Why Covenant University Graduate Turned Down Lucrative Job Offers To Become Village Teacher
  • Oluwademilade, who graduated from Covenant University in 2020, said that teaching makes her happy and fulfilled than any other work.

 

A Covenant graduate identified as Adelaja Oluwademilade, has turned down a juicy offer to work at a big urban establishment for a teaching job in a rural community in the hinterlands of Lagos state.

Oluwademilade, who graduated from Covenant University in 2020, said that teaching makes her happy and fulfilled than any other work.

Oluwademilade decision may seem absurd and surreal to many but she said teaching is her passion and she would give her all to realize her pedagogical goal.

In a LinkedIn post, she said that after completing her university education, she knew she wanted to become a teacher.

However, peer pressure from seeing friends working in big offices made her apply for a job.

To teach has always been her dream and Adelaja revealed that despite getting good offers from different places, she was not just satisfied with any.

After going through a note she wrote when participating in a program that was organised for final year students in her school, she had a change of mind.

In the note, she had outlined her plan for education in Nigeria. The Covenant University graduate took the courageous step and became a teacher in a rural area of Lagos, revealing that it was the easiest decision she ever made.

Despite Adelaja’s mother asking her to go for private schools that would pay well for her service, she did the contrary.
