I Couldn’t Attend University Because Of N20,000 – Ice Prince

Rapper Ice Prince has revealed the challenges he faced after losing his parents at a young age, stating how he lost his university admission due to lack of funds.

In a recent episode of the ‘Listen’ podcast, Ice Prince, shared an account of his childhood struggles as an orphan.

According to him, father passed away when he was just 11 years old, and his mother passed away when he was 21.

Ice Prince shared that he worked various menial jobs to support himself through school.

However, he struggled to pay school fees and was often forced to stay home for weeks.

He said: “I don’t have a mother or father. I’m an only son. That’s quite tough. I was eleven years old when I lost my dad. I was about 21 or 22 when my mum passed away. And I have a huge family that depends on me.

“I don’t have no uncle, aunty, godfather or godmother that I depend on. It has been nothing but God in my life.

“I want people to look at my life and say if I can succeed then no one has an excuse to fail.

“I was the guy that spent at least three weeks at home every term because of school fees. I didn’t go to the University because of N20,000. I had about two weeks to pay that money but I couldn’t raise it on time. That was how I lost the admission.”
