Before joining Microsoft, Olusola Amusan, had worked on projects involving the World Bank, Model UN, First Bank of Nigeria, Youth bridge Foundation Ghana, Zambia & Johannesburg, Schwarzkopf Foundation Germany, GIZ, Ashoka US as well as Entrepreneur Organization US. He currently studies at Philanthropy University, focusing on non-profit strategies for developing economies, and is also the current founder of Curators University. Amusan also ran his own firm Olusola Amusan Company (OAC), on the side, until he got the offer to work for Microsoft Nigeria.

I am Olusola Amusan, a Nigerian Serial Entrepreneur (Author, Corporate trainer, farmer, on-air personality, business coach and preacher) acknowledged as Africa’s Youngest Growth Consultant. I can trace that as far back as when I was 13 years old and I volunteered for an NGO (Life Vanguards) in high school. But before then, I had joined Society for Women and Aids in Africa, Nigeria (SWAAN) at age 9!

Though I did not know so much about social entrepreneurship at that time, I had to learn about contributing to society and helping others grow. The passion became stronger when I was asked to write an article on “Youth Insecurity in Africa: the way forward”. This led me to start my own organisation, YOUTHs Be Secured Foundation, Africa (YSFA) in 2005. It later evolved to SecureAfrica Initiative which is now the Olusola Amusan Company (OAC), with the central message of building SECURE people and business brands in Africa! Today, we have a training and growth consulting arm, a media arm with books/audio CDs and an Agro arm where we farm on about 25 Hectares of land, involving arables like maize and vegetables, and we are expanding. We now have offices in Akure and Lagos, Nigeria. _{https://under35ceo.co/2012/09/13/how-22-year-old-olusola-amusan-went-from-selling-toads-to-becoming-africas-youngest-growth-consultant/}

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C_5uiH7WAAEO4Yi.jpg

I grew up in Modakeke, a community in Osun State. I am the first of four boys, born to a teacher father and a health records officer mother at the time. We lived in a small home, and had a precious stereo that got me hooked to the early morning news, radio dramas and several efforts by the Society for Family Health and the international community to fight HIV/AIDS. When I was seven, the Ife/ Modakeke crisis broke out again and this got my dad involved in peace- keeping work with UNICEF, and other agencies.

At the age of nine, I started volunteer work for the Society for Women and Aids in Africa and that was how it all began. Then I started attending community development workshops and volunteered at a youth development centre at the age of 11 through 13 years.

My path in life is laced with service and commitment to humanity’s advancement. Luckily, I work with an organisation that has that as its core. I presided over the 8th and 9th session of the African Youth and Governance Conference, an assembly of delegates from over 40 African countries- the network of forward thinking change agents, entrepreneurs and innovators.

After I joined Microsoft, I was nominated to sit on the country support mechanism in Nigeria, set up in partnership with the foreign affairs ministry. This work gives experience and a unique insight into what the real problems are in Nigeria and helps us to see and provide the needed support for Nigerians. _{http://punchng.com/im-a-self-development-junkie-olusola-amusan/}

Morenike Okupe, CEO of Malas Foods & Catering Services spotted an opportunity, and grew it to become a multi-million naira business. In 1992 Morenike Okupe’s friend approached her to help look for a caterer to provide food for her brother’s wedding, as part of her support for the wedding. After a reasonable search, she didn’t find anyone suitable for the menu that had been discussed, and realized that this was an opportunity to start a business.

Morenike gathered her mother’s pots, pans and started preparation for the wedding. The outcome was a success, and she soon started receiving orders for conferences and weddings. Today, Malas Foods celebrates 20 years anniversary of catering food in Nigeria, with 45 people in its employ, and an average of 200 catering services every month. Mrs. Okupe is an Industrial Relations and Personnel Management graduate from the University of Lagos, with different management and marketing courses from reputable business schools.

"God’s benevolence has been our staying power. Trust, hard work and passion keep us going. Trust is an essential attribute in this business, and so we are very conscious of this in all our dealings. Discipline is also important in this business. We also pay attention to details in Malas.

One thing that will make a client have a face-off or yell at you, is when you don’t prepare. We adequately prepare; our servers are always enough, and we plan our logistic well. If things are in place, no client will rubbish you. I can’t imagine our client get agitated to the extent, that he or she will shout at us. By the grace of God we always cater beyond our clients’ expectation. We put so many things into consideration while catering and this also has created a niche for us. We go the extra mile for our clients." _{http://independent.ng/honesty-is-the-watchword-to-succeed-in-catering-business-okupe/}

“When you find the place called ‘purpose’, stay there. I had always been very brilliant and ambitious growing up as a kid, but I failed serially at everything I tried until I started Tenstrings in 2007. That moment when I realised that the Tenstrings idea was ‘purpose’, I’ve stuck to it for the past 10 years without looking back or sideways.

