As A Child Then, What Was Your Dream Profession And What Are You Today? by Bekeey: 8:39am On May 01, 2020
During our primary and secondary school days, every child mostly has it in common to become neither a doctor, lawyer and Engineer. That was three major commonly known professions then. Can you share what was passion behind this?

Mine goes this way...

For me while growing up, I wanted to become a Lawyer, probably because I loved talking and everyone used to Call me barrister. There was also a family friend Lawyer I looked up to then

Then Jamb jammed me and I ended up studying political Science and the rest is history.

Wanted to be an Engineer, but in secondary school I didn't like physics. I switched.

Granted I love practicing medicine but I still miss studying about rocks, the atmosphere and what lies beneath the earth and above the skies. Am hoping I will one day get a second masters there if it's possible even if it's for knowledge sake. �
