POV: Huawei welcomes the distinguished guest. Day one 🙏
I'm super excited to commence a new year today. Happy 22nd Birthday Anniversary to me.

Grateful it's finally here and I'm hitting the ground running already. I have drawn a subtle conclusion that a life of impact on humanity is one of the most fulfilling things to do as it makes the world a better place.

As opportunities for growth and development keeps presenting themselves. I would be eager to leverage them because there's a generation waiting for me.

For esteemed connections and well-wishers in whose sight I have found grace and favour, who has decided to bless me on this faithful day, of which I don't think I neither deserve nor I'm worthy, please find my details in the comments. I am really grateful. Thanks and God bless you ❤

I'm finally 22 and I am only just beginning

Last night, my dad for the first time told me these words

“Emmanuel, thank you for what you have done for me. You wiped my tears“

Honestly, I felt so happy to hear that. I felt like I had hit a milestone.

I hear that a lot from my mum but when he said it I felt like crying.

I felt fulfilled. I know what my dad went through growing up and it's part of my goal to make him proud.

You might say It's not worth sharing but it meant the world to me.

Where do I start? I can't believe this is finally happening. A moment truly long overdue, but it's here already and that's a fact.

Talk about the denials I got or the delays from other opportunities to travel out of Africa. At some point, I thought it wasn't gonna happen this year.

Then this came in, an opportunity I didn't move a needle for. Of a truth, It's nothing short of the finger of God and I am ever grateful.

Landed in Addis Ababa. Let's explore China 🇨🇳 together. Shall we?

Dear friends, delay is not denial and miracles can come from unimaginable places.

In a world where principles are rolled out to eliminate God in our lives, I dare to be different.

If I will be a multi-millionaire, I pray I don't lose my identity as a Christian.

If I will be a billionaire, I will strive not to deny my lord and personal saviour, Jesus Christ.

If I eventually own a start-up that becomes a unicorn. I won't adulterate my values

If I even lose followers because of this post. I don't mind.

This is who I am and I pride myself on it.

If I get there and this doesn't happen, then I have failed as a Christian and my success is not complete.

Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches.

but let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, exercising lovingkindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth.

If you have this mindset kindly share this post.

It was in 2017, I had just gotten into school and I was 16.

At the time,
🧨 I didn't know myself or my purpose
🧨 I was shy, quiet and had low self-esteem
🧨 I had no skills and was fully dependent on my parents.
🧨 I got into school cause I was the first child, so I wasn't sure what I was doing.

But in 2023, it's a different person and a different story.

⚡I have a sense of purpose
⚡I became a Co-Founder
🎖I met my role model
🎖I am a public speaker
⚡I have over 150K followers (sometimes I wonder how I got there, lol!)
🎖I am the most followed student on LinkedIn in Nigeria and Africa.
🎖I inspire young people like me across Africa to believe in themselves, believe in the impossible and do more regardless of their background or age. That's part of my calling
🎖I have gotten quite some recognition for the little work I have done and an award for excellence.
🎖I am still running cause I have only just begun.

So what changed? What made the difference?

In 2020, I decided to do things differently and out of the norm, I decided to leap out of the box into what felt like the unknown, I decided to answer “Why me?“ and I intentionally took charge of my life.

It has been an exciting and rewarding journey since then. It can be the same for you, Only Just Start!

It happened so fast!!

I can hardly believe I'm here now, 40k+ awesome and outstanding followers. OMG 😱

Anyways, I'm grateful. Thanks for finding this small boy worthy of being followed.

The goal was to end the year with 20k followers, it's not the end yet but it doubled. This is grace at work.

Thanks once again for your support. God bless you and have a wonderful weekend.

I am a Christian. I live my life as though it depends on prayer and also as though it depends on hard work.

Being a Christian doesn't mean being lazy. That's a disorder.

Being a Christian doesn't mean being worthless. That's a misconception

I am a Christian and I am hardworking, but I rely more on God's grace and will. It's a plus for me.

I am a Christian. I live my life by the principles of God's word and I live above the world.

