How I Contributed My Quota To Grow A Friend's Business by Jimsonjaat96(m): 8:32pm On Sep 20, 2021
3 and half years ago, a friend of mine (Uthman Mahroof Wolf) from secondary school days who I have known for ten years now (since 2011) conceived the idea of founding a company. After preliminary research on his part, he contacted me late 2018 for what later turned out to be torrents of discussions, brainstorming and exchange of ideas.

Till now I am unbothered with his choice of me and though, I appear unconcernedly I won't mind if he tells me though.

Back to rail: honestly, his plans were heterogeneous, voluminous and seemly impossible. We would spend hours talking, assessing, mapping out, ruling out past conclusions, etc. What he wanted to do was 'impossible' and why didn't I just tell him? He struck me with a deep sense of commitment, passion and knowledge of what he was about to do. Those were enough for me. He looked like he knew what he was saying.

Honestly, I didn't know if I had been much of a help to him, but he always come back to me.

There were times he would go offline with sole excuse of wanting to know more. Those times he would tell me that he was going to be busy for so-so number of days.

We were still on these discussions COVID-19 came. He started Wolf Group during COVID-19. He told me that he realized he had spent a lot of time on plannings and had to get the ball rolling. Just get the ball rolling, anyhow.

We still continued to exchange ideas after he had started, and ALWAYS consulting with me on even minimal things range from location of office to furniture!

What seemly impossible is a multi-million Naira project today, and I got to understand today I wasn't alone in thinking he had too much to do on his hands then.

His most constant quote that never fails to get to me is "If you refuse to help your friends in their various endeavours, it's poor people that will populate your ceremonies. And they are your friends you refused to help".

Uthman Mahroof Wolf and I didn't know much about ourselves in secondary school days. I was an R (used for Arts) student and he, Science. However, I was notorious for scallywag and I was a brilliant student. Also I headed the school B guys. So it's no big thing to say that I had good luck with popularity.

Wolf on his part and his gang were very good at computer stuff. There were many reports against them in the school Cafe, and majorly centered on stopping allocated time on computers.