I can’t promise you that the place called ‘purpose’, would be a comfortable place to stay; but no matter how tough it is (especially in the beginning), believe me it is still the best place you can be on earth.‎
‎
So how do you know you’re in a place of purpose? –

It is the only place you’ll be, and you don’t have to count the hours and days: they just slip by unwittingly. It is the only place where little means much. It is the only place where happiness meets fulfilment. The place of hope; the place of strength. The place of passion; the place of freedom. And above it all, the place where you are YOU.‎

Get up, Go now! Go find the place called ‘purpose’! And when you do, STAY THERE!”

- Emmanuel Akapo, _{Entrepreneur, Founder,} TenStrings Music School, Lagos.

I found this piece on another blog and just wanted to share it. I don't know the person who said it, but the words resonated with me.

Temitope Oluwadare got her Masters' degree in 2002, but she couldn’t get a job for two years. So she decided to volunteer for a non-profit organization, offering shelter and care for homeless people. During the period she was offering voluntary services to the organisation, she kept thinking of how to find a lasting solution to the sad situation, of unemployment.

https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/shrinknp_200_200/p/4/005/075/2a0/3b8cb2c.jpg

One day, Temitope had an idea to start a cleaning business, and recruit the people she worked with while volunteering, to do the work as they need no qualification for the job. And her new business - Detailed Restorers, was born.

Today, Detailed Restorers with Temitope Oluwadare as the CEO, employs almost a 100 people and services 25 locations, with several multinationals, as customers. Temitope is a Goldman Sachs scholar and mentors hundreds of young people.

I am not supporting Kanu but the Arewa youth declaration was base on the seat at home order that was ordered by IPOB..they were upset, that was what militated the declaration..I dont like Kanu because I believe he is to brash and immature to lead..but the north have been known for its various atrocities against the south.They feel they own Nigeria and every other group are treated has second class citizens that is why its only the Hausa/Fulani can to carry weapons around to rape, main and kill at will without the FG acknowledging such as crime but is regarded as just a mere quarrel between farmers and herdsmen..this country is lopsided and the south easterners feels they are tired of one Nigeria..all they ask for is for a referendum but the north coined it to be war..because they feel they have the monopoly of violence because they now occupy the military...I believe the Igbos should be given a chance to decided if they wish to be part of Nigeria or not..you cannot force any ethnic group by force to remain with you..that is what the igbos are clamoring for. Nnamdi Kanu was quite immature in the way he went about his agitation but that does not give the Arewa youth the audacity to ask the igbos in north to park and leave and their properties confiscated..who does that and here you are supporting the north..the north has been known for its violence tendencies and thier born to rule mentality.. I am very sure you are one of them so i am not surprise.

Madam, it was not the sit-at-home order that was given that upset the Arewa youths. Please read up the genesis of the whole issue. It was the continuous vituperations, insults, vile ethnic slurs, campaign of hate & calumny etc., that Kanu used to denigrate them, and the way he went about urging his followers to kill any awusa, simply because he wanted to create enough trouble, in his bid to actualise Biafra. Those Arewa youths merely expressed their anger at his methods by urging him and his people to vacate the North.

There are responsible ways of pressing home your demands. Even if you want to create your new republic, why must you demonise others? Kanu's irresponsible speech and methods, bred nothing but antagonism for his cause, from other ethnic groups. Nobody has a monopoly of hate. I am not an Arewa youth, so do not even go down that route. You should try and realise that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. That is what Kanu failed to realise. And that is what has caused the mess that led to the Kaduna declaration.

Please separate the mayhem caused by the Fulani herdsmen from the declaration made by the Arewa youths. Or is it the Fulani herdsmen, that are the sole members of the Arewa Youths association? Everyone has roundly condemned their atrocities, and some state governors have even banned them from grazing within their state borders. There are so many different tribes in the North, that are different from the Fulani.

And when that declaration was made, quite a number of prominent leaders from that region rose up to condemn it, unlike in Kanu's case, where leaders from his region and Nd'Igbo in the North, kept mute and quiet, when he was asking his followers to kill any awusa on Radio Biafra.

