Coming from background where we have no connections or social capital, It is important we are not afraid to ask or try.If you don't ask, answer is always NO! That little possibility will only become reality if we keep trying.

The biggest part of Nigerias economy is largely informal. The market traders, the artisans etc. Majority of these people don't have access to loans. They only way they earn is if another person is spending, yet some government are owing salary. That is poverty at scale🥺🥺
For us to understand wealth,we have to understand equity.Richest people in the world don't hold cash.They own assets, a piece or a share in a business.This is why when you hear Elon Musk loses $35 billion in a day,it is not cash but because the value of his Tesla shares went down
We get paid for the value that we bring to the market. It takes time to become valuable. There is no shortcut. We must be ready to do the work.

As a young boy growing up in Mushin, it dawned on me that in a lot of African countries,young people r being left on their own.Whatever happens to you,good or bad,no one really cares,it's you/your family's business. No one to protect you if there r 10 betting shops on your street
I have been fortunate to work on small and large projects up to £500m.We never start a project without a plan. That long term plan is broken down into trackable monthly,weekly and daily goals.We also have a risk management plan,where we list all obstacles,and how we will mitigate
Scholarship Secret: Graduate programs that waive standardized exams do it PRIMARILY to promote retention of their own students/people.
In many cases, these exams level the playing field for international students, especially if you don't have the greatest GPA.
