@igbinhenry: Imagine being a boy just for 7 years and you’re being settled with 15M and a shop to start your own business abd family life. While a graduate spend 4/5 years in school then another 1 years for NYSC totalling 5/6 years without strike ooo then all the expenses incurred with tuition’s, rents and upkeep you’re almost spending over 5M depending on the University and after all said and done you do be job hunting without hope and then go back to learn a hand work for survival. So which is better most esp for a Man? Learning trade or going for higher eduction? Don’t forget schooling can be achieved even after you’re already in business ooo please guys retweets for learning trades and likes for going to university
@forbcyril: My only concern is he mentioning the amount for safety of the boy, but beside that he’s a good man who appreciate the contribution of the boy to his business and wealth also to encourage other apprentice out there.
@samuelosondu: This is so beautiful to watch. Congratulations to him, I pray God grants him success in his own path.
@echoes: He is someone that appreciate effort, God will bless him richly, and that boy will Excel in his new establishment, God protect and provide their needs, helping hands I wish for them.
