Billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola has made an intriguing revelation.

He said: “I did not finish secondary school. My father wanted me to go to university like my siblings, but I was never good in school. I kept failing exams, repeating classes, and at some point, I knew school was not for me. I realised I was not as smart as many of my siblings.”

“I dropped out and asked my father to give me a business to handle. He put me in charge of his printing press. Later, I asked him to make me the sales representative so I could earn 15% commission on every client I brought in. My father’s company was very big, one of the best in Nigeria, with so many loyal clients.”

“I decided to brand and market it well, attracting more customers and earning my 15% commission. With that income, I built my own company and created my path to becoming a billionaire.”

“My story proves you don’t need a degree to succeed in life. If you are determined and consistent, you can also achieve greatness.”
