A Nigerian banker, Banire Abdulrahman Femi has
shocked many after he revealed he dumped
banking for plumbing.
According to Femi, he had a dream to become an
Army General while he was growing up.He was
so passionate about this that he refused to write
the university entry exam (Jamb) when he was
passing out of secondary school. This, to him,
was to make his parent give his ambition their
all.
However, after several failed attempts to secure
an admission into the Nigerian Defense Academy
(NDA), he began to realize that he has to have
several other realistic plans – like become a
successful
entrepreneur. But, the big question was, how was
he going to achieve this feat?
According to Banire, he let go of his military
ambition and turned to plumbing which his
father taught him.
However, after several failed attempts to
repackage and promote his plumbing business,
shortly after graduating from the university, Femi
gave in to the challenges of paying the bills and
took up a day job with an insurance company
and a bank in quick succession.
But, all along, his dreams of building his own
business would not let him be.
Eventually, he resigned from the bank and went
back fully into his plumbing business.
Although, he might still be having some other
great business plans up his sleeves, as far as
plumbing is concerned, Bonire says he’s living
his dreams.
“ I no longer have to get stuck to
the same monotonous routine job
every single day the way it used to
be. I now enjoy what I do and do
what I enjoy. Do you? If you haven’t
found it yet, keep looking don’t settle.
And like every other thing that matter
to the heart, you’ll know when you
find it
‘ The world is awaiting your
success story. That small tiny idea in
your head could make all the
difference, so, let it out. Thinking
you’ll be doing that soon? Come on!
You’d better get started. You’ve only
got today.
‘ You will only get lucky when
your preparedness meets an
opportunity. So go get started right
now!
