Life is filled with challenges that one needs to overcome. Sometimes they become difficulties that are overwhelming. Nwabisa was faced with a challenge that she overcame through her faith.
“I took part in the campaign and I had to find a company where I could do my internship as a junior quantity surveyor. The company that I found didn’t cater for students, especially female students. Because of my faith and persevering in what I wanted, I did not give up,” said Nwabisa.
Her mother could not afford to pay her tuition fees but she managed to obtain a bursary to cover all her education expenses.
Two years ago Nwabisa took part in the Campaign of Israel asking God to help her further her studies. When she was awarded the bursary, she began to study for a degree in engineering.
“I decided to ‘climb’ in the recent campaign and God blessed me. I was accepted by the company that did not want to take me for the internship. I am the fi rst female student to be taken on as a junior quantity surveyor in the company,” said Nwabisa.
