The Lagos State University (LASU) has begged Bella Shmurda, the popular Nigerian singer, to come back and complete his degree programme.
On Wednesday, the ‘Cash App’ singer, born Akinbiyi Abiola Ahmed, had disclosed that he dropped out of the varsity after he failed some courses.
He had also revealed that he did not regret his decision to quit school.
