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
