Shadrack writes: "I presently live with my mother and stepfather because my biological father abandoned me and my mother when I was only 6 weeks old. Because of that my mother who is a trader has since paid for my education alone. When I turned 10 years old, my mother married again but my stepfather does not pay for my education because I am not his son. My mother doing this as a single parent in disguise without any good and sustainable source of income constrains the family and threatens the possibility of my being able to complete the Senior High School and further to the University to be able to achieve my dream of becoming a lawyer. I therefore appeal to any person or institution to help complement the strong but inadequate effort of my mother and serve as a beacon of hope for me to attain higher education as I aspire to be a lawyer in the future. In the midst of this, I remain committed to my education because I know it is the only way to redeem myself, my family and my village in the future from economic and social poverty."
