"At age twenty-five, I was managing accounts for Procter and Gamble, Sumal Foods (largest confectionary in Sub Saharan Africa by volume), and several other corporate clients. I had closed large profitable deals and made losses on others, traded commodities across West Africa, seen several business divisions of the family business start-up, then fail or succeed, I had raised capital from and restructured credits in three of the top ten banks in Nigeria. I had sold great brands and built an outstanding distribution chain for consumer goods in southern Nigeria."
