'Categories of Followers

1 Schemers

They are the Judases. They don’t love the person but love the benefits they can get

2 Settlers

They are just there to settle. They have no reflection of the mentor’s virtues and values'b- @DavidIbiyeomie

'Categories of Followers

3. Students

They are ever learning but never identify publicly with their mentors.

4. Sons

They have the same DNA as their mentors. They learn and obey all they learn and are instructed to do'. - @DavidIbiyeomie

'What you mentor carries is what defines his honour. Whose voice have you chosen to honour?

Be careful if you have constant access to who you call a father/mentor'. - @DavidIbiyeomie

'Don't get too close physically so you don't abuse the familiarity.

Collecting from your mentor is a curse in disguise.

Any honour that does not come with a substance or seed is fake'. - @DavidIbiyeomie

'Always find ways to sow into your mentor’s life so that you can move to the next level.

You cannot draw virtue from a mentor you don’t love and value.

Your reaction towards your mentor reveals your true character'. - @DavidIbiyeomie
