A female secondary school student has set the internet abuzz by disclosing that Big Brother Naija star, Tolanibaj is her role model.
Nigerian teacher and life coach, Chike, was interviewing her alongside two of her classmates about who their role models are and what their career choice is.
In a video making the rounds online, one said she wants to be a engineer and the person she wishes to be like is popular singer, Yemi Alade.
The second girl said her role model is her pastor and she wants to be a lawyer, while the third mentioned Tolanibaj as her role model, but disclosed that she wishes to become a medical doctor.
“I want to be a medical doctor, my role model is Tolanibaj,” the trending girl said.
Giving them some words of advice about their choices, Chike said their role models are opposite of what they want to become in the future and they need to change that.
He explained that he has no problems with the people they mentioned as role models, but that their choice should be in the field of study which they intend to focus on so that it will inspire them towards becoming their heart desire.

@Selfmadeceleb3; This is why they need to stop all the ex bbnaija housemates from PODCASTS and social media. Bad influence
@paulozma222; I’m very sure they chose those role models just for this content. They are obviously trying to pass a message with this.
@arthurjerome247; It’s only in Nigeria that students have role models that are different from their career prospects. Something is fundamentally wrong in our society. We’re in deep trouble.
@Capolutiti; The young girl parents that choose Tolani Baj as her role model, her parents needs to be jailed.
