Surprised by how fast time flies, all the media personality could say was:

"Eii, so you have completed school," sparking waves of laughter from his daughter's classmates, who were admiring the beautiful family bond.

Netizens allege his daughter completed her junior high school education at Pere Planque, a highly regarded private school in Cape Coast under the administration of the OLA Catholic sisters.

While some social media critics argued that the celebration was premature, given that results are yet to be released, many others defended the gesture. Supporters noted that finishing Junior High School marks the end of a foundational chapter in a young child's academic journey and deserves to be recognised, regardless of the next steps.
