His Father Built A House To Accommodate His Height

Afeez Agoro’s mother chose to pursue medical reasons for his extraordinary height and condition after his father died.

How His Height Helped Agoro Get US Visa
Afeez Agoro recounted an amazing story about how his height helped him get a US visa quickly during his interview with The Nation. It is well known that obtaining a US visa is not easy, as you will be required to go through multiple steps and answer numerous questions. Agoro, on the other hand, had no trouble getting his visa.
According to him, when he went to seek a visa to travel to the United States, the Consular General was taken aback by his height and determined that Agoro would not be able to flee even if he wanted to. As a result, he granted him visa almost promptly. Following the visa, Agoro would spend six months in the United States.
