Many persons have said she should have gone to look for a better thing to do than going back to school while some have commended her action.
Below are some of the comments:
Faith on Facebook said “My mum went back after my younger sister and started from primary 3 in adult school and wrote WAEC/NECO in 2003 with my immediate elder sister and brother amidst discouragement from neighbors, friends and even my father. But today she can read and write any script given to her.
She said her main aim of going back to school after being asked to drop out for her brother those days was to be able to read the bible and also take notes in church.
If determination was a person, it’d be my mother Mrs. Comfort Abene. I’m proud of you ma’am.
I celebrate you too madam Ezinne…you can do it”
Collins said, “This is called determination. My mom went back to school after I must have graduated from secondary school and she wrote SSCE examination with her fourth child passed and went for NTI, finished and went for NCE program, graduated and went for her BSC in English Education and presently she is running her master’s program.
A counter comment condemning her action said, “Not much of impress. There are more meaningful things to do at this age than what you are doing”
Even at that so many people said she has done well and is even a source of inspiration to others.
