From hawking pepper on wooden trays at Ogbere Idi-Osan to becoming an Ibadan celebrated chief.
From being an Oke ‘Badan High School struggling student to getting tagged a genius.
From working as an arts and painting apprentice carrying clients’ metal signboards on the head from Gbaremu, Oremeji Agugu to Agodi Gate to graduating with first class (hons) at the University of Ibadan.
From running a tutorial centre as a struggling entrepreneur to becoming the Chairman of Erudite Group comprising Erudite International Knowledge Village, Erudite Model High School and Erudite Millennium Ltd, the Cambridge A’ Level world record-setter.
From being an artificial aerophobe to becoming a natural multicountry flyer.
From disturbing the university community with the sound of a Frajend motorcycle to cruising an SUV.
Thank you for reading the story of my life in six phrases. This is just to encourage everyone struggling out there not to give up.
Whoever says education is a scam is a liar. To God alone be the glory.
….Chief Saheed Oladele, Baàmẹkọ of Ibadanland and Chairman/CEO, Erudite Millennium.
