Growing up, my dream was always to earn a university degree and become a professional in the field of computing. I believe in education as the most powerful tool to break the cycle of poverty, not just for myself, but for my family and community.<\/p>\n<p>I was once a student at Kogi State University, Anyigba, where I studied with great passion and commitment. Unfortunately, during my final year, I was forced to drop out because I couldn\u2019t afford the school fees. Despite trying different means to raise funds, I couldn\u2019t continue, and it was one of the most painful moments of my life. I still have evidence to show my time at the university and the challenges that led to my withdrawal.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, I have not given up. My desire to complete my education, especially in the field of computing, is still burning. I have continued learning through online platforms, taking free and affordable courses when I can. But I know that to truly make a meaningful impact, I need formal education and a degree.<\/p>\n<p>This scholarship is not just financial support to me, it is a second chance. It is the hope of rewriting my story and becoming a skilled, educated, and resourceful person who can give back to others facing similar struggles. If given this opportunity, I promise to give my best and make the most of it, not just for myself but for everyone who believes in me.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for considering my story.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<br \/>\nIbrahim Tahir Enesi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","cohorts":[20],"class_list":["post-4753","nominees","type-nominees","status-publish","hentry","cohorts-cohort-1"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sterling.ng\/decide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/nominees\/4753","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sterling.ng\/decide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/nominees"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sterling.ng\/decide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/nominees"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sterling.ng\/decide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4753"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cohorts","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sterling.ng\/decide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cohorts?post=4753"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