📍Let your light so shine before that they might see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

📍Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings, he shall not stand before mean men.

These are some of my best-loved quotes from my favourite book ~ The Bible

In a world where everyone is passionate and going crazy for different things.

I am passionate about God and won't live by standards that want me not to talk about God in my success and achievements

Others might not talk about him but I can't help but talk about Him that has brought me thus far.

Being a Christian isn't a limitation and is not a call to mediocrity. It's a call to live life abundantly.

In this world, there is no fence, you stand for something and I just made mine. What is it gonna be for you?

Share this post if you have this mindset. God bless ❤ &💡

Yesterday, I was privileged to meet Tunde Onakoya, founder of Chess In Slums Africa, thanks to my boss Chukwuma Ezeh.

Personally, his story has inspired me greatly and it was an honour to know that he knew me before we met. I was humbled to hear that.

Using chess to take kids off the street and reshape the future of these kids on the streets, many would have concluded that nothing good can come out for them.

Honestly, things like this are what I wanna do, transform the lives of people, give hope to the hopeless and new dreams to those that have lost theirs.

Hopefully, in the nearest future, I will find a way through which I will be able to carry all those thoughts of mine.

Sir Tunde, you are doing a good up and you inspire many. keep up the good work.

Let's celebrate him people.

My first speaking engagement in 2022 was successful. I'm grateful to God and looking forward to more.

Most times, my parents, especially mum are still shocked at how things are happening so fast in my life.

The Nigerian Dream, especially for people from unsuccessful backgrounds, is to go to school,

graduate with good results, get a comfortable and good-paying job and build a family of yours.

I come from a comfortable family without the option of Luxury and hopefully, I am expected to live this dream and that's fine.

As the first child, I've seen my parents sacrifice a lot for me and I understand I have a responsibility of taking care of the rest of my siblings.

At 19, I said to myself what can I do that's outside the norm, what system can I create for myself that I will leverage when I am done with undergraduate studies.

So I joined LinkedIn back in November 2020, and the connections I have built have changed my life drastically, the jobs I have gotten have transformed my life exponentially.

And today, I handle issues financially my parents don't expect of me yet and I am forever grateful to God for the achievements and milestones I have reached in just a year.

I would say the turning point started when I came in contact with my morning at 19.

The Journey of a thousand miles starts with a step and that step is reorientation and making the right decisions.

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads doing audacious stuff for their children.
I'm super excited to know that I can now do this without any fear of what people think about this.

It's Monday.

I am so happy to start the new month with 30k followers.

Honestly speaking, all that had happened these 3 days was totally unprecedented
and uncommon.

It brought about 5k plus followers in under 3 days. If someone had earlier told me this week that, “ you would be acknowledged by your icon soon“ I probably would find it hard to believe.

If they had said, you would be starting the new month with the support of these increased families, I would reply “ How feasible, is it? It's quite hard“

but here we are today.

My new month message,

Be Intentional, Be consistent, hold on to your faith and believe

Happy New Month

Happy Independence

And cheers to more

I'm here to inspire not impress

Today, I am officially 23 and I seem not to be overly excited about it, Don't get me wrong, Im grateful to be alive, and Im thankful to be doing something worthwhile with my life, at least from my perspective, I am if no one agrees.

But I just feel so today it's the first time in 3 years I didn't go out for a photo shoot, a ritual I don't joke with before now. There are several reasons I feel this way, permit me to share a couple if you will.

More responsibility, especially to my family, I am the first of 6 children to parents of humble means and as I grow older expectations grow as well, from my parents, my siblings and a couple of friends to say the least. Anyway, Im not doing bad actually, since 19 I have always beat expectations and taken on responsibility even when it's not yet expected of me in some sense and Im always grateful to God for this capacity.

More responsibility professionally. Personally, I just abolished the narrative of being young and getting it right, which ended at 22. I am a man now, obviously, a 'young' man 😄, however, I say this because it's yet another phase to push my limits, have a great sense of clarity and a deeper connection with my purpose here on earth. Moving forward, it's a time to work deeply and enhance my ability to produce at an elite level, in terms of both quality and speed.

