A Nigerian man identified as Temitope Akande has today shared photos of the small bookshop which his parents used to train him and see him through life.
The man who is now a graduate of Harvard University shared the inspiring story on Instagram: "I did not come from a wealthy family but still made it. This is because he just graduated from Harvard with two degrees.
In his words: "This bookstore behind us practically raised me. It made sure we didn't starve."
Parents are the best!
He received his first Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA) from Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. After that, he then proceeded to the Harvard Kennedy School, Cambridge, Massachusetts, the United States to bag his Master’s Degree in public administration (MPA).
