23th October, 2014, 0434 hours GMT +1. Just about this time yesterday, the preparation for my final paper was on. I was actually warring against sleep just to fulfil the last examination requirement for the award of Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech). Now, those days are over, the warring is over! Through it all, it was God, the author in 2009 and the finisher in 2014. With a grateful heart, I thank you for being my help, my strength, my friend, my comfort, my hope, my supplier, my provider, my keeper, Hes Elohe Oluwaseun, God! Everything was just you. I thank God for my Parents. See them, they say they have the best parent in the world, but it is deception! Truth be told, I have the best parents. David and Funmilola Abiola, I thank you for everything. Abimbola, Oluwatoyin Dage and Ibiyemi Abiola - my siblings, Abiodun Victor Dage, thanks for the support, I LOVE YOU!

Mrs Oladimeji, Saibu Abdullahi, The entire families of Mr and Mrs Ode and Pastor and Pastor Mrs Osedayo, thanks for your support and contribution to the voyage. I remember vividly, on my post UME day, Oluwasegun Ajayi, you were right in front of me on the queue getting ready to write the exam. Thanks for the water you bought to quench that thirst. We both wrote the exam to be admitted in to the Faculty of Engineering but as the sovereign God would have it, we found ourselves in the Department of Transport Management Technology with no regrets anyway. There couldnt have been a better department. Seeing Segun that day was just an introduction to the other folks in the department. You guys are wonderful and am going to miss you big time. Abiodun Owolade! You are a wonderful brother, a very good one at that, you are a brotherly friend. Thanks for those words of encouragement and those advices, I APPRECIATE YOU BRO. To those we stayed in the same lodge together, Kolawole Salako, Sunday Adeusi, Stephen Adeusi, Jide Adeusi-my roomies, Tunde Olowookere (ogami Tunna), Seun Akinyemi (Sake mi aka Igiripa), Tolu Teniola (omo pipa), Shade Ayodele (Folasheddy), Ope (Omo Ibadan), Toyin Ayano, Ekundayo, Iyanuoluwa Aromaye, Opeyemi Abe, Olanrewaju Omolola, Oluwabukola Oyebiyi, Simeon Okemini, I appreciate the days shared under the same roof, you are all wonderful. Thank God for my family in school, FSF FUTA FAMILY. It is indeed the Destiny Institute of Learning, here, I was made, I encountered purpose, the people in this house are wonderful. Thanks for the values you added to my life and most importantly, the love shared. I cant forget to mention my nuclear family in the extended FSF FUTA FAMILY, FSF FUTA ORGANIZING UNIT, thanks for the love. You guys are wonderful. Idowu Israel, Segun Fakuade, Ibukun Adebolu, Oluwadara Afolabi, Bamise Okelola, David shonibare, Thompson Olanrewaju, Tobi Adesina, Stephen Adeusi, Sunday Adeusi, thanks for the impact. I have to forgive insufficiency of words to express how I feel right now, am going to miss every one of you. If they ever tell my story, let them say, I came to the Federal University of Technology, Akure. I walked with Giants, men came and went, but FUTA remains, but these names will never die. Let them say, Oluwaseun Abiola was here, let them say, I made it. And now, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling, am moving on. - Oluwaseun Abiola.
