Omar was 18 years old at the time, and he had done well in school without bending the rules to cheat in his studies as he had achieved 7 credits in his Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (SSCE) and had scored 230 in his Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
He had been admitted to study Law in the Kongo Campus of the university, and this brought a proud moment to the Ahmed family, more so the mother, Ummi, who had wanted to follow Law but, due to one or another reason, had to complete a degree in Accounting instead.
The family was thrilled about the success of Omar. His sisters Teemah, Jamila and Bint were excited by this news and the family could not wait to hear the good news along with Mr. Esquire.
Ummi especially found this an occasion to teach her children some good life lessons, that getting to university and into university is not just a school event, it is life, and one needs to be mature, responsible, and need to follow some moral values
