Lil Win's mother speaks about son's childhood

In an interview with Lil Win's pastor, Stephen Adom Kyei Duah's broadcast station, Second Chance TV, Madam Adwoa Offe recounted how her son was a stubborn individual who caused trouble whenever he left their home.

Lil Win's mother noted that despite enrolling the actor into an educational institution, he quit and refused to return even though he received severe punishment for his disobedience.

She said:

"He (Lil Win) was worrisome when he was growing up. He fought people whenever he went outside to play. I received many complaints about him hurting other people. I used to apologise a lot until he grew up a bit."

"He told me he wanted to be a shoemaker. I enrolled him in a school, and he quit when he reached primary six. He told me he would not go to school again. I would call his teachers to get him and punish him, but he did not change his mind. He used to go to school and do comedic stuff before returning home."
