Nothing compares to strategically collaborating with the right minds, interests aligned and the right energy. The @hiphopgraffiti_inc x @gbamfoundation team and I successfully expanded our impact from Kaduna (where it all started) to Abuja and Jos in one year, 2025. Beyond being tools for social impact and sustainable development especially within the youths in different spheres by implementing 8 SDGs and counting, Sports (basketball) and the creative industries are multi billion $$$$ businesses and #GBAM is an ideal “proof of concept”. Basketball in Nigeria is in a state words can’t describe, from extremely poor administration, no sponsorships, no structure and nothing to write home about, thus a great void. A lot can be said, but we’ll let the workings do the talking. That said, collaborate with us today and win with us or watch us win. The choice is yours. ✌🏽 Forever grateful to our partners and sponsors: Jos Tourism cooperation (curators of @josfamilychristmasfestival ) , @simmerrestaurant , Edge Africa prestige, @jangshooter of NCBC, HotCoal basketball and the plateau state basketball community.

As part of our goals and responsibilities at #GBAM Foundation, we had the opportunity to rehabilitate the Azi Nyako Youth Centre in Jos, Plateau State, in collaboration with the Plateau State Government and the Plateau State Tourism Corporation. The rehabilitation project included: * Comprehensive structural and masonry maintenance carried out on the basketball court and surrounding facilities. * Complete repainting of the basketball court and its environs to restore functionality and visual appeal. * Provision of solar lighting around the basketball court to support night games Following the completion of the rehabilitation, the upgraded court was officially launched during the #GBAM Tournaments, held as part of the Jos Family Christmas Festival, in partnership with the Plateau State Tourism Corporation. After the launch, the facility was formally handed back to the community for continued use, maintenance, and access, in support of ongoing youth engagement and sports development in the state.

From the Crocodile city to the Plateau. We’re going national!

A couple of days back, the #GBAM fam and I accompanied the Super falcons & FC Rosengård midfielder @halimatu.i.ayinde , OON on courtesy visits to the Hon. commissioner of @sportsdevt_kdsg @benjamingugong and the Hon. commissioner of youths development Barr. Gloria Ibrahim after a successful outing (Mission X) at the just concluded WAFCON. Conversations are on going and updates are coming soon. 😎

When the Ministry of youth development calls, you don’t just show up, you stand up for the future! Honored to have anchored the Kaduna Youth day celebration under the visionary leadership of the Hon. Commissioner for youth development, Barr. Gloria Ibrahim. When the mic meets purpose and the voice of the youth meets the mandate of leadership….voices unite, futures ignite and yes, the vibe was unmatched! 🔥🎤 #YouthOnTheRise #KadunaYouthDay2025 #VoiceWithPurpose #LeadershipAndLegacy #MicWithAMission #PurposeDrivenMC

A celebration of talent, teamwork, and triumph! The grand finale of the #GBAM Male and Female Inter-Local Government Basketball Tournament ended on a high as champions and outstanding offcials were crowned and trophies presented by the #GBAM TEAM, Zenith Bank representatives, and the Honourable Commissioner of Sports. Together, we honored excellence, inspired youth, and showcased the power of sport in community development. This is more than basketball—this is movement, momentum, and legacy. Congratulations to all the winners and participants! 🏀 #GBAMFestival #BasketballForDevelopment #ZenithBank #YouthEmpowerment #SportsAndSociety #CommunityChampions #GraffitiBasketballArtsMusic #WomenInSports #FutureOfSports

I had the pleasure of receiving the organizers of the upcoming Croccity Basketball, Art and Music Festival. Our discussion focused on promoting sports in Kaduna State and creating more opportunities for young people to showcase their talents. Every time I’m in conversations like this, I’m reminded of my days at Essence International School—where I played basketball and was a huge fan of the game. Basketball has always been something I’ve loved, and maybe this is a sign that I need to get back on the court. Lol. I was also presented with a jersey by the organizing team. I'm looking forward to seeing this festival come to life!

As part of our continuous effort towards capacity building and development of the youth, the #GBAM team @hiphopgraffiti_inc is privileged to collaborate with the Honorable minister of youth development @ayowisdom_ to achieve these goals. Merging sports and entertainment has positively impacted the lives and wellbeing of the Nigerian youth over the years. Sports (Basketball), entertainment and creative arts in Nigeria are about to experience a paradigm shift. Join us today, or watch us win. #youth #supportouryouth #youthdevelopment #capacitybuilding #Sports #Basketball #Grafffiti #entertainment #RHYE

From one geo-political zone 🇳🇬 to the next. For me, the best part about working in the media space is being “behind the scenes” of great projects. From the radio, to promoting/managing some of your favorite creatives and sportsmen, to facilitating world class events and now producing world class documentaries 📺.The price to pay for the experience is simple………..RESULTS. #NAIDA #Agriculture #Media #AgroMedia
