2nd place in my very first OPEN Men’s Bodybuilding show 🥈 And honestly… I’m proud. Not just because of the placing, but because of everything it took to get here. Last year wasn’t easy at all. After traveling back to the motherland Nigeria 🇳🇬 after 14 years, both of my tibias had to be operated on because of compartment syndrome, something I had been struggling with for a long time. The pain and numbness during running, swimming, or even walking fast were real, even when people thought I was exaggerating. The problem still isn’t 100% solved yet, but with God, time, patience, and hard work, I believe everything will fall into place 🙏🏾 After surgery, it was time to rebuild from scratch. Around October/November, I could finally start training properly again. We had limited time to grow, rebuild muscle, and prepare for the OPEN class all while balancing military life and studies. So no… this definitely wasn’t easy. Of course, I came to win. I don’t step on stage just to “make top 6.” But yesterday, the better man won. Big respect to Eddy 👏🏾 He brought an insane package and his conditioning was next level. Standing next to him was already special to me because I still remember watching him compete back in 2018 thinking: “One day I want to stand next to him.” Yesterday, that became reality. This prep taught me that anything is possible when you truly believe in yourself and trust the process. Huge thank you to @rogerboyce_barbados_worldcup @tavernekoekoek @strengthousebrugge , everyone who donated and helped, my coach @flexcoach_dean , @xxlnutrition my sponsor, my team @vanbossel_aisha @ruth.pe__ , @esigirly4 , @bryonvs , @vanbosselbaida Now we go back to the drawing board. We’re coming back bigger, harder, sharper, and better. And FYI… I was definitely big enough to stand with the big boys 🤣. I know if they had put us to more work yesterday, something different would have happened because I love posing and I believe when I pose more, I get harder and denser but wasn’t the case. Greatness is the way. #bodybuilding #champ #nigeria #barbados ifbbpro

As flat as a pancake 🥞… and honestly, just typing the word “pancake” is making my mouth water 😂 But here we are, 7 hours out from stepping on stage again after taking a full year off. This time, we’re standing with the big boys, and I couldn’t be more excited for this one. Conditioning is on point, and hopefully the size managed to catch up too 😅 The work has been done. Now it’s almost time to show the world what we’ve been working for. LFG 🙌🏽 #bodybuilding #ifbbpro #shredded #flex

The best is yet to come 🕰️ #bodybuilding #flex #gym #shredded #ifbbpro

Almost at the finish line… Looking back at last year still feels unreal. After my leg surgery in August, I had to step away and focus on recovery. Even now, I’m not fully back but we didn’t wait for perfect conditions. In October, my coach and I got to work. No long off-season, no excuses — just a plan and execution. Fast forward to today: I’m sitting 10kg above my previous stage weight. That’s 10kg of new tissue built in a short time. Now it’s real. I’m stepping in with the big boys. It’s intimidating but we’ve prepared for this. We trusted the process. We stayed consistent. And we’re not done yet. By God’s grace, we finish strong. 💪🏽 #bodybuilding #comeback #discipline #roadtostage #flex

Almost GO-time #bodybuilding #prep #shredded #gym #flex

Silence is part of the process. No need to explain. No need to announce every move. During prep, it’s me vs me — early mornings, discipline, and a vision that doesn’t need validation. While the world is loud, I stay quiet and build. 💪🏽 When it’s time… they’ll see. 🔥 #bodybuilding #prep #lifestyle #army

The best is yet to come. 💫Now someone please send carbs… I swear it’s been at least a week 😅🍚 #shredded #bodybuilding #flex #gym
