Recalling his humble beginnings, he said, “I remember it like it was yesterday… I remember sitting down with my mum frying akara there.

”Sitting on the bench there in Ajegunle, and any big man that passes by with their Peugeot 504 or Mercedes 230 or whatever and they come to buy akara.

”I also remember the thought in my head, ‘I wish this man would just look at me and go Young boy just take this, I know that you need it’ or something like that.”
