Emdee Tiamiyu explained, “So the student thing is not real. It is not like they need the degrees. They need the degree as an access road to come into the country, so a lot of these people’s priorities shifted real fast.”
During a recent Instagram Live interview with Daddy Freeze, Emdee Tiamiyu defended his comment, asserting that people tend to get offended when confronted with the truth. He also mentioned that he had been misunderstood and misinterpreted by many.
