Last year September, I got a fully funded 4-year PhD scholarship with generous stipends at Queen Mary university of London.
I was 35weeks pregnant at the time, I was just visiting my parents the day I got the email. 
I thought it was a prank. I could not even remember when I applied. Pregnancy brain I guess 😂
I had so many emotions running through my mind. I was shocked, excited, confused because I was in the last weeks of my pregnancy and tbh, traveling out of Nigeria was the last thing on my mind. The school expected me to show up almost immediately lastest in 3 months but I knew in my spirit that it won't be possible. I had planned to give birth around family and I could not give birth and then start packing a bag to travel.
After much praying and consultation, I emailed the scholarship team that I needed to stay and give birth and also rest because I can't come and dieded...I needed alot more time. 
I remember my friend telling me ..SE you dey wine me, oga start moving 😂. TBH it's such a competitive award that if you slack it could go to someone else.
Two weeks after I got another email saying they would give me an entire year to give birth and get ready..that my scholarship will be preserved for me...Lol..still in awe at what God can do..NSPPD prayers work
it's been a crazy journey getting here but God kept taking care of everything.
