I chose my field of study out of a passion for agriculture, excelling in it during my O'level. I aspire to transition my country's agriculture from traditional to modern practices.

BACKGROUND
My parents have nine children, and our elder brother, despite finishing O'level, had to drop out due to lack of school fees. Our parents struggle to pay for education, and our brother, who supported us, faced financial constraints. With the Help to Help scholarship, I am determined to complete my studies and focus on academic success.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
I chose my field of study because am passionate about agriculture and even it has been my best performed subject since my o'level. I also feel like changing the agricultural status of my country from traditional to modern agriculture. I aspire to be an extension officer, supporting local farmers with improved techniques. My goal is to educate on fertilizer use, soil erosion control through mulching, and introduce tools like tractors. Collaboration with the government and the Ministry of Agriculture will enhance accessibility to these resources.
INTERESTS
Right now am really interested in studying and finishing up my studies passing with high CGPA.
I would also love to be employed with in six months after my graduation such that I can be able to help my siblings and other children from humble families to finish their studies
