Nsarangbe acknowledged the role of parents, teachers, and mentors in the students’ success and advised students to choose careers that align with their interests, abilities, and market relevance.

He noted that many students choose the science stream under pressure but later change courses. He said parents should understand their children’s interests and allow them to follow their passion, rather than imposing their own views.
