“I didn’t just “read” at UNILAG. In 2022, I co-founded @smaunilag alongside amazing colleagues to raise awareness about the importance of mental health among students. Through this initiative, we partnered with the UNILAG Counselling Unit and organized various awareness programs.
“I’m also honored to be licensed to host the first-ever @TEDxIdiAraba event, providing a platform to share inspiring stories of resilience and innovation within the IdiAraba community. You can reach out to support or send a message to [email protected].
“And just to clarify, that’s how my eyes have always been since birth. It isn’t due to excessive reading or burning midnight candles (I hardly do overnight and I sleep well).”
