From what he listed on the placard, Ayorinde has a BSc in Pure and Applied Psychology and a National Diploma, ND, in Public Administration.
Also, Ayorinde has Post-graduate Diploma in Industrial Psychology. When contacted, Ayorinde told Fox Nigeria that he quit his previous employment because he was being treated as a house boy.
His words:
“I have been working in the past. I worked as a private and school tutor. Then early this year, I took up a personal assistant job where I was paid N50,000 but was treated as a houseboy. I then moved further for betterment. I secured a lecturing job in Lagos but the lack of accommodation thwarted the effort as I was on the street for days.”
