The student has since received help from Kopa Respect who set out to help him in his determination to be a graduate.

It all started when the student used his Okada bike to pick Kopa Respect and he refused to pay, in his well-known prank style of always claiming he can't pay for services as an NYSC member.

The young man said he was riding an Okada to support himself since he has no one to support him.

Kopa Respect said:

"It's easy to judge people as selfish just because they refuse to part with their money, no matter how little. But behind every decision, there's a story. Here is a fighter- a young man navigating an uncertain system, striving to put himself through school by riding a commercial bike. His struggle isn't about greed; it's about survival and determination.
"Dear Nigerian Government. working hard to earn an education is one thing; facing the uncertainty of life after graduation is another. When a system offers no clear path, what becomes of those who sacrificed everything for a degree. Here is a fighter-riding a commercial bike just to put himself through school, determined to secure a better future. But beyond the classroom lies an even bigger challenge: what does the system have in store for him after graduation?"
