When asked if she is financially prepared to pay for her tertiary education, she stated that she cannot, owing to her economically disadvantaged background. The pair did not discuss the teenager's parents.
''I studied General Arts. I want to study computer science ... Everything is about technology now,'' she told Kwahu Ambassador.
Afriyie lamented she lacked the financial resources to fund her studies at the university, so she called on public support.
