Mr Ahlidza said his fourth and fifth children were also in basic three while the sixth and seventh, in kindergarten one and two, all at Atsigode near Dambai, in the Krachi East Municipality of the Volta Region.

He said he had the support of his wife and promised to enrol her too, after he completed.

The fisherman said his father married seven women and gave birth to 20 children, none educated.

He said he started school in 1990 but went to school once a year and later dropped out.
