18-Year-Old Bus Conductor Wins Chess Tournament In Oshodi

A teenager, Adeoye Fawaz, has emerged a double champion in Chess and Mental Maths at a tournament held in Oshodi, Lagos.

The tournament is the brainchild of Chess In Slums Initiative, an organisation dedicated to engaging children and other young people living in slums.

Adeoye had revealed that he wanted to become a comedian and musician but works as a bus conductor now.

This dude. smiley

This is a great and highly commendable thing that ChessInSlums Africa is doing.

Another way of contributing to the society and reducing the illiteracy and purposelessness of the youths in life.

God bless the founder of the initiative and the winner as well.

This picture broke my heart with mixed feelings.
He is too young to be a bus conductor at the same time I’m happy for the Champ.

May this win turn things around and open more doors for him.
Welcome to the gallery Boy!
