What a remarkable feat. At the age of 17 in Nigeria, you are still in secondary school preparing for WAEC and NECO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnhbR7taXTs 41 Likes 8 Shares |

When our so called legislators are still arguing to allow or not to allow a below 18yrs old to be in the university? whereas many of them have already made so many pubescent girls or even younger ones s*xualy active... Poor education in Nigeria is robbing off in all facets already, giving birth to poorly trained leaders... 95 Likes 4 Shares |

Where one is born also affect how his or her destiny takes shape. If is not with the educational system who have to battle with, it will be one minister who believe that at age 16years your not mature enough for academic pressure, where as in the said minister state at age 15years your mature to be married. Everyone is design and created in a special way to fulfilled his/her destiny, with unique gifts and talents to excel in different fields of life. Just because you think I can't handle academic pressure doesn't mean that there other pressure in life I can't handle. Me at age 16 I had the most high profile target neutralized, at 16 I was the last person to leave Mubi when it was over taken by extremies... Plenty archivement I can't mention I complete at 16years. Now my goal is to become the youngest general in the armed forces of Nigeria. 2 Likes |
