“A lot of them [the student] are grown now because we started this in 2007. We’re working on the secondary school and we’re actually raising funds for it,” he told Mamavi Owusu-Aboagye, host of the show.Fuse ODG, born Nana Richard Abiona, stated that the pupils don’t have to pay fees, however, some parents who feel the need to contribute are allowed to help.
“It's not compulsory if you can't afford it. A lot of the kids even stay over because they have nowhere else to go,” the ‘Antenna’ hitmaker stated.According to him, the expenses are taken care of by himself and funds raised by his friends.
