THE QUEST: From Struggles to Strength
By: Akeem Oyegbenle
East, North, South, and West
Home is mirrored the best
An institution makes a call
To hear every listener
Echoing, ‘Education and Sacrifice’
‘Are likely to be inseparable twins’
We left our comfort zone
Just for academic's sake
We left our dear family
Just for academic sake
We left a friendly environment
Just to have advantage over ignorance
Education is a tough process
Yet we are tougher than the process
I know one day will be one day
When we shall overcome
The shortcomings of financial instability
And become the cherished leader
One day shall surpass
That life will become desirable
And the difficulties of today
Will become an antidote
Which will be Used to encourage youngsters
God Almighty shall speak greatly
That this desired day shall come to pass
Of which we shall look back with nostalgia
In those days with laughter-filled
And to the priceless memories
Created with friends and acquaintances
Though everyone wants to succeed.
But not everyone is willing
to go through hardship to get there
I pray to God Almighty
In the journey of academics
We should not be taken home dead
Letting our days in school
Become fruitful and worthwhile
For our indispensable sacrifices
Should not become vain
