There’s a time to play the fool and there’s a time to stand your ground. When it’s time to stand your ground, you better give it your best fight. And when it’s time to play the fool, look away and act stupid.
I’m a Nigerian wildlife photographer, and every one of these photographs was captured by me, right here in Nigeria. 🇳🇬📸
Through my lens, I hope to show you the beauty, diversity, and wonder of our wildlife—and remind us that these animals are part of our natural heritage.
I hope these images inspire you to appreciate Nigerian wildlife, learn more about the animals we share our country with, and, most importantly, protect them for generations to come.
Nigeria’s wildlife is worth seeing.
Nigeria’s wildlife is worth protecting. ❤️🇳🇬

It’s easier for rich people to get richer bcos of the social capital they’ve built over time.
When you start making money, it’s important people know you’re doing well. While some may see it as “showing off”, it can strengthen your social capital.
When people perceive you as wealthy and influential, they bring you opportunities, proposals and business deals because they believe you have the resources, connections or credibility to make things happen.
Those opportunities can help you grow your wealth even further.
BREAKING NEWS: Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr downplay your accomplishments. A job is a job. A car is a car. A house is a house. Be proud of yourself and what you have achieved no matter what. You have to build brick by brick.
Not every money is meant for you to touch.
That’s something life and business have taught me. You need discernment to know which deals to take, which opportunities to accept, and which money to walk away from.
I’ve done deals worth billions that never gave me the kind of problems some smaller transactions have brought. Sometimes, that ₦10 million you’re chasing can come with a ₦100 million problem.
And to be clear, I’m not saying anyone has the right to take or keep another person’s money. That’s not the point.
The point is simple: not every money is good money. Sometimes, the smartest deal is the one you walk away from.
One very sad story, I was doing calls for draw winners for Budweiser.
Winners were supposed to come with me to Chicago for Lollapalooza.
Our rule is, call people three times before we stop calling.
This lady picks, I introduce myself and she says “stop disturbing my life”.
I think she realized later and tried to call back but it was too late.

Sometimes how you react to having a bad day, can make your day even worse.
