, from my fellow Nigerians is my fees amounting to N35000 (School fees = N27000 and hostel= N8090).

I am currently in my state (South-South Nigeria) and plans on selling my phone for transport back to school but what I need now is my fees to ensure I partake in the ongoing registration, that was recently made opened and to ensure I am able to secure a bed space for myself on time before it gets late.

Please believe me when I say I am not a scammer and will never be one. I know how good, Nairaland and other social platform can be and that's what prompted me in bringing my case here. If you may even want to know more, we can chat on what's App, where I can reveal my ID number and password to my profile on my school's registration portal to do whatever findings, you may want to engage in yourself just to prove I am no scam.

Please help, I am depressed and don't want to lose the opportunity of going to school.

Thank you all.

Sorry Seun, Lalasticlala and others. This thread may be derailing but am deeply sorry.
