Mbagwu Johnpaul Chiagoziem, a young man who graduated with a first class from Imo State University, Owerri, has revealed that all the people who promised him gifts failed to fulfil their pledges.
The native of Isiala Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State had broken a 39-year-old record in the institution when he emerged the first student ever to graduate with a first class in industrial physics at IMSU with a 4.51 CGPA.
Speaking in an interview with Legit, Chiagoziem said that over 10 people failed to fulfil promises and he was probably not celebrated with large cash gifts because he wasn’t a Big Brother Naija housemate.
In his words; ”More than 10 people pledged and they didn’t fulfil it. That’s Nigeria or let me just say African mentality. If I was a BBN housemate they will quickly rush to donate millions of naira or cars to me, but I’m not a BBN or Former BBN housemate.
There is a saying that goes thus, “Don’t expect things from people if not you will be disappointed waiting for their offers”. I have learnt this on several occasions, so I don’t expect things from people because they will promise and fail you as far as they are not God. After all, God never fails”
On what his plans are in the next five years, he said; ”To be an expert and pedagogy in physics at a research university upon completion of my graduate studies.
My ambition is to be a subject matter expert in this field, while also collaborating and networking with other liked minded researchers to designing and developing result based researchers that will help humanity at large.”
