I have relocated my first FUTO Macho Man, the Ikenga, the symbol of strength, excellence and citizenship which all graduates of Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO) are known for. Presented for delivering the University’s 15th Public Lecture, it came with a powerful message from the University Vice Chancellor – and I treasure it. There is no greater honour than when you’re honoured at home!
The second Macho Man which I received for delivering the University Convocation Lecture was lighter and more “refined” but this one on photo, possibly crafted by a raw blacksmith somewhere in Nigeria, reminds you that it is all about academic strength. You need to eat pounded yam to lift it because it is very heavy.
Pursue excellence, demonstrate natural humility, and make people comfortable around you, the path to winning your world will become easier. Yes, they will recommend you in your absence because they want another great moment with you. #Shine
