A TRIUMPHANT JOURNEY

I envision triumph, a future aglow A difference maker in academia's hallowed halls I'll grow My primary years, a labyrinth of sound English spoken, a nightmare that wrapped me around My father's decree, a mandate to conform English only, a language to adorn But I was disadvantaged, a sibling apart Their English-speaking school, a world that left me to depart Then came Victory Academy, Isua Akoko's shining light Where literacy and spoken English ignited my sight I rose through the ranks, Language Prefect, a title I bore Under Hon. Alabi and Mr. Oladokun's guidance, I explored Today, I stand tall, a specialist in Education's noble quest Literature in English and the language itself, I've mastered and possessed My journey, a testament to perseverance and might A triumphant tale of overcoming, shining with delight.
