After winning an award as the 2nd best corper during the NYSC scheme in 2004 in Jos, he was employed at the Federal College for Animal Health & Production Technology, by the state government. Adesida also worked for Animal Care Konsult in Ibadan for a while. Not long after, Gboyega Adesida decided to explore the world of agri-business, in a bid to add value to the agriculture sector, using his experience and knowledge. This led to the birth of Charm Horizon International Farms, where he embarked on growing staples & vegetables on a large scale.

kn23h: Simi Fajemirokun is one of the young Nigerians listed on the Top 10 Young Nigerian Entrepreneurs under 30. She set up an advisory company - ESFAJ & Partners, due to her disatisfaction with the mediocre consulting services, being provided by foreign firms to Nigerian agencies. She has done a lot towards the rebranding of the Nation’s image overseas, and has contributed toward positive growth at home, through the Abuja Global Shapers initiative and the Read2Succeed (R2S) Africa programme, an NGO dedicated to reviving the education sector. Simi's involvement in a corporate social responsibility programme, opened her eyes to the decay in the sector. From the outcome of a field research in education conducted in a few states, she discovered that 50 per cent of children could not read or write in primary schools. This made her think of different ways in which Nigerian educational system could be upgraded, to become Africa’s giant in education. Her NGO has since impacted over 1,200 students in schools and is looking forward to impacting thousands more, using the power of partnerships. "At Read2Succeed (R2S Africa), we are committed to improve the state of education in public schools. We constantly question the status quo of poor education in Nigeria and strongly believe that education should inspire tomorrow’s solutions. So we develop programmes that positively impact on the environment, teacher and pupils. We were horrified to see how low the literacy level was, where some students in primary six could not spell basic words like cat, bat or sat. Between the experience and the facts, it was too big a problem to ignore. Simi Fajemirokun holds a bachelor's degree in International Relations and Politics, from the University of Reading, United Kingdom as well as certifications in International Negotiations and Project Management. She is a board member of Silver Lining for the Needy Initiative, an Abuja-based NGO focusing on orphans/vulnerable children, and providing free HIV/VCT testing in rural areas. She also participated at the Google Summit Against Violent Extremism held in Dublin, Ireland where she participated in developing strategy for the role of the social media, in de-radicalizing youth in extremist groups, around the world. Simi Fajemirokun is a recipient of the Good Planet Foundation award. Simi’s focus has been on strategy development, crisis management and information management. 1 Like |

kn23h: Gideon Olanrewaju is the Founder of Aid for Rural Education Access Initiative (AREAi) - a non-profit volunteer driven social enterprise that seeks to improve the access and quality of education available to disadvantaged children in rural communities across Africa, by providing them with educational, technical and infrastructural support, which enhances their access to quality education. Under his leadership, AREAi has supported over 3,000 children in rural communities across South West Nigeria. He has held leadership positions in regional and international organizations such as All Nigerian United Nations Student and Youth Association (ANUNSA), World Merit and the International Youth Council (IYC) in Nigeria.

He is also a 2015 YALITechCamp South Africa Alumnus, a flagship program of President Barack Obama for young and outstanding African leaders. He is also a Teaching Fellow/Certified Entrepreneurial Leadership Educator at the African Leadership Academy in Johannesburg, South Africa and A Global Youth Ambassador with the Global A World at School International Campaign on Education. Over the past 7 years, he has been active and also built expertise in community development, non-profit sector management, social change advocacy and civic leadership at local, national and regional levels. 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. 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.

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. 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. Detailed Restorers, offers the following range of services: Their clients include Etisalat Nigeria, Westerfield College, Fountain of Life Church, AIICO, City Hall Lagos etc.,

“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 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. 1 Like |

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. Malas Foods & Catering Services has catered for guests, at a lot of high profile events. Even though the company keeps its clientele list under wraps, a few industry watchers can still cite some ready examples. They handled the entire catering services for Tiwa Savage's star studded wedding to TeeBillz a few years back. Over =N=30 million was reported to have been spent on that wedding. 1 Like
