Chasing purpose will make you more successful than chasing passion.
Am not passionate about branding or growing businesses, it’s a purpose that am chasing.
I feel part of my purpose in this life is to help build businesses and impact many lives.
Do you have a life purpose?

Human capital is more important than financial capital in Business:
In 2020 during Covid, there was a day I was having a discussion with a friend and some of my staff, I can vividly remember saying “if I could get 10Million Naira, all my business problems will go away and…

Maturity has nothing to do with age.
We see some 28-40 years old embarrassing themselves daily on this app while some other 18-25 years old consistently engage like descent adults.
Twitter is an amazing app that will help you become successful if you choose to use it well
Hello everyone..
I invested a lot of time during this lockdown to work on the major reasons why small businesses fail, alhamdullah I was able to figure out the 20 most relevant problems and I designed a series where I will talk about 2 every week..
Yes at some point in our lives, we need someone else to support, push and help us but that doesn’t mean we should allow those people to decide our faith..
Most people waste months waiting for financing to start their business. But there is a way you can launch a business with ZERO capital or financial risk.
The secret is called “pre-selling”.
Wanna know more about it?

Mama just confessed to me this morning how she has been worried about the effect of corona on my business for the last few weeks, I replied; mama pls stop worrying, I have a great team and we have vowed to give in our all & we will insha Allah get out of it stronger than ever.
Let’s talk about the dip..
When running a business or doing any worthwhile project, there is a moment when you experience little or no progress after the initial starting excitement. You find urslf lacking the motivation to carry on. But The longer you persevere during this…
You can troll people and continue your cyber bulling, Allah zai saka ma duk Wanda aka zalunta but defamation of character is unacceptable.
Twitter was meant to educate and enlighten ppl but it’s been abused 😒
Instead of asking, "How do I get more social media followers?"
Ask yourself, "How can I use social media to amplify something I'm really good at, very passionate about, people care about, and not a lot of people can do the way I do?"
Build from there and be consistent!
Many successful entrepreneurs start their business as a side hustle & keep their day job until the it can support them. That’s good logic. Bt sometimes it's smart to throw logic out of the window. With your back against the wall, you almost always figure out how to make it happen
After my PGD on entrepreneurship in 2018 at KASU, I decided I was done with school but my wife inspired me to go back and Alhamdulillah am currently running 2 MBA’s, not just that, I’ll go for a PhD immediately am done.
Afteral, Mama always wanted a Dr. title added to my name😅
Whether you chose to be an entrepreneur or look for a Job, you need to understand that Formal education gets you a job or business idea, but self-education is what makes you rich!
The progress of others should serve as an inspiration to you not a threat..
Wealth is in abundance, what I earn won’t stop u from earning what u deserve and vice versa
Don't stay on the wrong road just because you've been traveling on it for a long time.
We sometimes need to take a turn to another road if the one we have been following is not leading us to our desired destination.
Good morning
When I complete school, I will be happy ..
When I get a job then maybe..
When I get married then for sure..
When I have a kid then definitely I will be
STOP waiting for anything in future to be happy

Focus on building up 1 & 2 and you'll…
My wife has taught me so much about life but The most important lesson is about expressing my affection towards ppl.
Its not like I don’t care abt ppl but I used to be someone who doesn’t express it at all, I remember my mum sometimes used to say that there were times she used to…
I had a meeting yesterday with the COO, CMO & CSO of YBI group on strategic ways we can manage and sustain our dear company and faith of the over 50 people under our care.
Most business leaders including us didn’t see the COVID-19 pandemic coming, so we were not prepared.
You don’t need to be rich to start being generous with others.
There is so much you can share that will make someone’s day: a genuine smile, an honest compliment, a non-judgmental ear, your positive energy etc
Her words humbled me, I thank God and reminded myself to always pray and work hard, then allow God to decide what’s best for me because he knows what we don’t know, he always have better plans for us.
Alhamdulillah ever since then, I have learned to always dream, work hard…
When I speak to most ppl abt saving atleast 10% of what you earn, I hear things like “the money am making is not even enough to cover my needs, how can I save anything from it?
Well the epiphany is that it is not abt the amount u save, the takeaway is about building the habit of…
My best accomplishment in life is not in the things I did for myself but in those I was fortunate to build so other people can benefit from.
To have been able to build different businesses that despite the economic situation of the country still find a way to pay over 2Million…
You're facing problems. Everyone does. Rise up anyway.
Don't let problems disappoint, distract, or defeat you.
Tomorrow is revealed in the way you solve problems today.
I had one of the best 10minutws of my life yesterday at ventures park Abuja with my mentor

I know I am a disciplined person, I know what I’ve got to do and I’ll get it done, I don’t need anyone to motivate me bcz self motivation is the best form of motivation.
I’ll visualize and put my imaginations to work taking one step at a time to see all my dreams come true.
Good…
