  Why I facilitated NDDC projects – Orji Kalu

Nigerian Afropop singer, Joseph Akinwale Akinfenwa popularly known as Joeboy, has narrated how his former classmates that embarrassed him for not paying school fees are trying to reach out to him now.

The singer urged schools in Nigeria to stop embarrassing students for not paying their terminal tuition fees, he made the appeal during an interview with journalist and broadcaster, Chude Jideonwo, adding that they also need to stop flogging students for the same reason.

Joeboy also recalled how he was embarrassed in secondary school because he was known as the student who could not pay his tuition.

 

 

“Some Challenges on the way, maybe you fail some exams, maybe you owe school fees. Like there was one part where it was tuition fees, yea. That thing was so embarrassing, I need to say this on camera to schools. I don’t know whether they still do it but if a child owes school fees, don’t call the child out and say you’re owing school fees, just tell the child not to come to school.

 

There’s one other thing they used to do, they used to flog the child for not paying school fees. The child doesn’t have money now, so I need to put that on camera for anybody that owns a school who is watching this, do not embarrass the child because he is owing school fees.

 

So it was really embarrassing for me at that point because I think it affected my esteem too at that point because, I remember one incident, I was in JS3 because they used to come to this class to name people that owe tuition fees.

While reacting to Joeboy, Solomon Olisaemaka Akam commented that;

Such is life.People will dirty your name because you have nothing but will come back on their kness begging when they see you in glory.I pray for everyone reading this now, ” may your own situation change for good in Jesus name”

Temitope Oladukun Omotosho has commented that life is turn by turn, and no condition is permanent for everyone

Her words: 

Life is a dice 50/50 and it hasn’t stopped rolling. Whatever God has placed in your heart to do for them, do so. Not treating them how they treat you is what isn’t stopping your blessings. God bless you JoeBoy Pondek🤗🤗

Nobody will help you when you’re down but will come around you when you’re made. It’s a very bad omen in Nigeria to neglect people when they are struggling.
