According to him, her decision was based on the suffering she saw him go through.
Bello added that their father died 32 days ago, and his sister couldn’t read for the JAMB exam amid the pain.
Yet, she scored 270. Bello reposted his old tweet containing her picture, where she dressed as a doctor for her school’s career day.
“Lil sis saw the shege I was seeing as a doctor then and refused to even go to science class, let alone end up studying medicine. She lost her dad 32 days ago and couldn’t read for JAMB amidst all the pain, wrote JAMB last week, turned 16 yesterday and got a score of 270 today,” Bello wrote on X.
The girl’s result puts her among the 4.2 % of UTME candidates who scored 250 and above.
