Don't waste your time. I doubt people understand the difference. They think he attended classes and sat for exams.

something I learnt from his life




pursue your dreams, even if it costs you your degree...


some degrees are even hindering people from achieving success
Tell this one to ur nigerian parents and wake up on a hospital bed the next morning, abi u want ppl to laugh at them for parenting a dropout, or u dont want them to brag that their son is a graduate in the midst of their friends?
Unfortunately most nigerians tie success to degree. And can stuggle in school for years sometimes in a course they have no interest in. All for a degree.
Degrees are good but aint no guarantee of success especially

Btw d degree is honorary sha

Mehn... I too like this guy. Very simple. Just do your thing, no much noise while at it. May God give me the wisdom to be this simple when I become a billionaire.

Based on research, we know this is NOT true for or applicable to Nigerians.

Nigerians LOVE their degrees. They LOVE TO acquire and amass degrees. It is a well-known fact.

No such thing as dreams.

Some Nigerians will say pursue your dreams before a degree. Kpele, the likes of Seun and Linda Ikeji are one in a million. It worked for them but might not work for you. As for Mark Zuckerberg, he's a citizen of a country that has a working system, unlike Nigeria.
Any dream u have will definitely work out if u give it all it takes. So drop that your old school mentality and don't discourage anyone that wants to pursue his or her dreams before getting a degree. Degree prepares u to work for people. That is degree mentality. If u have a million or a billion dollar idea, please don't dull yourself with a degree.

How many Nigerians come up with a Billion dollar idea, and it actualises without a degree?. If you could pursue both simultaneously, then good. But if you go solely in for your dreams there's a probability that you might not make it.

The degree is for you to present something when an opportunity shows up.

He wasn't studying recently, it's a honorary degree, it's awarded by a university to a deserving person even when the person does not pass through the formal University process

This is why I like the guys in Onitsha, they pursue their businesses, afterwards come back to get the certificate through NOUN or part-time program as back up.

Well, Dangote Et al are citizens of a country that has no working system yet they succeed. And Yh what worked for A as an entrepreneur might not work for B, so also what worked for A using certificate might not work for B. You just gotta try, and pls drop ur white collar job and that mentality of building another man's dreams.

He copied Gates.

When Bill was awarded a honorary degree at Harvard, he said, "Dad, I always told you I''dcome back to get my degree".

Nice one, though.
