About Me
burning with a passion, running with a vision, going on a mission of lightening the essence of the youths of our generation, the future of anything, belongs to the youths closest to the youth. the impact of the youth should not be felt from when they graduate, but even yet in their undergraduate days in school. education is not a limit to the impact of youths, but an edge and addition. i am making sure this is realized and those who have realized this, are made public by co - creating YIESMAN which is a platform for such expressions.

More About Me
I'm passionate about
Financial Education, Youth empowerment, Entrepreneurship Education,
An idea worth spreading
the undergraduates yet in their university days can still make the impact of their predecessors (other graduates) without necessarily being a graduate first. you don't necessarily have to go to school for a program which is of no essence to your major contributions in life. other forms of education that deals and develops an individual in the aspect of his contribution to the world, can be created and everybody can become educated without segregation . You cannot be fully educated. Your focus in life creates blindness to other parts of the world.
Talk to me about
Education, Ideas, Entrepreneurship, Social Entrepreneurship, Business Innovation
People don't know that I'm good at
Public Speaking
My TED Story
i was introduced into the idea of TED by a friend of mine - Benjamin Abegunde who was so crazy about the idea and being a person of like mind, he decided to share this with me and this has birthed an organization we started together alongside another friend of mine, which is Yiesman - Youth Ideas Empowering Society And Making Action Networks...

A comment on Conversation: Are Feminists just pursuing their shadows? Or what they need is just new Light....
Morgan’s “Radical Feminism” and
the first chapter of Betty Friedan’s
book “The Feminine Mystique”
called the “The Problem That Has
No Name”.
I find that Robin Morgan believes in a
divided world in which men are the
oppressors and women are the
oppressed. Feminism is not a question
about rearranging the system in which
we relate to one another but about
fighting for changes in the way that
men relate with women. While the first
wave of feminism was largely about
gaining the state’s support, the second
wave of feminism, while redirecting the
focus to interpersonal relationships,
seems to be about gaining males’
awareness of and attention to the need
for gender equality. While she stresses
that women’s engagement is essential,
I find that the responsibility lies quite
extensively in the hands of men. This is
evidence for polar thinking. To Morgan
there appears to be men’s issues and
women’s issues. The adherence to a
binary is evident in her reflections on
the lack of solidarity amongst women.
Her protest against “[a]ll that fantastic
energy going to fight each other
instead of our oppression!” clearly tells
me that the advocacy for women’s
rights is women’s advocacy.
Furthermore it does not appear that
the attainment of gender equality is
something that is co-created as much
as it is realized through women, the
unequal or socially defined “Other”,
earning men’s, the equal and “Self’s”,
awareness and recognition of the (their,
women’s) issue’s urgency.

says a woman who left a position of
power: the women who have
managed to be both mothers and top
professionals are superhuman, rich,
or self-employed. If we truly believe in
equal opportunity for all women,
here’s what has to change.". Thanks again for your contribution!