In addition, I am actively involved with two startups, Travel Avatar (TVA) and Scholarly and oftentimes, what beclouds my mind is how I can get them off the ground, running smoothly and efficiently, and how do I make sure I am giving my best for the just cause of our objectives and goals as a startup, how do we not just survive but thrive and create an enabling environment that gives my cofounder, co-workers and other co-employees the space to maximise their potentials and become better at their job.

Dear friends, I feel this way today because at the heart of it is the strong desire to become a better person, a better person to my family, to my relatives, to my spouse, to my friends, to my colleagues, to my society, to Nigeria, to Africa, to the world 🌏

To those I continually serve as an inspiration and a blessing, I want to thank you because I'm yet to really see why that is, seeing I haven't achieved much and im just an early-stage career professional like some of you are, regardless, I am grateful my name can resonate with a call to do more and be more. My wish and constant hope for you is that you keep building and pushing your limits for God has blessed you.

And perhaps, If I am permitted to ask for a specific gift, it will be a new suit 🙏🏽, nonetheless, all gifts are welcome, if there will be any and you can send them to me here.

Oh yeah, I accept cryptocurrency too, just ask for my wallet, lol 😄. May I find favour in your sight today 🙏🏽.

Grateful to God for 23, here is to more impact, more influence and more income. I will be indoors all day. Cheers!

As a young person, I often wish for things to happen in my life rapidly, almost as fast as the blink of an eye. Like a snap. However, I've come to realize that great things take time.

I understand that the foundation of a building is just as important as the building itself, if not more so. Even though no one sees the foundation, it's fundamental to how the building can withstand a storm.

To every young person out there trying to make meaning of their life, I'd say we should cut some slack, forget about the outcome we want for a bit and rather focus on learning and building systems.

These are our formative years, a period in which we need to take responsibility for our actions, make strategic decisions, focus on personal development, and invest in ourselves.

It's not the time for shortcuts and quick fixes, and quite frankly, this is a sacrifice on our path if we truly want to change the world.

In the years to come, our efforts will speak for us. They will subtly reveal whether we were merely chasing shadows or truly building something meaningful.

Entering the new month with 48,000 followers is nothing else but a massive win to me.

This is something huge for me and I really appreciate everyone that has supported me thus far.

Correcting my mistakes, giving suggestions when due and having my back.

Gifting me a million-dollar suit 😁, so cool! and I am here today. Sometimes, my life seems to me like a mirage

I hardly believe what is happening to me, the wins, the achievements, the heights, that I am left with no choice but to be thankful

This small boy is surely on his way to greatness.

Thanks once again and Happy new month.

My mom would always tell me your gift and character will bring you before people and take you places.

Every day, I try my best to uphold her words and live by them.

And yes, I have been going places

This is my very first professional shot!!

Even if I gave a stern look here 🤣

You see when I was starting on LinkedIn, I took things so seriously.

I used my feeding money to get this shot coupled with some other ones.

At the time, food didn't matter and I knew what I wanted, I was hungry for something else.

What sacrifices are you making for the results you desire?

You don't put effort and time and you want mind-blowing results. How?

You are not consistent and you want high engagements on your content.

You don't show up and you want to become a force to be reckoned with. Explain?

Please put in the work where necessary and stop wishful thinking.

Happy Sunday.

Of a truth, we will all have our moments, and while yours is yet to come, it's important that you remain focused and keep building.

So that when 'your moment' eventually arrives, you not only have the competence for the occasion, but the courage and character to create more golden opportunities.

I pray the good Lord gives us all the grace to remain focused while yet living in a distracted world. 🙏

I lost 8,000 of my followers just yesterday and it's still coming down as I write this. That's about 5% of my followers.

LinkedIn recently started removing hibernated and restricted accounts which have led to followers decline across all profiles.

According to LinkedIn, it should help improve visibility, nurture qualitative community and drive improved engagement.

