AFTER FAILING JAMB, NIGERIAN BOY WRITES FUNNY BOOKS, MAKES ₦14.5M 

A Nigerian boy who could not pass his Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) in 2021 has started making a lot of money with his talent. A viral story told on Twitter by Dev Tobs revealed that the boy is a talented writer who writes comic books.

After he attempted UTME and was unsuccessful, he was said to have refused to give up and started using his talent entirely. 

"He wrote JAMB twice with no major headway, but his folks noticed he had a flair for writing, hence his brother who’s my close pal, also a software Engineer, advised he starts hoisting the comic books he writes on this Amazon thingy, Etsy and one other one." 

He has made so much money from it. According to the story, he made as much as N14.5 million. He has now relocated abroad. "Yes, you didn’t misread, he made $19k (N14.5 million). Two years down the line today, I got the news that he’s moved up to Canada for his bachelor's and I couldn’t stop but feel happier."
