School is not for everyone

School is not for everyone - Brymo

Brymo

Nigerian singer Brymo has caused an uproar on Twitter after he advised a fan to drop out of school.

The fan had approached the Down singer for help with paying his school fees, but Brymo had advised him to “drop out and chase your dreams.”

Brymo went further to name himself as one the “finest” Nigerian musicians of all time, and claimed dropping out helped him because just that.

Brymo dropped out of LASU where he was studying Zoology after his sophomore year to pursue a musical career. His hastily decision to quit school was a result of his father not being able to pay his school fees.

While some have agreed with Brymo, many have criticized him for degrading the importance of education. What do you think?

At least I learnt a new word today "advise" , thanks. But school is not for everyone, some of us must provide the content of your textbooks.
