Nigerian singer Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, popularly known as Skales, has taken to social media to express his appreciation to his former record label boss, Bankole Wellington, better known as Banky W, for sponsoring his university education.

On Thursday, March 20, 2025, the ‘Shake Body’ hitmaker revealed that although he graduated many years ago, he only received the certificate recently.

Sharing a photo of the certificate, he dedicated it to his late mother and captioned it, “Aye my BSc showed up after many years of graduation!

“This is for my mother and thank you to @BankyW for sponsoring the boy through school.”

In 2009, Skales signed a record deal with Banky W-led Empire Mates Entertainment, E.M.E. He left the label after his contract expired in 2014.

It was believed that Banky W enrolled Skales and his former label mate, Wizkid, in Lead City University but the Starboy later dropped out to focus on his music career.
