Scrap metal as an income source is an unfamiliar territory for many; hence the large amount of waste piles of potentially good scrap sources. I plan to develop a viable scrap processing operation that will use innovative methods to boost production of scrap, a crucial raw material in steel production. This will help stimulate the steel industry in Nigeria and allow small producers to increase their productivity, thereby limiting the country’s dependence on imports.

I am also the Director of IT and Creativity of the Lit Club, a non-profit organization still in its founding stage. Its mission is to enrich the minds of young children in less privileged parts of the world by providing them with literary works.

I spend my spare time reading, traveling and providing software advice to friends in Nigeria.
