    I think one of his successful entrepreneurs is due to his believe in Jesus-Christ, his willingness, hardworking, wisely mindset and his spouse too. God blessed him for this inspiring stories and I hope to get the blessings to marry a husband not like him, but have some traits of characters like him 🙏🙏🙏. May Lord God Jesus-Christ gives me the grace, wisely mindset, dedication , and perseverance to achieve the goal and vision he has formed to me amen 🙏🙏🙏. Thanks again for this interview and be blessed Dr. Cosmos Maduka.

    At the end of the war, our fathers was paid 20 pounds by obafemi awolowo and his Nigerian government lead by yakubu gowon, only God saw us through and kept us to tell the story!
