persistence and hard work.
He says, “It was not all that easy, because I had attempted the examination last
year, I did not make it then. But I remained focused and I put in a lot of hard work.

After school hours, if am not doing anything, I will go to my Information
Communication Technology teacher, to learn more.”
Jomiloju sat for the examination when he was in primary Five.
Relating his experience, Jomiloju says, “In all, I answered 20 questions, after
answering a question, the computer takes you to another one. And at times, there
will be an instruction to skip the next question. But the programme still directs one
to come back to those questions one had earlier skipped.”
