"I decided to start Acada because of my passion for publishing and educative cum entertaining magazines," he says. "I raised the initial capital we used in starting the magazine through other businesses that I do and also through family and friends' donations who I spoke with when starting up and that believed in the project. It's a passion thing. You know if you are passionate about something, it keeps bothering you until you give it a shot."

...His passion has paid off. There is hardly a major campus in the country today where Acada hasn't reached: if not with the magazine's circulation, then at least with the ubiquitous stickers, carrier bags and T-shirts. The magazine also circulates in schools with strong Nigerian communities in Ghana and the Republic of Benin.
