Multiple award-winning Ghanaian musician and songwriter, Kofi Kinaata has disclosed that his class four teacher cried many times because of his stubbornness and dislike for school.
The ‘Susuka’ hitmaker disclosed that irrespective of that, his teacher was steadfast in ensuring that he didn’t take the path of destruction.
Kinaata made the revelation in the comment section of a post by actress Lydia Forson on Facebook recently to celebrate the impact of teachers in the various stages of her life.
Lydia Forson admitted that even though there were a number of bad nuts among the teachers, the good outdid the bad.
She challenged her followers to similarly appreciate their best teachers and Kinaata used the chance to appreciate his class four teacher.
“I remember my class 4 teacher used to cry several times because I was very troublesome and truant. One day she took me out to see a nice building in the neighborhood and ask me if I would like to build a nice house like this.”
“I answered “yes” and she told me the owner of the house was very obedient, paid attention in class, never worried his teacher, never fought in class and was very smart. Then she showed me a dirty house of one notorious person in our neighborhood and asked which of the two houses I would love to build in future.”
“I still answered the first one and she said the person who lives inside never paid attention in class and was behaving like me when he was my age so if I want to be a bigger person in future, I should take everything she teaches me serious. Her advice changed my perspective on a lot of things(sic),” he shared on Facebook.
