“Chief Ahmed Onibudo, an easy going and courteous businessman, has done a duty many achievers in our country should emulate. He has told us in this work his rise from grass to grace, from indigence to affluence. It is an inspiring book written with passion and a high sense of duty to the Nigerian youth. His mission is to use his personal experience to guide the young ones on the difficult and challenging path of entrepreneurship. It is a hands-on book. Onibudo’s experience gives us no opportunity to make excuses on our inability to improve ourselves.”—Alade Odunewu, OFR, FNGE.
