A popular Nigerian On-Air-Personality, Rebecca Oluwafunmilayo Edun, has charged secondary school students, particularly those in Arts Department to remain focused and pursue their dreams with determination in spite of the daunting challenges ahead.
Edun, who is popularly known as Beccablisse, gave the advice when she visited her alma mater, Reagan Memorial Baptist Girls Secondary School as part of activities to mark her birthday and as a way of giving back to the school, which, according to her, helped to shape her into who she is today.
Going down the memory lane during a chat with the students, she recalled her days in the school and the challenges she faced as an Arts student, which included discrimination and bullying. She, however, encouraged the students to be focused and reach for the stars in their journey in life. Radio personality, Bibii Raii, charged the students to be courageous in chasing their dreams and have plans in addition to taking their education seriously.
The excitement of the students became more palpable when Mubarak Bakare stood up to speak, obviously because of his height. Bakare also admonished the girls to believe in themselves, saying: “You can achieve much more than you are thinking at the moment.”
