Unfortunately,the only place you can get a FORMAL education is through school.


Unfortunately, you are wrong!

School is overrated and too monotonous

knowledge did not start from university,university was meant to be a disseminating point of knowledge. I mean real knowledge not kwekwe

Dude has been getting alot of negative media attention lately:
First it was that he stole "holla at your boy", then, it was rumoured that he was arrested for trying to smuggle drugs into the UK, and now this.
There's nothing wrong with dropping out of school, it will give him more time to concentrate on his music.

Dude actually lifted Se7en's Girls,

This just shows how hypocritical we can be. MOst of the comments here smack of unbridled hatred. How do you hate someone you dont know?? He is dropping from Uni , big deal, Look what the boy has achieved at his age, remeber when you where hos age, what were you doing And you have the guts to call him useless,
Re: Wizkid Drops Out Of School by thetelz(m): 2:46am On Apr 17, 2011
Whats the big opportunity he got eh? Just cos he's making some chin chin cash,appealing to some small boys and girls doesn't mean he's gonna be a great musician. Music is like a candle,can blow off anytime. By the way,this guy can't properly pronounce 'ask' at 200L and he wants to drop out of school.lmao

Re: Wizkid Drops Out Of School by prodam(m): 8:03am On Apr 17, 2011
some said what has he made so far? to be sincere if he had not made a landmark, the thread wouldn't have been this long,
2ndly, dropping out of school is no new thing among great people of today, bill gate, zuckenberg, 2face(i would appreciate ore examples)

my advise for him is: think about it very well, whether drop out will favor u, and if it is "compulsory drop out" as some thinks, then leave the academia and go to the zanga
Re: Wizkid Drops Out Of School by favouredjb(f): 9:53am On Apr 17, 2011
i hope he deferred and didnt drop out totally,cos education is key

That is what a serious-minded person would have done.dropping out entirely shows that he has lost his focus.I'm still wondering how he will end up if his next album doesn't make a hit.
Re: Wizkid Drops Out Of School by fstranger5: 10:25am On Apr 17, 2011
^^^^

What focus?

Education is a means to an end. the end here is MONEY.

Why waste time going to school when the degree would be useless.

You keep talking about education as if it were something more than just a 'pali'

Do you yourself have a Ph.D ?

A first degree is ok to set you rolling in Nigeria.too bad for whizkid to end up as a school cert holder.

That is if your focus is to slave away your future for the government or a private company on a salary basis.


To be a musician, he does not need any first degree. All he needs is talent, which he seems to have plenty of.

KSA is now a professor in OAU, despite not completing secondary school.

Does any course in that school have an accreditation? Which one be Leed University?

Did KSA become professor in his 20s?

Its just a matter of time before they become professors.

Are you serious ? In this modern age ? If whizkid can drop out,what makes you think he's going to end up as a professor ?
During the time of Ksa,there were hip hop musicians,how many of them are professors today ? I can bet that Timaya and Terry G even whizkid can never become professors in their life .

No one ever thought KSA was going to be a professor, at least not at OAU.
As for Whizkid, at this stage, he seems to be more talented than KSA. So the odds of him ending up as a professor is pretty good. BTW, becoming a professor is not the height of success. He could be the next Sean Combs, a Howard drop out or become the next Lil Wayne. My point is that for him to be successful in life, he does not need a college degree at all. As a matter of fact, for his line of work, it would have been a mistake on his part.

So there was hip-hop in the 60s? hmmm, you seem to be more deluded than I actually thought

A lot of ediots like you said the same thing about KSA when he was first starting. They said he wasnt going to amount to anything, well, the rest is now history.

Just watch as the young man flourish and maybe employ you, and your Nassarawa State University 'pali'. Be nice to him. Chances are you’ll end up working for him

Hypocrisy (insincerity by virtue of pretending to have qualities or beliefs that you do not really have) ?

If you have any talent,will you drop out too ?

Absolutely!

It would have been a stupiddd idea to continue. Well, people, drop out of regular school for home-schooling when regular schooling doesnt meet their needs.

He has a talent that is best harnessed somewhere else, not at Leads University. Steve Jobs dropped out of college cos he felt it was a waste. DBanj is doing well, despite dropping out from LASU.
Eldee that stayed in school, how is he faring? He is not having it as good as Dbanj or is he?

Re: Wizkid Drops Out Of School by slowpoison(m): 1:28pm On Apr 17, 2011
the most glaring & obvious case of hypocracy in the universe is Muhammadu Baha'i. My reason are
He overthrew the 2nd republic democratic government of Alhaji Shehu Shagari
He now wants to be called Alhaji rather than General  
The man who used to be a hard man when he forged himself on Nigeria theaterically turned into  a soft wimp crying like a newly orphaned child
now the disciplined man lied that planes flew in the night printers worked overnight to produce ballot papers to rig the election
He says that he will not go to court but his party may go to court the unresolved issue is will he accept the court verdict if it favors him
the ones he did while in power will be listed later
