The graduate of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, Oludare Alaba who returned his school certificate and demanded a refund of the fees he paid, says he took the action because the education has made no impact on his life.
Alaba is said to be a graduate of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development.
He said his misery was made worse by his inability to feed his wife and kids and respond to the needs of his 90-year-old father who took loans to send him to school.
Oludare said he is an award-winning entertainer but became frustrated by his inability to live a good life despite being a graduate.
He added that he is tempted to do money rituals but did a rethink and would rather be at peace with GOD.
Oludare said: “I returned the certificate because it has no impact on my existence. I asked for a refund of the fees paid in school so I can use it to build my talent and live a meaningful life.
“I am an entertainer and even won the MTN talent hunt award during my service year in 2016.
“I have continued to struggle in life such that the opportunities I am getting is to do money rituals but I don’t want to do such. I want to be useful to Nigeria, my family, myself and to GOD.
“I am married with two kids; my dad is 90 years old, but I continue to borrow money from him rather than give him. He told me that he took loans to fund my education and hasn’t refunded it and cannot continue to borrow money to give me.
“I ask for help in any form. I want to pursue my entertainment career. I don’t want my career wasted.”
