In Ghana we do not have the luxury for careless show offs. If Delay is really trying to teach people who look up to her that school is a waste a time, then we should be disappointed in her. If she really went to school she must know that it is school that taught her the valuable skills that is helping her to survive. What she should have said that other opportunities came her way luckily and as a result she quit school. she should than her stars for being this successful otherwise she would be needing her certificates for future jobs. She should stop being a braggart, it does not suit her.

Success in life has nothing to do with getting an F-grade in a course or having certificates.

Many people like yourself are simply insecure about what you know is nothing but being academically inclined, and without real skill in life.

Stop hating. Delay is just voicing an opinion that applies to her.

Writing exams and passing exams are two different things. The fact is she was there alright but how regular was she attendihg lectures? How many assignments didn't she submit? What grades did she obtain? If she were making A in chains and was heading for 1st class, knowing who she is, she would flaunted her transcript on national tv. The truth is SHE NO SEE TOP TO PROOF THE POINT SHE WANTED TO!!!

As a public figure with so much following, I think that her comments may encourage others to quite education. For me Delay could have presented this better.

People with talents do not need school. They are taught by God to create jobs. People who do not know their talent go to school to learn how to maintain what the talented people have done and create wealth out of it.

How can a "supposed" role model publicly say schooling is waste of time? well no wonder Delay speaks English without confidence.the fact that you are an entrepreneur doesn't mean u don't need education All that women know is to showcase their boobs etc. they really have a long way to go.

Degrees are largely a WASTE OF TIME.

1. Literacy;

These three promote real wisdom in order to apply oneself in any field.

As well, on-the-job experience is good for the soul that wants to advance in life.

university drop outs. Education is important but Ghana education to be precise is useless because all the students do is memorize and forget after. We need technical skills and practical. Delay is a good business woman and Im glad she realized it faster to peruse what she actually wanted to do. That is called entrepreneurship. School is not for everyone. many business men and women did not go to university.

Delay went to university for heaven sakes. The only difference is she did not finish. Most university classes are on Powerpoint with teachers just reading it. You can learn anything you want nowadays without going to university. All one need is the ability to communicate and write and Delay already has that so for her to pursue something else and later on giving her opinion does mean she doesn't know the importance of education. I think Ghanaians have comprehension problems. The woman has been successful in what he does.
