'Failure is the Mother of Success'
Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine....for instance 10 paracetamol at once.....or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
FROM 'F IN CHAINS" TO A LOUD HORN BLOWING OXFORD LECTURER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ASK AKUFO ADDO!
ASK BRYAN ACHEAMPONG!
We need such inspirational stories for our children and Youths. God bless you for sharing Dr Assiamah.
Maybe it's the way it's written but I still don't see how you'll make poor grades and be admitted to KNUST. Did he rewrite the exam? All this story is telling me is that life rewards laziness and no effort.
That's what I thought, too. But you know, everything is possible in Ghana...and everywhere, for that matter.
A Nigerian University lecturer once asked; "Why is it all the students who perform very poorly academically, do s ...

Tasmin devil, who forced you to read it? Nonsense. You will die in your enviness. Ofui
After dealing with students over 30 years, I know some students are late developers.When they understand where they are and what is going on, then the sky is the limit.
You know what and how education is about.
Thank you. Not everyone develops an interest in education in their early years.
Attainment in education is very different for everyone.
Jesus is the good Shepherd who laid down His life for us.
Jesus is the resurrection and the life.
Seek Jesus and you will live again.
Hope the slay queens and those boys playing bet in ghana learn from it
ANOTHER DOCTOR?!!!
Yes Ghana needs them. The only thing is that they should move out of the classroom and create things in real life.
That is why in the UK today, there are Professional PhDs.
Well done bro!!!
It was not a failure rather an upset. Big up!
So how did he gain admission at KNUST with these E & F in chain results?
Did he better them by re-writing them through Nov/Dec or gain admission through connection because everything is possible in Ghana.
Great question! I’m wondering too. How did he gain admission with those chains??? Can he explain so that people will know how to navigate such things? One thing I don’t like about Ghanaian journalists: they don’t ask th ...

He wrote Nov/Dec which he excelled in all subjects and gained admission to KNUST to read economics
Is that what he told you? At least you didn't get this from the article. In fact, it's actually a contradiction to what's stated here.
This tells you our education system is very bad and needs total overhaul. How come those who fail in Ghana excel abroad? A friend of mine is a typical example. We thought he doesn't ' know book' as we normally say , but he is ...

How many House, Car, and Business does he has if I may ask ? Success is measured in Ghana by the aforementioned. Teaching students abroad is not an achievement worthy of boasting. Your nation must benefit as well from your "s ...

This is sheer arrogance! Being a lecturer does not make you successful brother. There are people with worst experience as you have, doing bigger things but they don’t talk.
You're jealous. Stop that behavior
Greatness. Go high as you have gained the platform. It's very hard to learn in Ghana to understand well than to learn in Europe or America

They're not impressed because of his last name, They always mistakenly think PhD should only be attached to their names, You've seen what a 4 in chains boy from chichibong has done ? Go figure.
CLEANINGNESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS...... BELIEVE AND KEEP THE ENVIRONMENT CLEAN
KEEP KEEP KEEP THE ENVIRONMENT CLEAN
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
DO NOT LITTER
DO NOT LITTER
DO NOT LITTER GOD BLESS.
Amazing!
It’s all the Grace of God. “Not by might nor power but by my Spirit sayeth the Lord of Host.”
Let action speaks more than words.
Great story for those struggling to know they can make it.
To God, nothing is impossible. Trust God and put your mind to whatever you think or dream of. In particular,always aim at pleasing God and honourng
Him.
Congratulations to Dr George Asiamah!
