My trade is shoemaking. I opened my own shop in 1984 in Badagry and I'm still there most mornings.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I paint watercolors of whatever is outside the window.
If you remember me, I'd love to hear from you.

What gifts mean to Folake: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
