Please, Someone correct my errors
I am Fashina Quadri. I came from a lower class Nigerian family. As it is being said " no one would have crossed the ocean if he could have gotten off the ship in the storm. My family has been able weather the sun to see the sunshine being bond with love through the thicks and thins, as growing up and being educated has really been challenging for my family. Being a family of eight with my father being a peasant automobile electrician and my mum being a petty trader.
My father, though a peasant automobile electrician had strong desire in ensuring his children acquires formal education despite his low means. His effort, tenacity and commitment to this course steered up an aspiration in me to recreate my economic environment and created a new view of life that whatsoever is what doing at all is what doing well.
This desire in me to recreate my immediate environment and World as a whole made me develop interest in economics as a subject in secondary school. Having been taught by my teacher that a well formulated and implemented economic policy could change the status of the poor like my father and bridge the gap between the rich and the poor.
In order to deepen my knowledge of Economics , I enrolled for a bachelor of science degree program in Economics at the Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta. During the course of the program, I engaged in numerous extra- curricular activities like the representation of my department in a debate competition, being a member of my department handball team and I also served as the public relations officer of my department's association. Although combining these with my academic pursuit was a bit challenge but I pulled having learnt multi tasking skills from my family. Moreso , my determination to cause in change in my environment combined with hardwork and commitment made me graduate on top of my class with a CGPA of 4.58 out 5 grade point.
During the mandatory National Youth Service Corps, I worked as a graduate assistant in the department of Economics in UNIJOS where I assisted the head of department in gathering research data and conducting of lectures and continuous assessment test.
My quest to initiate a change in my country economic environment made me apply for this program as I seek to have both the theoretical and practical knowledge of development policy and its workings that has transformed countries like South Korea to become the eleventh largest economy in the world.
