I went to a highly competitive secondary school back in the days.
This private school had a lot of intelligent young boys and girls and there was this boy name withheld that was always coming out top in class.
There was this other girl giving him a chase for who comes out top in the class too as they were both extremely intelligent and to me I will say they were geniuses as they were so so good.
Me I wasn't doing too badly too but that guy was in another class of his own.
He was cool ,gentle and focused and I knew the future was going to be very bright for him academically.
I met him one day and asked him how he does his thing that makes him academically sound and he laughed and told me that during the holidays, he makes sure he reads ahead what will be thought in the next session and when session starts he just goes to class and assimilate what the teacher is teaching.
To cut the long story short,this guy finished his university in flying colours reading Biochemistry and got a job in the banking sector.
At just 22 years of age, he was already a manager in one of the branches of the bank and was doing very well.
The next thing I heard was that he has defrauded the bank of more than 500 million naira and has gone missing without a trace.
Till this day he has not been seen with no trace.
I still wonder what might have happened to this intelligent young man that made him to defraud a bank at such a young age and soil his name for life just because of money.
This is someone with such intelligence can create a money spinning software that can become a global brand.
It still baffles me till this day.
Some of our friends that attended that secondary school told me he was running deals with some yahoo guys that also attended the school and those guys might have influenced him.
Moral of the story is that people can change their character within a twinkle of an eye.
