Through the years, working with students on projects, managing their emotions and disappointments, via rejections and failures in academic pursuit and in some cases combined with troubled relationships of his supervised students. Finding himself in their midst has made him try to unsettle their problems so they could continue their work and study to enable them gain meaningful careers for living. The support to the young and elderly ones on his journey has been strengthened by the cross cultural experiences of living in Nigeria, Malaysia and Australia. These have made a remarkable difference in his life.

Having carried out intensive research, being a university sports coach, business enthusiast and entrepreneur; a healthy social life with his community, intersect with his daily life and positively boost his personality especially to provide concerted support to those who need to be the best version of themselves. On his life experiences like anyone, he has had difficulty growing up with little to live on when his parents lost their jobs simultaneously. This event happened in a community of ten of thousands of workers and so many families got destroyed as a result of it. He got real life cases, survival approaches as well as lessons to share with individuals and families that maybe experiencing that today. He has had challenges during his elementary school and PhD research journeys and surmounted it. This could be helpful to those who study and for life issues in general. Lessons from moving from one continent to another with his family and how they managed to get through it all. These are all valuable and would help anyone facing challenges today.
