Kwame Kyei reacted:
"The fact that guy had 40 doesn’t mean he is not good. If you listen to the mother the child wants to do technical engineering program or some STEM. Meaning the child is a machine oriented person. After 3yrs Put the machines down and you will see the wonders he will do."

"Disorganized ah what is all this just because of free SHS pprrrr any free thing comes with easy problems."
