No excuses for failure, says Ikiotere Ayebatonye Otuma

In an interview published at the beginning of his service year in 2021, Ikiotere said there is no excuse for failure.

He said back then:

“Having a physical deformity should not make you think much. Your life is not over as long as you are mentally stable.
You do not have to make excuses for failure. You have every reason to be who God wants you to be by his grace.
“Even though along the line you will face depression, difficulty and hardship do not let it get to you.
"Other people without physical deformity also feel down at some point in their lives and still come out of it.
"We can too if we put our minds to it. We can achieve anything and everything.”
