She said “Your background does not determine your destiny”, she talked to the D2D participants about the importance of starting with a dream and passion regardless of the funds available, encouraging them to learn from failure and not to give up after failing.
“Failure is not a person, it is an event. You learn everything from failure more than you learn from success.” Dr. Ola continued her masterclass speaking about entrepreneurship, “Entrepreneurship is being resourceful.  It is the ability of believing despite of the lack of resources.” She further said, “The people that generate wealth are people that make multiples of themselves.''

Lagos-Ibadan expressway is jinxed The rains are here. Thank God. The heat was becoming unbearable and many times I thought perhaps I was in hell because hell cannot be hotter than this. I hope America will experience the same kind of heat we had this year  in Nigeria to shut the loud mouths of those members of the Republican Party who deny the scientificity of global warming. Throughout the dry season from December 2015 to March, many of us anxiously looked forward to substantial work being done on the Lagos – Ibadan expressway. But alas nothing was done and hundreds of people are still dying needlessly on the most travelled road in Nigeria.
