What inspires you?

My greatest inspiration comes from young people who have active involvement in community work. Community is the venue through which creativity can be fueled.I’m inspired by people who struggle through starvation from day to day. Great designers inspire me too, which is why I spend a small fortune on books.

Tell us about an issue that matters to you and how you became aware and involved.

"UNEMPLOYEMENT"-This is a very serious issues in my country Nigeria.I beleive young youths should put thier talent into use. Business empowers you financially. I always ask young graduates for have spent so many years seeking employment the following questions

1. What do you have inwards that have market value?
2. What do you have that others have to pay to benefit from?
Everyone has something great to contribute to the society to make it a better place.
Every business is the product of good thinking. More than ever Entrepreneurship is needed to retrieve the economy of my country.

Share your perspectives on what makes a good leader.

A good leader is one with vision and motivates his team members to working jointly to achieve this vision and in the process help each other realize their own unique potential. A leader is a person who performs the role of influencing others to achieve certain goals and objectives in a group, organization or community. Not everyone can lead. One is either born as a leader or has the ability to learn

Do you think TakingITGlobal can help you achieve some of your goals? Have we already? Please tell us how.

Taking IT GLOBAL has really being of immense impact in my life. It has created a platform for me to interact with like-minded youths who share my interest,passion and belief.
