1. Be a professional. Gather experience.
2. Start a side hustle. Take risks while you still have another guaranteed source of income.
3. Be self employed. Don't add unnecessary overheads.
4. Grow to be a business owner. Yes, an entrepreneur.

RIP to Pa Jakande, the man that built Lekki-Epe Expressway and MANY housing projects for the use of the people of Lagos without any toll gate.
For those that added toll gate after adding just one lane to the expressway, we'll remember you too.
With gratitude to God for a worthy life well spent in the service of Lagos State, Nigeria and humanity, I announce the death of a venerable statesman, outstanding politician, public administrator and the first Civilian Governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande.
