Meet the Founder: Empowering Lives Through Knowledge and Competency
Born and raised in Nigeria’s vibrant city of Benin, I was blessed with two loving parents who instilled in me strong Christian values and a passion for education. Both my parents were entrepreneurs, and my mother, in particular, played a significant role in shaping my entrepreneurial spirit from a young age. She taught me the importance of multiple income streams and encouraged me to always have my own business, regardless of my job.
Upon moving to the UK, I embarked on a journey of both work and education while simultaneously starting various businesses. Although these ventures faced their share of ups and downs, I learned invaluable lessons along the way, which eventually formed the foundation of my life principles, which I fondly refer to as the 3Ds.
The 3Ds
Determination, Discipline, and Devotion became the guiding principles that kept me going, even during tough times. I was determined to avoid menial jobs and uphold my beliefs, yet I had to take up such jobs to support my family. My unwavering faith in myself and the belief that I could achieve my dreams through entrepreneurship kept me going.
One of my proudest moments was when I pursued a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) program focused on Project Management. The experience exposed me to real-life projects and further fueled my passion for this field. Additionally, I earned full membership in the Institute of Engineering and Technology, among other notable organizations.
Empowering the Next Generation
Giving back to the community and empowering younger generations hold a special place in my heart. More than anything else, this remains a top priority for me. I find immense joy in sharing the knowledge and experiences I have gathered over the years to help others change their lives for the better.
Founding Cedar Pro: The Birth of a Vision

We believe that empowerment is a life gift, and our mission is to create opportunities for people to enhance their lives through knowledge and competency. God bestowed empowerment upon humankind, and we aim to embrace this divine gift to its fullest extent.
