‘Making money is my priority now; school comes later’—Yaw Tog

Ghanaian rapper Thorsten Owusu Gyimah popularly known as Yaw Tog has stated he has no intention of furthering his education soon.

According to the ‘Sore’ hitmaker, his current intentions do not include returning to school since he does not have enough money saved.

Speaking to Kumasi-based Hello FM, “I’ve made plans on when I will be going to school but right now I’m gathering the money.”

He continued by expressing his desire to save his parents from having to pay for his education while appreciating their efforts.

“Yeah everyone is supporting me. At my level, I cannot ask my old lady for money. I’m now the man of the house. It’s not like they have no control over me anymore but now I also contribute to take care of the family.”

Yaw Tog is an old student of Opoku Ware School where he studied General Arts programme.

The rapper scored B3s in English Language and Social Studies with his lowest grade being a C5 in Economics, one of his elective subjects during the 2021 WASSCE.

His impressive grades could earn him a coveted place in a university of his choice but it does not seem to be in his plans at the moment.
