Priscilla Akwagu, a determined single mother, has persevered despite the mountain of financial constraints during her studies at the University of Education, Winneba (UEW).
She sold buffloaf, commonly known as 'bofrot', to finance her education. Priscilla had to combine her work with her studies while singlehandedly undertaking her responsibilities as a mother.
Undaunted by the cycles of difficulties, she braved the odds and finally graduated with a first-class degree from UEW in the Central Region of Ghana.
''With the help of my sisters Rita Effi Darko, Perpetual Lomokie Akwada, and brother Suleman Manful Dadzie, we presented our small token of love to Priscilla Akwagu for striving to achieve such a feat despite all the obstacles that came her way. Her story is what I would title “From bofrot seller to a first class graduate,'' she said.
According to Adom, none of them knew Priscilla in person but when they heard the story of the determined single mother, they were intrigued and decided to surprise her.
