Thanks to Tuko and presenter. The story is telling, explicit and a lesson to young people. 5 minutes wrong decision appetised by greed led to 3i years ie 24×60×31×12×31 =16.606.080 minutes lost at young, youth, productive life. What a great story. I suggest he must not give up and l think he ought to try get a job as a counsel in prison and youth management institutes to create awareness of young people in early stages of life from making wrong decisions leading to life destruction and waste. Get married for your late parents love for you 💕 and 🙏 make the best of good 👍 life. You are young,energetic and intelligent. God loves you and has something for you.
