The young man recently shared on Twitter two frames that summarised his humble beginning and how far he had gone in life.
Hakeem who grew up in Mushin area of Lagos state was seen in the first frame granting an interview to local journalists. According to him, that happened in 2014.
Six years later, he would later speak to journalists on live camera but this time, it was in far away Oxford University, United Kingdom.
The young man who seemed to have oratory flair urged his Twitter friends not to give up, but to keep at it.
His tweet gained huge traction on the bird app as Nigerians drew inspiration from his pictorial story and marvelled at his achievement.
