Sh said: “I never gave room for distractions. One, I did not get involved in any amorous affair with the opposite sex. Again, I developed a workable reading time table for myself; and I kept to it. My parents advised me to avoid peer presure but have a strong relationship with God and they provided all I needed to succeed in my academics because they know the importance of education.”
