When Aminat Olurode completed a Banking and Finance programme from The Polytechnic, Ibadan, Oyo State, her prayer was to get a job in one of the banks and the prayer was answered when she was employed by one of the commercial banks in the country. She was deployed to the Ogbomoso branch of the bank and looking forward to a fulfilling and rewarding career in the banking industry.
As she was progressing at her workplace, she was hoping to get married and begin to raise her own family. But the dreams came crashing like a pack of cards when she was knocked down by a sport utility vehicle vehich suffered a break failure. Olurode had travelled to Ibadan from Ogbomoso to attend the marriage introduction of her friend. She was to be one of the bridesmaids of her friend and the introduction was the first step.
