A lovely 2011! Looking forward to an amazing 2012

I remember sitting in church on the eve of the start of the year 2011 and praying to God to make the new year a memorable one , with all my wishes met!  Although the new year did not quite deliver all the gifts and wishes i wanted , but it did turn out to be better than i ever thought or would have ever imagined.



My graduation, My sister's wedding , Mr Ideal Nigeria 2011 , Miss Omolewa 2011, Ultimate fitness magazine , Clicloc watch , Ebuka's wedding.... all made my 2011 a memorable year!

Who would have ever thought, a small pageant i started in Akure the previous year would turn out to be a big event in the year 2011 , and to add the cherry to the cake , i now get to select Nigeria's representative to the Mister Earth worldwide , Mr Tourism International , and Mr United Nations. God had used that pageant to open alot of doors for me and i have met people i never thought i would get the opportunity to talk to in my entire life!



I have always love magazines , and i always dreamed of having my own magazine! But i thought it would only remain a dream. Where the heck was i meant to get money , or staff or the strength to publish a magazine. I remember telling my friend Charles months ago that i would own my own magazine after the next Mr Ideal Nigeria , but all that was swept away under the carpet when life strains abound. God steeped in and sent a friend , a brother and my very own angel Nonso , and together we combined strengths to publish the Ultimate fitness magazine.




And then the clicloc watch deal came , wanting to come to Africa , and God lined me up and i met the CEO of the clicloc london brand , and now i get to expand and stick with my fitness and fashion brand.



I graduated with a masters in marketing Management from one of the UK's top universities , University of Southampton, while growing up even though i always wished to study abroad , and knew there was a probability i would at some point , i never imagined i would get a degree from a Russell league University.  this just shows God is faithful to the end!



And just when i thought i had used up all my energy  and could not host another Miss Omolewa pageant , God carried me on his wings and the Miss Omolewa Nigeria 2011 pageant was the best i have ever produced!


2011 is a year i learnt to trust God like never before, and he did carry me on his wings. He made a way were i thought there was none , sent me angels in form of Oke Mutay , Dexterity Favour , Dayo, Nonso, Jibola , Rawlings, Tinu Idowu , Hugo, Lucy , Elyon , Sola Akingba, and Santiago. God has blessed with me with true friends who have stood by me and believed in me even when they probably do not even understand what i am doing, Jade Austin , Sanmi Apara , Lawal Hillcrest , Tunde Rufus , Ngozi Otti and

Even though times might be harsh , and i am still miles away from were i want to be, i am really looking forward to the year 2012, and i have never been so excited about entering a new year as i am about 2012
I am excited about many things! the Mr Ideal Nigeria , Miss Omolewa projects , clicloc , UFM but much more  about how far God will take me this year! and i am ready to learn another life changing lesson. One thing is sure , no matter what comes , Nothing will separate me from the love of God! He is my peace.
