"More importantly, I think one’s attitude towards work also matters. If you’re hard-working and people find that you put in all your efforts into your work, you will get patronized to a large degree. All through my 41 years in the industry, I’ve always been busy with work. There’s never been a time I have no job to do."

"When you pick up anything to do, do it very well; don’t be shoddy. Put in your best always and make sure your best is good enough. If you work hard, God will bless you except there is something very wrong."

"Women are good at multi-tasking, parents should bring up their kids properly today so they can have a peaceful tomorrow."

"“You’ll always stand out if you aren’t sloppy”"

"“I love giving. I’ve trained over 100 kids, and I don’t know 99.9 per cent of them. I pay school fees for indigent children in my mother’s and father’s villages and I’ve been doing it since I was in my thirties,”"

"I feel a woman is first and foremost a human being before being a woman."

"Your work goes a long way in telling what kind of person you are. If you’re a sloppy person, it will manifest itself in your presentation."

"I believe that Nigerian engineers are as good as engineers anywhere in the world because we are trained properly. But the problem we have is this Re‐training, Continuous Professional Development activity which I know that Tech Grade Consulting tries as much as possible to carry out. But you see the problem is with us. We do not believe in going back to school. We don’t believe in up grading our knowledge. We don’t believe in improving on whatever we had had before. Most of us forget that engineering is not static. That is our problems. So we end up haviing very old and obsolete information and knowledge which we use in doing our work. I am as guilty as everybody and again, I think it is the society. The environment is not being created to take care of this problem. Edition.pdf"
