The renowned management consultant and motivational speaker from Nigeria began work as a management consultant who was offering advice on corporate strategy and customer service.
He later became a motivational speaker for his ability to emotionally connect with people, and even bring them to tears.
“Every time I trained people in customer service, on relationships, on selling skills, they would say to me, ‘Oh my God, we’re so inspired” he once indicated in an interview.
He further debunked claims that his fellow countrymen are finding it difficult to make it due to economic difficulties. For him, getting to the top in terms of dreams has more to do with one’s attitude as those economic challenges are only “illusions”.
He has since entered politics but has insisted that such a move will not sway him from what he is best known for.
