Simon Godwin Idoko, a 29-year-old young man, who graduated with a First Class degree from the Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry, Usman Danfodiyo University, Sokoto State in 2017 has completed his National Youth Service Corps, NYSC.

IDOMA VOICE had exclusively reported that Idoko, a native of Udaburu Owukpa, Ogbadibo LGA of Benue State, said his dream of becoming a medical doctor or pharmacist was frustrated after sitting for UTME for five times without success.

Still not discouraged, Godwin decided to take JAMB UTME the sixth time and was offered to study Applied Chemistry at the Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto where he graduated with a first class, garnering a total of 4.75 CGPA.

In April 2018, the Nigerian mediasphere literally went up in flame with the story of a young, resilient and resolute achiever.
The story of Simon Godwin Idoko enjoyed a massive publicity after he conquered his obstacles, shook off his challenges and came out with his head high above the academic sea.

Idoko was attached to the Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu State where he served as his Place of Primary Assignment (PPA) in the Chemistry Department.

The young Chemist took to his Facebook page on Thursday to thank those who were part of his laudable feat.

He wrote:

I want to thank God for the successful completion of NYSC. Thanks to my parents - Chief Onagene Simon Omonu Idoko (the kindred head of Ai-Owoya, Amuche, Owukpa, Benue state) and Queen Agnes Idoko for their sacrifices that made it possible for me to reach this stage of my life. My special thanks go to Dr Idoko Emmanuel Omale (my incomparable uncle) and my brother - Simon Idoko John. Other people that contributed to my enjoyable NYSC experience are Dr Igah Omale Igah, Comrade Daniel Abakpa, Ameh Comrade Godwin, Mrs Aladi Stephen, Mr Ogbanje Abah, Mr Okpe Agada and Ameh John Ekere. Thanks to all the staff of Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu (my Place of Primary Assignment (PPA)) for the good treatment. I want to thank the Head of Chemical Sciences Department - Mr Ayuk Eugene for his care. Thanks to the secretary of the department - Mrs Ngozi Uleanya for the cash gift. Thanks to Prof. C.O. Okafor and Mrs Chinelo Okeke for their cash gifts. Thanks to Mrs Scholastica Ilo for her care. Thanks to everybody. I have the most caring people in the world! When I was a corps member...

So? First class that might end up with keke napep or Uber or even gas retail seller..... Mtcheeeeew

Better to graduate with third class with connection in Nigeria than to graduate with first class without connection.

Na job be Koko not first class

May stray bullet never hit u. Amen

Congrats to him. Shame unto jamb. That's how they almost killed that boy the other day.

AwkaetitiBabe:
Doesn't guarantee a job, na that one be d main koko.

But he is thousands of miles ahead of his peers with lower classes of grade in the labour market.

Stop being pessimistic, first class graduates don't really suffer much to get jobs as compared to others.

Mr Simon Godwin Idoko, your labour shall not be in vain.

Cheers man!!!

6 years of his life gone with the wind.

Congratulations to him

U will see this surname in enugu, kogi and benue

The ones in benue are Igala middle belt hausas
The ones in enugu same thing.


The creation of states in Nigeria was badly structured, mapping out kins and brothers from each other.


Idoko for instance has no business been in Enugu state.

The mistake of Nigeria right from British is why trying to look smart commits further mistakes.

These group of persons suppose to be together as one.


Until such is corrected the country will remain badly structured.

He could have gone farther than this in life if he faced another education, it's not only formal education that will turn you into a responsible person in the society.

He wasted 6 years of his life because he was lied to about education being the key,

He further hopefully spend another 4-5 years in the uni + another wasted year of NYSC cuz he still believes that lied...

imagine how far one can go in life in the period of 10 years.

It's a pity he'll spend another years searching for a job.

School doesn't determine how far or how great you'll be in life.

The guy ruling us currently only went to NEPA office.

Bros go and hustle. Nigeria labour market doesn't respect certificate

Hahaha

Nonsense

Ok

Young pappy stay away from ladies with their breastfeeds looking down � you will be successful in life

Cheers
