Description
I am special, and I’m also the perfect representation of the Lagos-Nigerian story. I came from one of the most remote parts of Lagos; Ayobo. I rose from the ashes like a phoenix and created a life for myself out of nothing.
My story is incomplete without the yellow and black striped buses popularly known as Danfo. This bus is a transitional monument in my life, as they transported me from that younger chap with a tiny precious memory card and a dream, to the biggest in the continent in Lifestyle photography and a pioneer in the African sneaker industry. While running around from place to place trying to get the best shots and also constantly improving as the best in the business.
I would always gather up the little I had to be able to afford the old Nike slides back then, I didn’t have enough to get sneakers.
I would always gather up the little I had to be able to afford the old Nike slides back then, I didn’t have enough to get sneakers. Jumping from one bus to the other with the high risk of my camera falling off, just to get to shoot locations.
I remember walking the longest distances in my slides, and after a lot of hustle on the streets of Lagos, the boy from Ayobo is now representing Nike and still pioneering the sneaker culture in Africa. It’s been a long time coming. It feels good to be here, presenting my story on these kicks.
