IN SHORT

After receiving most of his education in northern Nigeria, Donald Duke moved to the U.S. for his postgraduate in law. He opted to return to Nigeria in order to fulfil his potential, where he would later become one of the youngest elected governors in the country. Now that he is out of politics, he has taken his passion back to the private sector. “Make things happen. Although money helps, it’s not always about that. It’s more about your will, determination and focus,” he says. “Believe in yourself and have a clear vision of what you want to do – no matter how outlandish it may seem.”
