There has never been a time as exciting as this in the African and Nigerian Entertainment scene. A leading Role model for young people is M.J Ekeinde , superstar actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde's first son.

Well done to him. I am sure having a parent in the media spotlight was HIS inspiration.
Some months ago we had the very young lady who achieved a first class in medicine and we have seen young Nigerians EXCELLING all over the world.
Kudos to their PARENTS.
Agreed… But please don’t put this kid down
Parental guidance and influence are very important We all cannot be engineers, lawyers, doctors, accountants and so on and so forth. Tradesmen and tradeswomen are equally important in any economy.
One thing is clear… ….I don’t see this boy ending up being a criminal. After all Bill Gates the richest man in the world did not even finish or graduate from any university ....likewise Larry Ellison of Oracle (Ifa) and so on.
We have millions of PhDs in Nigeria and nothing achieved.
