Bisola Aiyeola of Big Brother Naija has said that she was “jammed” when she wrote the Joint Matriculation Examination Board (JAMB).
In a recent interview with NAIJ, the former BBNaija spoke about problems she encountered while trying to get a university degree saying “I wrote Jamb and I was jammed. It’s not like I did not try.”I tried so many schools all over the country. It’s not that I wasn’t passing the exams; it was a problem of not getting funds. I did not have money to pay for certain things.
“I was even duped when I tried to for admission into LASU. That pulled me back and all this just made me discouraged. I also tried National Open University (NOUN) and you know it is very easy to get into NOUN, but at certain times, you need to pay certain fees.
“Believe me, it was difficult to raise N15, 000 at that time. I just decided at a point to use my talent to feed myself”.
Speaking about harsh experience she has undergone in life, she said “Sometimes, when there was no food to eat at home, I take my daughter to my neighbor’s house under the pretext of watching television and stylishly feed my daughter and myself.
“That’s why I can relate to people because when you are down, you are down. But one cannot just stay down. I would love to help people get out of this type of situation”, she concluded.
