I am a kindhearted man and I love to help other people; above all a God fearing man.
We know that you are a successful Sport man; please tell us what and who inspired you?
I believe my aspiration was drawn
from living across the fence of the historic Liberty Stadium Ibadan, after
trying several sports as a young kid, I fell in love with the Volleyball game
after meeting a father figure coach Jide Omilabu now late. My Late mother was
initially against my involvement in sports with the fear that I might not focus
on my academics but after her 30 minute meeting with late Coach Jide Omilabu
inside Liberty Stadium Ibadan, she changed her mind and gave her blessings. I
will resolve to owe my inspiration to my Late Mother and my late Coach Jide
Omilabu.
I will describe success as a result of one’s hard
work and determination guided by Gods supernatural help. You must be at the right place at the right time in
line with your vision and goal setting.
You
have been impacting black community, your voice has been heard in so many
platforms; please tell us what you have done so far and what are your
plans for the future?
I have been impacting several lives especially in
Nigeria through sports sponsorships and personal academic scholarships to the
less privileged. I plan to establish an Education and sports foundation
pretty soon.
Do
you think that the crisis in Europe will eventually have great effect on Africa
economy?
I may partially agree that Europe crisis will
eventually affect the African nations, because the political instability of
African nations resulting from incompetent and corrupt leadership has
permanently pegged the social and economic development of African nations. Even
with the enormous natural and mineral resources embedded in the African soil.
Do
you think the Black people have sufficient opportunity in The West, and is
anything keeping us behind as a race?
Over the last 20 years, the various immigration
rules in Europe has loosened, especially the unification of European countries
under one currency EURO, except British. That resulted in better opportunities
for Africans. However Africans need to change their perspectives, get out of
the minority mentality by ignoring social welfare system and penetrate through
the corporate and governmental systems. Above all; stay out of illegal activities.
What
do you think the Blacks in Europe should do better, so that one day
we will have another ‘Obama’ in Europe?
Educate our children to the highest level and get
involved in governance/politics.
What is your advice to the authorities in Africa
in terms of security and corruption?
A corrupt government will never provide adequate
security for its people, because adequate security costs a lots of money.
Security personnel’s needs a state of the earth equipment to combat the modern
day criminals/terrorists. African nations need corrupt free government. And
stiff anti-corruption laws.
Where would you like to reside permanently in
the future, even though we know that you are an International man?
Obviously I would like to reside permanently in
Nigeria my birth place in the nearest future.
For
few readers that don’t know you, what would you like them to know about you and
to always remember you for?
I would love to be known and remembered as a good
Nigerian ambassador who served Nigeria through sports and carried Nigeria’s
image around the world in a dignified and non-blemish way. A good role model Prince
Tunde Omisore.
