Around 17 to 20 years, I became, myself, a poacher. And I wanted to do it, because – I believed – to continue my studies. I wanted to go to university, but my father was poor, my uncle even. So, I did it. And for three to four years, I went to university. For three times, I applied to biomedical science, to be a doctor. I didn’t succeed. — Corneille Ewango