I genuinely don't know if I should be excited or sad about this occurrence, it's sad seeing these people go but I hope it's for the best.

It was nice doing business with you all, only this time, it has finally come to an end. So sad to see we broke up this way ☹

Now wondering if they will actually see this post.

Exactly one month ago, we launched Scholarly and I'm super excited to share some of the progress we've made so far.

🚀 We have over 3700 registered users
🥂 An all-time high of over 700 users visiting our platform in one day.
💥 An average of 20 minutes is spent by each user on our platform
🥂 At least 200 people visit Scholarly daily
🤯 Over 2000 returning users in 30 days
🙈 Over 140 people on our platform in 30 minutes.

I'm grateful for the tremendous progress so far. The only way is up for us at Scholarly as we remain focused on making something people want.

Download our app on both Google and Apple stores at www.scholarlyme.com

P.S. I'm not really great with videos, written words are my power but I'm stepping out of my comfort zone and improving on it.
I did a thing last weekend and I would like to say it was yet another unforgettable moment for me. As the co-founder and chief evangelist at Scholarly, It was such a great delight and honour to share what we are building at Scholarly with attendees at the Gen Z summit organised by Purpose-Drive Global 🌍

In today's professional world, young people, Gen Zs, and Students are not served with enough resources and opportunities that make for growth and development and that's where we come in.

Scholarly is a place for young professionals to grow, earn, and find guidance for their careers. we are obsessed with bridging the social-educational gap among African youths.

At Scholarly, we simply want to redefine what professional networking is for young professionals. we are driving a new culture that emphasizes the importance of the process towards success over the result.

And we are giving young people a platform where they can be themselves without fear of prejudices and unnecessary pressure to be perfect. A platform to connect with other like-minded individuals and collaborate on ideas and projects that they find worthwhile.

The Big picture? Is that we bring together a community of builders obsessed with redefining Africa, a group of visionaries who strongly believe in the narrative of Africa rising, and are firmly knitted with the the hope of a better Africa where young professionals can have access to information and resources that will transform their lives.

It's beyond any doubt that, it is this transformation that translates into development in Africa. This vision and hope of Africa is at the heart of the features and products we ship out to our users.

We have so much faith in this just cause and we asking you to come along with us on this journey as we push the frontiers of Africa to new grounds beyond the normal.

Join us today, download our app and become a part of the community of builders at www.scholarlyme.com

Thanks, Legit news for sharing my story. I hope it inspires people of my age on Facebook.

This is what our company could look like after years of building. The E.N. conglomerate.

After going through the comments of my last post, I birthed images of what it would be like after years of hard work, building and scaling. So I concluded to share it with you all.

And it's quite inspiring. we are building the future.

I am building the possible. Just a matter of time.
Post image by Emmanuel Nduka
I believe the sky is large enough for everyone to fly and thrive.

Like I was once told you when I joined LinkedIn I was building something here, there was the big picture before me,

and to be featured in this future, I needed to put in the work, be resilient and persevere.

I wasn't intimidated by the success of anyone nor was I pressured by the achievements of my mates or other people.

Some are founders of a company and I'm not.

Some are CEOs and I'm not.

Some have made cool 7 and 8 figures cash, others on a steady, but I've not made mine and I am absolutely not pressured, you know why.

Because I am building a future and I am putting in the work. Therefore, nothing can stop my results from showing forth.

Honestly, I am sorry for those that feel pressured by the success of others and for me, I try to calm this by sharing my failures too.

I don't know but if you are there and you are intimidated by my success or that of others,

I strongly believe you might not be working on something because if you are, then it should serve as a motivation to make you believe your time is coming.

Peace Out ✌️

We launched Scholarly, and had 6000 users in a little over a month, average time per user of 30 minutes but then came the storm.

First, I have to admit this is one of the hardest posts I am putting out here, it's probably my peak vulnerability as a founder because the norm is that you should sound successful and show successful numbers all the time.

Honestly, I'm not quite sure I'm doing the right thing. Anyways.

