Is this you?
Prof. Ayodele Rotimi Fatubarin names the fights young people face, and shows how to win them.
You are trying. You go to school, you keep your head down, you do what you were taught. And still something keeps pulling you back.
Sometimes it starts at home. Sometimes it is the crowd. Sometimes it is your own choices. Most of the time nobody told you it was coming, so you think the problem is you.
It is not you. They are real battles, and they have names.
What will it cost you to meet the next battle unprepared?
