Think back on your most memorable road trip. Africans in the building, let’s gist. It was a few days to Christmas, and I was excited that I wouldn’t be spending that in Nigeria. We were going to a student mission conference in Ghana. As of two weeks to the said date, I don’t even have my international passport and yellow card yet.  I blessed the good old days when you could get your…

What snack would you eat right now? What a sweet soul I have got for you If I bake for you it wouldn’t be as sumptuous and fluffy as the one Treasured Hills Cakes & Pastries will bake with love and details.

Come up with a crazy business idea. Thinking of what this business idea could be is in itself crazier than I thought. It could be as crazy as selling a bowl of pap with a plate of moi moi/akara for £10/$10 somewhere in Nigeria. That meal is common among the Yorubas and its lovers. A good meal you can make at home for less than a #1000. Whatever that crazy idea is, I know it will revolve around…

When it comes to clothes, it was either my parents or my siblings…

What could you do differently? Many days before my monthly performance review call, I am always caught up with these questions. No matter how amazing the previous weeks have been, that one week to the call could be filled with many nightmares. The fear of having someone else rate me based on their perceptions of my capabilities and the like is the beginning of inquiries. What could I do…

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?BE INTENTIONAL Let’s settle the cost implications first. In Nigeria today, it’ll cost me about #250,000 – #650, 000 naira per month.

What is the greatest gift someone could give you? The greatest gift? Wow, that’s a lot of thoughts put together. Not a great one neither is it a good one. I received the greatest gift over a decade ago but before I get to that.

What colleges have you attended? I know you’re wondering what that means. I’ll tell you soon. Maybe you’ll call me one when I am done. I’ve been to many colleges.

Do you feelplay in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you? I hear something else entirely. SB took life more personally and seriously than I thought possible. Several things say “playtime” to me, but somehow, the only time I hear are undone personal tasks and activities. Somewhere in Ibadan, Nigeria I play a lot and I do when I ought to focus and do other important things. For this…

What are your biggest challenges? That sounds like an excuse. No way! Time and time again, I find it stressful to be consistent at my goals.

I strongly believe that if I can get my mind to do even the boring things daily, I’ll get better at…

In this yuletide season, all I want for you is to feel great in the now and the hereafter. Home or…
