The founder and Chief Executive Officer, CEO, of Afriprize, a gaming platform, Olumide Ogunwo, has shared an inspirational journey on how he grew from Okitipupa in Ondo State to becoming a tech enthusiast and a major player in the gaming industry.
According to him: “The internet opened doors to global communities, I made friends and discovered ways to earn online. At just 17, I started trading digital currencies and creating content for websites like Waptrick and Sefan, showing my entrepreneurial spirit.”Traditional education, however, took a back seat as Ogunwo found a treasure trove of opportunities on Craigslist, where he started connecting landlords with tenants, earning commissions for his verification services.
Afterward, he returned to Nigeria but remained resilient and continued to shine as he navigated through various living situations, adapting to the unpredictable nature of life.
