Omolara Nneka Akinwale
Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices
- 🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria
- Ikeja Trades Guild
- Since 2001
- English, Igbo
I've worked in shoemaking since 2001. I learned from my older brother and passed what I could on to 1,330 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I garden badly but happily.
Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.
