A Nigerian youth who became a lawyer despite daunting challenges has gone viral on Facebook.
Inyene Dominic Akpan posted his grass to grace story after he was called to the bar on Tuesday, December 6.
Inyene’s story immediately went viral as it was reposted by other Facebook users who sought to celebrate with him.
According to Inyene, he lost his mother at the age of four, his dad at the age of five, and also lost his right arm at the age of ten.
None of these irreparable losses deterred Inyene from pursuing his dreams as he still went ahead to study law and graduate.
He said his story signifies determination and that he dared to try despite all odds.
His words:
“From losing, my mum at age 4, my dad at age 5, and my upper right limb at age 10 to becoming the first Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in my family. It’s been GOD, my FAMILY and FRIENDS, and someday soon, I hope to share my story.”