You should tell Kanu to stop deploying hate speech that is capable of putting his followers in jeopardy, wherever they may be. Nd'Igbo in the north, are the ones being left to deal with the consequences of his hate speech, while he keeps gallivanting all over the Southeast, enjoying himself in his father's house.

omoharry:
You talk as if you don't know the North..the message has been declared and the normal ignorant Amajiris in the street only knows how to do one thing which is killing non Muslim at the slightest opportunity..and you stand there to tell us that it was just a message and nothing else was said.

Kanu should have thought of that before running amok with his hate speech. Did he think that when he was telling his followers to kill any awusa and labelling them as parasites, and other unprintable names, those people would applaud his antics?

AREAi started November 2014 as a charity organization with the name Learn to Lead Foundation, but the vision translated into Aid for Rural Education Access Initiative (AREAi). Having grown up from a rural community with limited learning opportunities, and unsafe learning environment, Gideon Olanrewaju saw the need to bridge the gap, and provide educational opportunities for underserved children in rural communities, in order to prevent them from suffering from the consequences of limited learning opportunities.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C8pbE2nXcAAHHWK.jpghttps://pbs.twimg.com/media/C-Ub1y9XsAEs9Gx.jpg

According to the UNESCO Education for All (EFA) Global Monitoring Report 2015, Nigeria has approximately 10.5 million out-of-school children, the highest in the world which amounts to about 47% of the world's population of out of school children, a figure that is higher as compared to outer countries sich as Libya,Liberia or Togo.

For the 4.7 million children of all out of school children in Nigeria who are of primary school age, they are poor and vulnerable children who were born and are living in remote and desolate communities,sidelined majorly because of poverty or distance to school or violent extremism which has left many homeless and displaced in the country.

From January 2015 till date (August 2016), AREAi has worked with school administrators and teachers, partner NGOs, community heads, religious leaders and other stakeholders, corporate organizations and of course,passionate volunteers to directly impact over 3,000 learners in 8 schools across 4 different locations (Ile-Ife, Apete, Ogbomoso and Ibadan) in Nigeria.

Base on current capacity, we adopt 3 schools on a yearly basis, in selected host communities after conducting needs assessment surveys. Identified needs are addressed with resources mobilization, in form of basic educational and home supplies and school infrastructural support, as well as awareness and advocacy campaigns. Teaching needs are addressed through supplementary learning classes,mentoring sessions and non-conventional classroom learning on practical skills, for personal growth and societal transformation. https://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/gideon-olanrewaju-restores-hope-of-learning-in-rural-communities-through-areai.222223/

As usual, I wouldn't expect a rational argument or response from a mindset like yours - always twisting and turning issues.
OK, by the same token, did the Arewa youths enforced their quit notice?
FYI, any action or speech capable of inciting and breaching public peace is illegal and against the law - insults included; why do you think the govt is now clamping down on hate speeches?
Yes, Kanu had no authority to restrict freedom of movement of ppl in the region, including non-Igbos, many of whom were forced to comply out of fear from being later targetted by IPOB vilgilantes

...and today, the people said enough is enough is enough. If the Rwandan episode plays out in Nigeria today, the Oba's past action was contributory.

And the action of the Eze Nd'Igbo that were in attendance was.... just what, exactly?? Why do you chaps like playing the victim card whenever the Oba of Lagos' lagoon speech comes up?? If the Oba's past actions were contributory, then what do we call Nnamdi Kanu's vile utterances and actions, against other ethnic groups? Participatory??

Culture

Benue State possesses a rich and diverse cultural heritage which finds expression in colourful cloths, exotic masquerades, supplicated music and dances. Traditional dances from Benue State have won acclaim at national and international cultural festivals. The most popular of these dances include Ingyough, Ange, Anchanakupa, Swange and Ogirinya among others.....

Why are you copying and pasting Wikipedia pages on to this thread? Did anyone tell you he does not know how to use Wikipedia to get adequate info., on Benue State? You people are so strange!

HoluwarTohbar:
I will help you, KANU is already on trial for his actions. You should ask where UN was when Oba of Lagos perpetrated his threat? Problems from every angle. But I sincerely blame Buhari for speeding Nigeria into a pariah nation.

When the Oba of Lagos made his speech about the lagoon, 37 of your Eze Nd'Igbo were in attendance at the palace, and applauded his speech, clapping excitedly like schoolkids. They did not stand up to protest his choice of words, neither did they frown at his utterances. So why didn't your folks castigate those traditional chiefs for failing to protect the interests of your people? Why are you now asking where the UN was, when the speech was being made? Buhari only did what any sensible leader would do, by curtailing Kanu's reckless decision to run amok, with his hate speeches. People should go back & learn from the factors that led to Rwanda's recent historical conflict.
