The “Lapaz Toyota” hitmaker, who was asked about what motivated him to enrol in college, said that his mother’s support and the boredom brought on by the pandemic were the main reasons he decided to return to school.
He said he changed his major from information technology to political science and information studies after enrolling in a bachelor’s programme in information technology. He went on to say that he hoped to collaborate with the UN and use his expertise on a worldwide basis.
“I was bored after COVID. I jumped at the chance to pursue my academic goals because my mother is an avid learner and wanted me to finish my degree. I enrolled at the University of Ghana with the intention of studying for a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, but later changed my mind and decided to study Political Science and Information Studies because I wanted to work for the United Nations.
