Yakubu Obinna Adeyemi

Shoemaking for 45 years in Gwagwalada

  • 🇳🇬 Gwagwalada, Abuja FCT, Nigeria
  • Gwagwalada Works
  • Since 1981
  • English, Hausa
I've worked in shoemaking since 1981. I learned from my mother and passed what I could on to 2,070 apprentices. I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I'm always reading two books at once.

More about Yakubu

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
