The
comedian, AY shared the heartbreaking but inspiring post of how the
death of his parents caused him to spend 9 years in the university.
Read the story below
In December 1999 when my dad passed, It was difficult to take over his
position as the first son. It became even more difficult when my mum
decided to join him in no time.
Embracing the reponsibilities of taking care of my four sisters and two
baby brothers wasn't the best message to preach to a waiting landlord
whose rent must be paid in due time. The combination of being a big
brother and father came with a price that kept me in Delta State
University for 9 years as a student.
Apart from the
non-negotiable Christian upbringing from my parents, my dad always
drilled me, and made me tough. He taught me how to be a strong
independent youngman. How to carry my siblings along as a leader of
purpose. Though it wasn't an easy journey for me or any of my younger
ones, as we all struggled together. But hope was like the sun, which
casts the shadows of our burden behind us.
I never stopped dreaming
that one day our story would change and take each and everyone of us
towards the direction of success. Apart from thanking God for all He has
done for me as successful comedian, this is just my way of also saying
"I AM PROUD" of my baby brothers @lanremakun of Lanre Makun Events and
@yomicasual (the Fashion Designer) for embracing and indulging the paths
that is beginning to position them as individual brands in their
respective endeavours.
Above all, you guys must bear in mind that the only way to continue the journey to success, is to remain focused.
Humility
is the true key to succeed in life. Eradicate every form of arrogance
and self-indulging trap that will halt your blessings from God. See you
at the top.
My name is not Ben Bruce, but I just want to share
