Despite being faced with financial hardships, Sam’s determination drove him to excel academically far above his peers. As the “Best Graduating Student”, “Best Graduating Science Student”, and the recipient of the Directors Excellence Award for obtaining all ‘A’s in WASSCE, Sam demonstrated the power of consistency, drive and confidence. He is described by his teachers as being pragmatic, a goal setter and level-headed. He was the president of the JETS club, volunteered with Friends of the Helpless Club, Enrile Youth Association, and was Senior Prefect of Starfield College.

Sam believes a Chemical Engineering degree from UBC would give him an avenue to achieve his goal of providing a long-lasting solution to the energy and power supply problem in Nigeria. He hopes to learn how to diversify the energy sector and provide more access to cleaner, renewable and sustainable energy in the country. In his free time, Sam enjoys playing football, badminton, and playing the drums.
