What is the next step?

She will be furthering by doing her Masters degree after her youth corps service, and getting a good job, and a life of her own.

I will like to seize this opportunity to beg our government, though they are trying, but we need to do more, there are many graduates just roaming the streets, no job, no skills, so it’s very sad, after so much efforts and sacrifice they put in their studies.

Though I didn't have this opportunity while I was growing up. I made up my mind to assist my children to achieve their aims. She's 22 now, as for me I dropped out of school due to lack of fund, but since when I became established as an entertainer, I furthered my studies, which has really helped me.

Any regret that none of your children is following your footstep?

Not at all, I believe everybody has their own destiny. Although, my grandfather was a musician, my father was also a musician and here I am too. Nobody forced me to do what I am doing right now, so for my children, it’s their choice, mine is just to support and guide them morally.
