Stowaway Teenager: Group Volunteers To Sponsor His Education by idedan(m): 1:01pm On Aug 28, 2013
De Raufs, a volunteer group extolling the virtues of
Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Governor of Osun State, has
volunteered to sponsor 15-year-old stowaway
teenager, Daniel Oikhena, who hid in the tyre
compartment of Arik Air flight from Benin to Lagos.
In a statement signed by the Director General of the
group, Comrade Amitolu Shittu, the group is ready to
give scholarship to Daniel up to university level and
help him realise his dream of travelling by air
legitimately.
Shittu said: “Genius and ambitious citizen of our
country must not be suffocated on the alter of
political and bureaucratic enforcement. The little
boy’s ambition should be nurtured through
qualitative education, and the group is ready to give
the boy all the necessary support to make his dream
a reality.
“We sincerely willing to offer him the scholarship to
encourage thousands of teenagers who are cerebral
and ambitious. The leaders in Nigeria fail on their
part to see the potential of the little boy. Therefore,
De Raufs takes up the responsibility to save the
future of this great boy and not turning him to
criminal.”




To me, this is a good development. They should take him to school of aviation to become a pilot. And I wonder what he will tell his kids. What's your say?
