Inspiring post

In a post sighted on his Facebook page, he delivered the inspirational message to any ''self-doubting son or daughter to inspire her or him to work harder and smarter to reach greater heights, said Richard Dela Sky.

''And when someone tells you that it is not possible for poor and or black village boys/girls, who are presently attending deprived early schools, to take on the rest of the world and compete at the highest level, please humbly rebuff him or her. With dedicated, hard and smart work backed by God’s grace and favour, it is POSSIBLE to excel!'' he added.

The outspoken broadcaster emphasised that:

''I know because I am a living witness, just like some other remarkable African students before me'' and urged people who are better positioned in society to offer help to brilliant but needy students struggling to pay their fees.
