Olamilekan Omotosho is the Chief Executive Officer of Naijaways Global Services Limited. He tells TOFARATI IGE about his career and other issues

We live in a society where everybody wants to be doctor, lawyer or engineer; forgetting that someone still has to do the other jobs, which are also need for the smooth running of a country. I hope to see a day where a child can proudly say that they want to become truck drivers. However, that can only happen when the person knows that he can sustain his family with the job.I have always been a critical thinker. When I was younger, a technician used to fix our generator.

Also, the lack of proper training for drivers is quite a challenge. Given the educational level of most drivers, it is difficult to change their ways, because they are often set in their ways.I have been trying to leverage on the connections and network I have in Nigeria and Canada. I am also growing our online presence.My sister has always been a big supporter of mine. My friends and the people around me have also been supporting the vision in their own ways.

Nigeria is experiencing a huge brain drain, with many professionals travelling out of the country to seek greener pastures. What do you think can be done to stem this tide? Investing in talent and creating opportunity for growth is the surest way to correct this issue. People naturally like to feel valued. Professionals are travelling or even running away because they feel Nigeria is stifling their growth. Opportunities should be created for professionals to grow. Also, anyone who isd in a position to nurture and invest in their talents should do that.
