COMPELLING STORIES
OF FOUNDERS
AND OPERATORS

"You have to be knowledgeable and competent enough to deliver what you promise. Because with that, you'll be able to navigate through the difficulties that go with any entrepreneurial endeavour. It doesn't matter what business you are doing, the entrepreneurial risks are the same. To ensure success you have to be competent."

"I believe that everyone should surround themselves with at least three critical people - a mentor, a champion and a critic. A champion serves as your biggest cheerleader, encouraging you to dream big and achieve results. A critic tells you the truth about your shortcomings and provides constructive feedback. A mentor shows you what is possible through their life example."

"There are not enough organizations in Nigeria offering business support to small businesses. But with advice, the early pangs are averted. Small businesses are the engine of growth in any economy; if you are going to make an impact, you must address the challenges of small businesses."

"It is important to have a burden for the society, for making an impact on the country and on people's lives. I'd rather do everything I can to serve and make an impact, than to wallow in self-pity about things and complain about the state of the nation."
