As a mother notwithstanding the criticism went ahead to do what was best for her daughter.

After all being said, the outcome of the decision brought an astounding performance Benita took it upon herself to proudly share her daughter’s impressive WASSCE result.

In her words:

“So last year, I posted how I made Chisom switch from Art class to science class and still stepped her down (repeat a class) cos I noticed she was far better with science subjects.

“After the post, some close friends reached out to me even in the comment section some said I shouldn’t have done that as she’s entitled to what she Wants to be.

“Remember I told y’all she’s good at caring for babies and others, even her school confirmed it, and for this reason discussed it with her and made her see reasons why she should study nursing.

“As someone who’s very good with English and literature I noticed she won’t prevail if she continued with art subjects as she always got a C or D in literature and English, but smashed maths and other science subjects.

“So after ss1, I asked that she repeat ss1 and move to science class which the school did willingly.

“Long story short! Ladies and gentlemen I present to you my madam’s WAEC result. I’m so excited.

“The essence of this post is no other reason than to let y’all know you can guide a child choose a course and not impose it on them. If I had someone who guided me, should be a lawyer today but my dad said he would never pay my school fees to study law. I’m glad we are changing the narratives. To God be the glory.”
