My Name is
Mercy
Mercy
Both of Mercy’s parents are deceased. She has brothers and sisters who are older, impoverished, and unable to care for her. Social Welfare determined that she would benefit from the care of the Rafiki Foundation and so she was placed at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2004. Mercy has completed her studies at the Rafiki School. She will be taking three college entrance exams this fall. Several teachers take turns prepping the graduates for the WAEC (West Africa Examination), NECO (Nigeria Examination), and JAMB (university entrance exam). Excellent marks are required on each exam to be accepted into a university. She wants to go to the University of Jos.
