Renowned clergyman Odumeje has asserted that his intellect surpasses that of many formally educated individuals, drawing on his personal experience to counsel parents on guiding their children in selecting university courses.
During a recent church service, the outspoken pastor encouraged parents to take a deliberate approach when advising their children on academic paths.
He cautioned against allowing youngsters to choose courses randomly or simply opting for easier programs due to limited university options.
Odumeje highlighted that educational choices should reflect a student’s passion and abilities, rather than being driven by convenience or external pressure.
He noted that, even without a formal academic qualification, his extensive life experience and sharp insight enable him to provide valuable guidance.
The clergyman emphasized that lacking a university degree does not prevent one from helping children make informed decisions about their education.
