Nollywood actor, Samuel Ajibola, also known as Spiff, has revealed how Nollywood actress Helen Paul and former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, had motivated his Master’s Degree.
The actor, who recently completed his Master’s Degree, in an interview with Saturday Beats, spoke about how Obasanjo was his mentor.
Ajibola said Helen Paul was his senior in school and she had motivated him to complete his studies.
He said, “Achieving this goal means a lot to me as it had been a dream I planned to achieve since primary school.
“I graduated from the university in 2012, so this took me almost a decade to achieve because I started working on The Johnsons around then.
“Dr Helen (Paul) has always been a big sister to me in the industry. We both attended the University of Lagos but we weren’t acquainted then.
“She motivated me to finally begin the process and pointed me in the right direction. Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, on the other hand, has been a mentor to me in leadership.
“His encouragement was instrumental to me furthering my education as I only had a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science.”
He bagged a Master’s degree in Public Administration from the Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo State.
