“There will be many paths out there as you step into the world, never be afraid to try, never be afraid of failure, every great success usually has stories of many failures.
Don’t let the past tie you down, your past is history, it is not your destiny, you will always be better tomorrow than you were today.”
— Prof. Yemi Osinbajo
