Overcoming Rejection and Missed Opportunities: My Journey from Nigeria Immigration to Reclaiming Lost Chances
Life is a series of trials and tribulations, and it is often through the most difficult moments that we find the strength to persevere and push ahead. My journey has been one filled with setbacks, disappointments, and rejection. From being denied the opportunity to complete my education at Olabisi Onabanjo University, to being rejected from the Nigeria Immigration exercise, to losing countless other opportunities due to missing documents, the challenges have been immense. However, despite all of this, I have resolved not to give up. I am determined to push ahead, regain lost opportunities, and secure a better future for myself and my family.
Rejected from Nigeria Immigration Exercise
One of the most painful rejections I have faced was during my attempt to join the Nigeria Immigration Service. Like many Nigerians, I had dreams of serving my country in a meaningful way, and I saw a career in immigration as an opportunity to make a positive impact while also securing a stable livelihood. I went through the rigorous application process, attending interviews, submitting documents, and preparing myself mentally and physically for the challenges that lay ahead.
