Wow. What strikes me most about him is that he amassed these achievements despite his rank in the family. Most last borns that I know of show a lackadaisical and indifferent attitude towards life. Hanging onto the baby-of-the-house mentality, they go on to become the runt of the litter amongst their siblings in all aspect and a liability. This young man has proven to be different. Congratulations! 22 Likes 2 Shares |

When you have the right set up, you can achieve anything. All those people that studied in the US always end up coming to Africa to set up something that becomes a hit back to back. Why? Because they have the right set up. If at this point you're still thinking of educating your child in Nigeria, I pity you. 21 Likes 3 Shares |

Weldone To those waiting for the government to change their lives while wasting time How to win in life 1. work hard 2 complain less 3 listen more 4 try, learn, grow 5 don't let people tell you it cant be done 6 make no excuses Germany Kent If you took one-tenth the energy you put into complaining and applied it to solving the problem, you'd be surprised by how well things can work out... Complaining does not work as a strategy. We all have finite time and energy. Any time we spend whining is unlikely to help us achieve our goals. And it won't make us happier. 5 Likes 3 Shares |
