BBTitans Star Yvonne discloses expulsion from University in 3rd year

Yvonne Godswill Awanga, popularly known as a finalist from Big Brother Titans (BBTitans), has recently opened up about being expelled from the university during her third year.

The entrepreneur shared details of her experience during a recent interview with media personality Hero Daniels.

According to Yvonne, she was rusticated from the university due to a fight, and her mother was furious with her, while her father understood the situation.

She recalled the challenging time and the aftermath of the expulsion, stating that she had to rewrite the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination and apply for admission to another university to start her studies all over again.

Yvonne further revealed that by the time she gained admission into a new institution, her former coursemates at the previous university had already become graduates.

Despite the setback, she expressed that she could have easily bought a certificate without re-enrolling, but she chose to go through the process and experience the life of being a student again.

Yvonne Godswill Awanga gained popularity as a finalist on the popular Nigerian reality TV show, Big Brother Titans.

Yvonne said; “I was involved in a fight. It was a messy situation. And I was in my third year. Not like it was an academic issue so you can imagine that kind of clumsy stup*d thing that will get you kicked out of school.

“My mom was so mad at me. She was just like ‘You’ve joined bad gang.’ It was crazy! I did deliverance [in the church] because she thought something was wrong with me.

“Just my dad understood. You know lion no dey born goat. He was like ‘What’s your plan?’. I was like ‘I want to go back to school’. He was like ‘okay’. I had to write JAMB because I was rusticated. So, I had to like start all over again.

“By the time I got into year one, my mates [at my former school] had graduated. I was sad. I was depressed. I was so bad that the next school I got to I couldn’t really bond with people because I felt like I was the mama of the class. I’m like three to four years older than the people in my class.”

Her candid revelation about her expulsion from the university and her determination to start afresh serves as an inspiration to others who may have faced challenges or setbacks in their educational journey.
