Nobody knows how serious depression is till u actually experience it urself

Parents also needs to stop pressuring their kids in school or making them feel like their grade is everything.
Anyways,pikin wey won die go die

2.68 isn't enough to commit suicide




In Ogba femi there are people with 3rd class wet Boku sef

If dem send you go school to study, abeg go to school and study.

No go dia dey do ashawo runs by the side.

Because when e go begin hot, na only go dey hear am.

Do you people call 2.6 average student?. I was on 4.3 and yet called myself average student..

Depression is real.... Please support friends
Don't be too judgemental and critical... Look out for others

Chrisus:
2.68 ain't poor? Is their GPA scale 4.0?

average of 5.0 is 2.5 so 2.68 is not very poor to worth committing suicide, that's their point

israelmao:
Come unto me all you that labour and heavy Laden and I will give you rest.

rubbish and nonsense

you're a very good student. Average CGPA to me is 3.0 because it means you're getting average score - ie 50/100 in averagely all

I google searched her books and wow she's a brilliant writer, what could have been the problem that led her to commit suicide. May her soul find peace with her maker. Chai this country self, d many headaches fit make pesin reason wetin noh join

2.2 is a not a good result in Nigeria of today, let's not lie to ourselves especially when you are above the age of 25 and no strong connection to God or men of power. Those with 2.1 are still struggling because too much graduates are chasing too few jobs. Graduate inflation.

I don't want to believe her CGPA led her to depression and suicide biko, there must be a thin line between that we all don't know since she didn't drop a suicide note, we may never know. Abi no be people go graduate with 3rd class ni? I heard of a former VC who graduated with 3rd class but went on to become a professor and VC of a federal University. From my own POV o, having a average grade or result doesn't always determine your level of intelligence.

Baba, push am to 4.5 and let's celebrate here. Please, I am not putting pressure on you o. I don't want to receive names wey my Papa no Christened me

Where are you now with your 4.3?

So sad. It's either murder or mental health issues. Whichever one, may she rest in peace.

It's mental health. Rich people that got everything can get depressed. It's a mental health issue in which we are not really paying attention to in Nigeria. Things are really falling apart in the country.

Probably mental health. I'm suspecting that she's bipolar or something like that.

Look a good CGPA is not a guarantee for a great life post graduation. The best graduating student in my class is jobless till today almost 6 years after. The goal is to be successful in life not successful in school. If you have good grades but lack problem solving and critical thinking skills your grades won’t take you anywhere.

Management of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile – Ife, has said Opeyemi DARA, the 400-Level student who committed suicide was not doing poorly academically.

In a statement signed by the Public Relations Officer of the University, Abiodun Olarewaju on the death, the university noted that Opeyemi’s Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), which was 2.68, was on the Second Class Lower (2.2) band and could not be said to be poor academically, contrary to claims that she committed suicide because of poor grades.

The statement also noted that Opeyemi had no outstanding course to write and was only preparing to submit her final year project as a student of the English Department.

The statement reads: “The authorities of the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile – Ife, will like to commiserate with the parents, guardians, colleagues, friends and well-wishers of late Opeyemi Dara, a part four student of the Department of English, who was said to have committed suicide allegedly because of poor academic performance. The authorities of the University would, however, like to use this medium to put the records straight.

“Miss Dara is on a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 2.68 which qualified her, at least, to be an average student on a 2 – 2 class of grade. It is, therefore, our firm belief that a student who was on Second Class ((Lower Division) cannot be said to be poor academically, talk less of committing suicide because of such. In actual fact, Opeyemi DARA did NOT have any outstanding course except her project which she was yet to submit. The project could not have been a challenge to her because she had authored two books – ‘Heels on Steel’ (a play) and ‘ Let Me Run Mad Today (a poem) both published by the Words Rhymes and Rhythm Limited (www.wrr.ng).

“Opeyemi DARA was admitted to the University in the 2014/2015 academic session and her graduating year result (2017/2018) indicates that SHE HAD PASSED ALL THE DEPARTMENTAL COURSES except. Research Method and Project (EGL 420). She had NOT submitted any essay for grading which is understandable by virtue of her encounter of April 22 and the fact that she had not reported in the University since then.

“Opeyemi DARA, who resides off-campus, allegedly first took the Sniper on April 22, 2019, but the Security Unit of the University, on getting the information, went to her house, took her first to the University Health Centre where she was referred to the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex (OAUTHC). She was treated and discharged home to her parents. She was said to have been brought in by the parents and readmitted at the Intensive Care Unit of the OAUTHC last Thursday August 1, and she unfortunately died the next day. There are indications that she had an underlying medical condition

“The Obafemi Awolowo University has a very robust Student Advisory System which has been in place for decades, and the university has the highest number of dedicated Guidance Counsellors of any university in Nigeria.

“The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Eyitope Ogunbodede has appealed to all staff and students of the University to take advantage of the mechanisms put in place by the University administration in addressing all academic, social, medical and other challenges. All youths are advised never to see suicide as an option, since tough times do not last but are only passing phases in the lives of all mortals.”

Who says a good grade guarantees success in life. It sure gives you hope and hope is life, if you lose hope you have lost your life. Mind you, success in life means different things to different people, 6 years joblessness is not synonymous to failure if you ask me.