We really had a successful launch, our posts went viral, were seen by over half a million people across my social media, and had some blogs write about us.

We even had VCs, prominent Investors and some accelerators reach out to us. It was such an honour. I experienced the incredible dream of a typical founder, ATTENTION.

At the time, we told most we would reach out to them when the time was due because we needed to remain focused on making something people want and building the right tools for young and early-stage career professionals.

I think we did right, some might hold a different view, however, we did that because we needed to be sure of the basis of our development and the philosophy and culture at the very core of our product.

At some point, due to traffic, our systems lagged. A good problem but it took a while for the team to recover. It was at this point I learnt the profound difference between 'Launching' and 'Building', suddenly, things weren't seemingly going well, so we tried different things, we removed a couple of stuff, and we fixed different bugs.

Users did the unthinkable and stretched our product. Different challenges, obstacles and roadblocks here and there. At some point, I lost faith and went missing in action. I was also going through a personal challenge that affected everything I was doing (This is something that should not be heard of a founder but sometimes I wonder if all successful founders didn't have their down times and moments of doubt when things weren't working)

Well, even Jesus at some point wished that the cup should pass him by.

but my co-founders, Opeoluwa Adewale Fasoro and Isaac Oyekunle, kept pushing in those moments of trough, the team and our evangelists were so unwavering in their faith.

Make no mistake, I was down not out, but as I attended events I still talked about what we were building and you wouldn't know about the challenges we were faced with unless I decided to tell you.

Again, I remembered why we started this in the first place, I remembered our mantra- until we all win, no one has won. I remember our philosophy was that young people can come together and build something truly remarkable, enough of waiting for someone else to create the change we desire. I remember it was about championing growth and fostering collaboration amongst young professionals.

For Scholarly, we win together. And we are still very much fighting for it today, just like when we started. We are going nowhere till we achieve this. Until we all win, no one has won

5 days ago, we took a bold step and announced that Scholarly is LIVE to the public and since we launched so many exciting and thrilling moments have occurred. Today, I am delighted to share that we now have over 1,500 users on our platform.

💥 Quite a number of media features.
💥 We have been approached by organisations for partnership and collaborations
💥 Invited to summits to speak, share and showcase what Scholarly is really about.
💥 Invited to schools and universities to share the vision of Scholarly
💥 We have been reached out to by dignitaries and even investors.

The last 5 days have to be nothing short of amazing. However, our prime focus is on “making something people want“ and setting our key metrics right.

At Scholarly, we are obsessed with bridging the social-education gap among African youths.

It amazes me that people are using our crude product, far from perfect and the feedback has been super amazing.

The other side of the bar is the effort the team has invested in responding to queries and fixing bugs. I couldn't have asked for a better team, really grateful for my co-founders, Opeoluwa Adewale Fasoro and Isaac Oyekunle.

We are maximising the resources at our disposal and iterating super fast. So join us today at www.scholarlyme.com Download our app and become a part of us.

Share this post and tell your friends about us. Let's build together because we only win as one.

10 million naira worth of scholarships for just 100 students! OMG 😱

Yesterday, while in a conversation with Mr Bode Roberts 🇳🇬, I screamed when he told me the cost of the scholarship for students affected by the Asuu strike.

Dear students, Dataleum is celebrating her 3rd anniversary by giving scholarships to students to learn Data Analytics for free.

Application is open to students in their 3rd, 4th or final year.

Two years ago, at 19, I took responsibility for my life. I come from a simple background and as the 1st child, I heard how frustrating life can get when you graduate with no job in sight, especially when you have others behind, for me, it's 5 of them. Expectations are usually high.

You really can't blame our parents when they do that. You are their investments and they expect returns as soon as possible. By God's grace, I have grown since then. I am a data analyst, and a speaker, still developing myself in that area. I work with brands as an influencer.

Now, My dream and Vision is to add my quartile to the development of Africa and that's why I take after my mentor, Mr Tony O. Elumelu, C.F.R. I love that man so much. It's all about the impact for me. It's about touching lives with my resources and that's been my sleeping and waking thoughts.

