Six years ago, when I was moving back to Nigeria from England, I had begun to understand that we as Africans were mentally enslaved.
While slave trade had ended many years ago, we had been conditioned to think that everything that was foreign was better.

We won’t get into how the luxury industry is heavily reliant on tanneries in Kano, a northern city in Nigeria, to supply their leather
Kano is an epicenter for the luxury leather — They supply leather to LVMH + Kering, most notable Louis Vuitton + Gucci. Again, brown craftsmen👇🏽

I love how in the north, we end every conversation with a prayer.
Allah ya ba mu sa’a, Allah ya kai mu gonad, Allah ya taimaka, Allah ya kiyaye, Allah ya rife mana asiri, Allah ya kara afua, Allah ya amfana, Allah ya dace mana.
It may seem insignificant, but God is listening
