Uncovered – Why The Poor Remain Poor (Part 2)

A couple of weeks back I met a charismatic black American CEO. This guy’s finesse & sense of style was 10 over 10. He looked like he walked out of a GQ magazine. Carlos was the kinda guy every guy wanted to be like. I still recall the day I met him, as he talked […]

Uncovered – Why The Poor Remain Poor (Part 1)

So I downloaded a new app which for some weird reason rearranged the icons on my screen. This morning, whilst searching for my ‘Notes’ app, I struggled to find it.

FROM THREAT TO TREAT

Yesterday, I was driving on Bar Beach Road and I looked to the left and saw at least 5 gigantic cranes in action. So much construction going on at the Eko Atlantic city! Do you remember the ocean surge a few years ago. A seeming threat it was back then and many considered it a […]

How a kid meets KINGS

THIS made me humble… ‎ So a couple days back I facilitated a training for a bank. As we were doing the introductions, someone walked in and I almost dropped the wireless controller for the projector. He was a man I greatly respected (and still do) ; I felt ‘unworthy’ to tie his shoe laces, […]
