Delving into her past, particularly her education, the Ebesesa hitmaker noted that she had always known herself to be a dull student and was only interested in school activities involving singing, praying, and running errands for teachers.

She thus foresaw her result would not be favourable hence the decision to forego it when it got released.

"I reached JHS, but it’s not that I stopped; I wrote BECE, but I didn’t go for the results,” Obaapa Christy told the host.

When asked if she had passed the exams, the singer responded:

“I didn’t even go for it to see whether I passed or not because I foresaw that I wouldn’t pass.”

Now an acclaimed gospel musician with numerous hit songs, Obaapa Christy revealed that she knew academic pursuits were not her strength and instead focused her efforts on developing her musical talents.
