Meet Shaker Benard

Hello my name is Benard. I am 14 years old and in Standard 5 ( fifth grade) in Crater Primary School. I have 3 brothers and 1 sister, and I am the last born.

Even Apostle Ken calls me Lastborn now. My father is still alive at my rural home, but my Mom died in 2010.

Before GOD changed my life I was a street boy for about 1 year. Life is very hard on the streets. You have to search for food and run from the Police. If they catch you, they will take you to the Station, and you will stay there for about 3 days. You will only eat twice each day, and if you have been there before then they will cane you. At night you have to find a place to sleep in a veranda. I was not like most street boys, because I never did any drugs.

Pastor Ken has told me that he is ”very proud of my school improvements”. When I started school  I was ranked number 32. At the end of the Term 2 I was ranked number 14 out of 60 students. My goal is to be in the Top 7 of my class when I finish Class 5 in November.

My goal for a career is to be a veterinary doctor. With this job people call you and you go to his house to help them when they are sick. It’s a job for 5 minutes only. When I do this job I will work for myself and not for the Government. I like this job because it pays lots of money for a few minutes of work.

That is my introduction and I thank you for reading it. I hope that I will meet with you one day. Have a nice day.
