    “I was very excited. It was almost unbelievable because I wasn’t expecting such an outcome from something that I stumbled upon,” an elated Wuraola told Nigeria Tennis Live.

    “It (the scholarship opportunity) was sent to a school group so I decided to give it a try,” she added.

    “All these great things have happened, not because I’m extra special or anything, but because of God’s blessings in my life. So I give thanks to Him.

    “They gave me the scholarship because of my academic performance, passion for education and my moral behavior during the interviews. I’m a bit nervous but excited too,” Mr. Wuraola told our correspondent.
