AY give reasons why he spend 9 years in the university.
Nigerian Comedian, Ayo Makun, AKA AY has given reason why he spent
nine years in the University.
The
Delta State University graduate said accepting the responsibility of taking
care of his younger ones delayed his university education.
According
to him, being a big brother to his siblings after they lost their parents kept
him in school for nine years.
AY
told Goldmynetv ” In December 1999 when my dad passed, It was difficult to take
over his position as the first son. It became even more difficult when my mum
decided to join him in no time.
”Embracing
the responsibilities of taking care of my four sisters and two baby brothers wasn’t
the best message to preach to a waiting landlord whose rent must be paid in due
time. The combination of being a big brother and father came with a price that
kept me in Delta State University for 9 years as a student.”
”Apart
from the non-negotiable Christian upbringing from my parents, my dad always
drilled me, and made me tough. He taught me how to be a strong independent Youngman.
How to carry my siblings along as a leader of purpose. Though it wasn’t an easy
journey for me or any of my younger ones, as we all struggled together. But
hope was like the sun, which casts the shadows of our burden behind us.
”Humility
is the true key to succeed in life. Eradicate every form of arrogance and
self-indulging trap that will halt your blessings from God. See you at the top.