That's why I am always in search of opportunities to develop myself. I attend seminars, leadership training and conferences.

It's not about me eventually, or the awards and recognitions I will get. It's about inspiring people with my wins, achievements and milestone. I hope in 20 years to come, I will return to this post with a smile that I have done it and it's a dream come true.

And that's the summary of a life of purpose for me. Sayonara!

Christiano Ronaldo and I joined the Binance family this week.

Is this a coincidence or a sign of greater things to come? Only God knows.

Maybe I will be a G.O.A.T soon

I'm so excited to be part of this family and Ronaldo just spiced it for me.

Some months ago, a reputable organisation reached out to me to join their influencer program.

I was so happy that I couldn't wait to share it with my family. We underwent a series of discussions and I gave the price for rendering my services to them.

As usual, they said they would get back to me and I was so sure I had successfully landed the gig, that was improper right?

But they never did, I messaged them after a week and I got apologies for their late response. It was still looking like it was intact.

I waited and waited but nothing came, I was devastated. I was asking myself, How will you reach out to me and ghost me after on?

About two months later, I learned the other person left the job and that's what gave birth to the silence.

So we finalised the deal and I started working but my payment was delayed and I got half of my pay, I was overwhelmed yet again but It wasn't that bad because I had other sources of income.

As painful as that is, I learnt my lesson and moved on. These days, if you wanna work with me, you have to pay me upfront before I do anything.

It's so so wrong not to pay someone for the services they rendered.

These happened a long time ago and I am a happy person doing well. I just felt like sharing that story for my LinkedIn community to learn.

Cheers!

I had goosebumps while watching this video the same way it came when I saw that of Tobi Amusan 😢

Dear Nigerians, this is certainly not the time to sit on the fence. I know people would come for me for making a post about politics and would want me to face my career.

But that's me I do the hard things and go against the norm. Nonetheless, it affects all of us.

Asuu has been on strike since February and the government doesn't care about us. This came after 10 months strike in 2020. ( How can I even face my career when my University is on strike? 🤧)

I write this post out of love and compassion for Nigeria and the greatness we look forward to.

However, this can't happen if we don't vote. Therefore, go get your PVC and VOTE.

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Amen.
Last week, on Saturday precisely, I had the pleasure of sharing my knowledge and experience in the #toolboxtalks, Port Harcourt.

Where I addressed ways of growing your influence.

1. Know your purpose (Start with Why): great leaders and successful companies stand out from their competition because they all think, act and communicate in the same pattern.

They communicate their beliefs and purpose, which in turn draws people who believe in their 'why' and it becomes easier to do business with these people.

2. Connect with your audience emotionally. You must be honest and authentic.

3. Be valuable: you need to give back and provide value to your audience. Understand the need of your audience and solve them

4. Be Vulnerable: this is not a weakness but it signifies courage and self-confidence.

5. Tell stories: Storytelling is a great way to engage your audience and develop an emotional connection.

6. Be consistent: Quality consistency does the trick. It's what begat greatness and ultimately, Influence.

Influence is earned and not obtained by chance and takes time to develop.

Growing your influence requires an intentional approaches, as stated above, to providing value.

Have a wonderful week

I love watching TED Conferences talks, it's one of my favourite activities.

From the ambience to the cultural diversity, from the activities to the speakers and their various forms of delivery.

It is always fascinating and delightful to watch. I have attended a couple of talks physically and you can always get that vibes.

Asides from the euphoria that comes with TED events, it offers me the opportunity to listen to experts' take on issues and ideas that are truly worth spreading.

Ideas that shape our lives and existence, that make for who we are, and how our world operates.

It might be something we already know but shaped in such a manner that brings a new perspective.

TEDxOluyole happening in Ibadan next Saturday, the 29th, is another opportunity to learn from seasoned speakers.

It's a time to unlearn, re-learn and co-learn and the networking session is one I don't joke with. It's going to be fun.

Register with the link in the comments section. Be there. Cheers!

For my TED fans, what makes TED talks interesting to you?
