When he asked the boy if he would like to continue school, the kid emotionally said yes. @PrinceCokers said he could sense the boy's passion for education.
Combining school with apprenticeship
The man agreed to foot the boy's school fees as he charged his boss to look for a school around their shop. The plan was for him to go to school and return to the workshop every afternoon.
The kid made the CEO's effort worthwhile as he took the first position in his class. The man said:
"Don't wait till you become a billionaire before you start that thing God put into your mind!"
Speaking with Legit.ng, the kind man spoke about his commitment towards the boy's education. In his words:
"Joseph Suru is the boy’s name and I have no intention to stop his education any time soon. Although he is not the only one, I have about 12 children on my list who are under sponsorship. Part attend public school while another part attend private schools. They are all less privileged children."
