Nigeria

I started my humanitarian activity as a member of Nigerian Red Cross Society in 1993 where I rose from a volunteer to Commandant, Emergency and First Aids Team and subsequently moved to Deputy Coordinator, Disaster Management and later rose to the position of Volunteer Coordinator.

My thirst for a world where there is absolute peace led me into becoming the state coordinator of African Youth Human Rights and Citizenship Development Initiative. An organization that teaches and preaches Universal Declaration of Human Rights and also works towards Sustainable Development Goals. Through this organization, I have been able to organise programmes where peace and unity are promoted aminst different ethnic groups.

I later founded a foundation LIFE COURSE DEVELOOMENT FOUNDATION, an NGO working towards creating a better society for all. At the foundation, we provide Educational, Economic, Social and Medical empowerment to individual. We also promote unity and peace through different initiatives.
