A distressed Nigerian man by the name of Praise Akinlami has taken to social media to share a heart-wrenching ordeal involving his final year project work. In a somber recounting of events, he revealed the shocking discovery of his painstakingly researched project abandoned in a trash bin.
According to Akinlami, the devastating revelation came to light when one of his friends stumbled upon discarded copies of his final year project work amidst the refuse. This discovery left Akinlami and those who heard his story deeply disheartened, given the immense investment of time, dedication, and resources typically poured into such academic endeavors.
In an emotional video shared by Akinlami, he expressed his frustration and disappointment, emphasizing that he had meticulously planned and executed his project work since his freshman year (100-level). He further disclosed the significant financial resources and considerable stress he had endured to produce this research work, only for it to meet an undignified fate in the trash.
The incident has sparked reactions from netizens, each offering their perspective on the matter. Some questioned the necessity of holding onto the projects indefinitely, while others sympathized with Akinlami's plight and shared their own experiences of valuable research work ending up discarded and unappreciated.
As this story continues to resonate on social media, it serves as a stark reminder of the challenges and emotional toll that academic pursuits can exact, especially when one's hard work and dedication seem to go unrecognized and unvalued.
