He said:

My father, Mr Akinwande, had never in his life been near an airport, let alone flown on a plane. His very first flight was not just international but to a place he had dreamed of visiting all his life. He never imagined he could own a single block, but today, he owns a house. Ola of Lagos added that his dad who worked tirelessly to ensure they had three square meals as a bike man now drives his own car and owns multiple businesses.

He added:

My dad's story is a huge source of motivation for me. He never thought he could achieve all this in his lifetime, but Alhamdulillah. I pray we are all able to make our parents happy and prioritize them above all else. If you're having a bad day, I hope this serves as a little motivation: don't give up; it's never too late. May Allah bless us all, Insha Allah. Ameen.
