Social entrepreneur and businessman, combining my natural talents and energy to help achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of access to clean drinking water for every community by 2030, for Nigeria and the rest of our world.

Globally experienced Fundraising Executive with over a decade of working in the research industry. Skilled in charity work, presentations, public speaking, interpersonal skills, and volunteering. A strong community and social services professional.

This year, I’m honoured to embark in a new role as an Ambassador for the UN Global Goals - also known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with the aim of improving peace and prosperity with access to clean water for all. After years of research through academia and civil society the UN has compiled 17 goals to be achieved by 2030! My team and I at Essential Need are solely focused on Target 6.1 - clean water for all.

When I first heard that 784 million people don’t have access to clean water, resulting in the death of 1.5 million children each year, I felt embarrassed as a human being. Despite the good that has been done through the years it seems only a sticking plaster has been applied to address this problem. However, today because of the extensive research which has been carried out, we now know how to eradicate global water poverty by 2030, which will be a transparent sustainable development goal.
