Precious Udoh

‎Maybe I would really have amounted to nothing without them.
‎
‎I had a little chitchat with Mum and she made me realise today is Teachers’ Day. Forgive me for not knowing, it’s been a while since I left primary and secondary school.
‎
‎To all my teachers, especially the ones who were fond of beating me because I was really a stubborn pupil. I only cared about break time and closing time. And me and food that time ehh… Chai. They really tried.
‎
‎But honestly, looking back, I’m grateful.
‎
‎God bless all the teachers who never gave up on me. I’m proud to say that the Precious Udoh I am today is partly because of what they invested in me.
‎
‎To all my mentors, I appreciate you. I won’t mention names because I might forget someone, but believe me when I say this girl is grateful.
‎
‎And to my first teachers, my parents…
‎
‎Daalu oo. Sonsongo. Eshe. Merci. Narekele.
‎
‎Thank you for everything you poured into this girl. I really would not be here without you all.
‎
‎And to the ones I will meet soon, God bless you too.
‎
‎Your efforts never went to waste.
