The roles that teachers play in the life of their students cannot be overemphasized. Kindness or meanness, as in the case of Alex can go a long way in molding a child.
Big Brother Naija season 3, third runner up Alex Unusual has sent a message to her teachers, Mrs. Kiwa, Mrs. Enem, and all those who bullied her, while saying she would end up useless because she was vocal.
Alex Unusual decided to address her teachers and bullies from childhood, letting them know their claims of her amounting to nothing in the future was untrue because she is somebody today.
Born Alexandra Amuchechukwu Asogwa, Alex Unusual is also a model, compere and actress. She is also known for her roles in Nollywood’s Merry Men 2, Fate of Alakada and Nucleus.
Today, Alex Unusual is still vocal but has achieved quite a lot on her own as a young lady. She wrote in the post:
“A message to all my teachers/ bullies that said I’ll end up useless because I was that one student to speak to when everyone was scared to do so.
Back In the old days, you didn’t believe, Now I’m so flashy.Not just me, check out many other children that you were mean to. Mrs Kiwa….. , Mrs Enem……. If you know the names, congratulations. Rest In Peace to the ones we’ve lost.
Thanks for your troubles and wickedness. It made me who I am today and will still make me a thousand folds bigger. I only wish all teachers understand the benefits of being nice.
To those that look down on people now, say mean things and underestimate people, you never know tomorrow. We all still have a lot of progress coming our way.
To the teachers that use words like “you can never be useful, useless child” e.t.c. on students, please desist from your evil ways.”
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls award-winning afrobeats singer, David Adeleke aka Davido revealed his grades were very bad in school, so his teachers always told him, he’d never amount to anything in life.
The 30BG boss while reflecting on his childhood, career, and how he started singing at age 16 had this to say:
“I know how bad my grades were. In school, I was like the most unlikely to succeed type of student. My French teacher told me I won’t be anything in this life. I won’t lie, I was a bad kid with good intentions. Life is fast, I have been doing this continuously since I was sixteen years old. Off course I have had to cry, not even about losing my friends alone. I cry about different situations. It comes and goes. I cried on my birthday”.
