Despite not making waves academically, Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa is certainly an inspiration to thousands of youths across the country with his endless string of hit songs and his ‘grass to grace’ story.
Timaya made sure to drop this titbit during his eclectic
performance at the 3 stage of Star Music Trek which
held in Uyo on April 12 2014.
“Education is not for me”, the hit artiste confessed, “It is important YES but not for me”
“I scored 17 in JAMB, That’s when I gave up. I don’t have the brain for education but for those of you who do please do it its good.” He further stressed.
No one can dispute that the massively popular Niger
Delta star is still so passionate about education or at
least strongly encourages others to have it.
It’s thrilling to note too that despite this ‘lack’, he has
risen to become one of the most influential artistes in
the country today who consistently showcases his
performances with an enduring message to young
people to always harness their talent and exploit it.
…Would you say Timaya failed JAMB woefully?
