Roni Nicol said due to the young man’s persistence, he asked him to come to his office for a discussion and possible employment. However, he did not have a CV but came with his results from the West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

“For almost 2 years now, a young boy (20 years old) has been asking me for a job even as a cleaner. Finally, I invited him to my office and asked for his CV. He didn't have a CV but only his WASSCE results.”

Roni Nicol said upon further questioning; he realised the young man completed Senior High School in 2021 and could not afford to further his education despite his good results.

“In fact, looking at his results, I will assist him to further his education, it just doesn't make sense to employ him. He has been home since 2021 and wanted to work because he couldn't afford to go to university.”
