I'm a 25 year old Nigerian male. My interest in social innovation is naturally motivated and polished through academic learning, through a B.Sc (Sociology and Anthropology), with an M.Sc in view in Sociology of Development(with bias in Demography). My age is about half my country's years of independence and I'm convinced that, to make great impact and to move Nigeria forward, individuals, more than government have a big role to play, by empowering and connecting the young to opportunities that will bring out the future in them. By direct impact, the outcome of the !864 Academy is to secure the future of our country and to strategically predict an empowered Nigeria.
