On being a teacher

“My teacher Mrs LATIFAT GANIU BAMGBOSE gingered my love the teaching profession, through her various motherly cares and mentoring skills despite been a street rice seller in Ijora Oloye.”

Sincerely speaking, you worth more than this because we are witness to what they give to the winners in the nonsense they call BBNAIJA, when will our so-called leaders wake up from their slumber, enough of eulogizing fornicators, if they give 5:000,000 each to the best teacher in each district, I don’t believe it’s too much…”
