www.mypatricia.co/
And these are what I learnt:
1. Don't stop because you failed once
2. Be crazy about your vision, people don't need to understand it and you can't help their incomprehension 😏
3. READ BOOKS!
4. You don't have to implement every advice or ideas coming from people. Stick to your plan.
5. Document every idea that comes to your mind.
6. There's always a solution to the problem you're facing. Think!
Also your Problem can be a source of income for you. Think!
7. Take reasonable risk!
8. People will tear you down, mock you, when you're trying to do the most but see past the negativities.
9. IT IS POSSIBLE!
10. BIM will be the word richest lady.
Thank you Hanu❤️
Thank you Peace itimi❤️
Thank you for watching 🥳🥳🥳
I love you already Bim. Go girll
Hanu employed me and i’ll say working at patricia is what has helped me so far to the level i am today, cos as at when i got the job i never knew anything about Bitcoin, and he didn’t lie when he said when employers come for interview and they see him on slippers and dreads they turn back, i didn’t turn back cos i was only inspired when i got to know he was the owner of patricia, you might call him a small boy but his brains are bigger than you can imagine. It was a pleasure working with him during my time at Patricia. Keep doing the most 💯
Amazing!🔥🔥
Who else watched this after they were announced as the headline sponsors of S6 BBN🔥🔥💯
Growth
He was an headline last yr too
Our generation tend to forget that success is a process.. he’s one of the few exceptions. Amazing interview! Youths in Nigeria are really capable if given the opportunity
we will create that opportunity....1f you wait ...we will wait till eternity
Absolutely true
Bro is a peak entrepreneur has all the attributes the most mind boggling for me was for the fact he didnt have any technical background and he was able to organize a hackathon to develop his platform and scale operations... hearing his story on the other interview i watched he talk about that part but thanfully he made mention here. proudly urhobo!
I found clarity here. This convo will be on my repeat list💯. Thank you Peace for bringing Hanu on the show😘
Thank you for watching. 🎉
I don't think I have ever watched an interview till d end in my life but this was totally worth it. I'm inspired to the core. Hanu I know u may not see this but for this interview you have really changed my mind set and helped me through what I'm going through rn. Thanks a lot. I really look forward to doing big business with you in person
This is so far the best inspirational talk I have watched this year. I see Clarity, Confidence and Consistency at work.
Thank you for watching
Dp
This the best video you have ever made, pls drop a sequal...
Thank you😎
This is a day after Christmas 8:45 am. The second of his interview I'm watching today. I'm writing this because I feel it's a marking point. This is the message I need for 2022 and beyond. Thanks Hanu for sharing your story. And thanks Peace. This got into my bones.
I watched this until the end and I'm really inspired by your amazing mindset. I will put this down here that someday in the nearest future. I will have an opportunity to sit with you, shake hands and talk about tech and crypto in Africa and that day will be the biggest day of my life because you inspired me.
This guy is simply amazing...lots of lessons to learn from Hanu. Building such a great empire in Nigeria is truly amazing. This is the best founder I've listened to in the series.
Badman with the benzo... the best interview so far.... the young entrepreneur CEO gives a better vibes
My God... It is POSSIBLE. This came home to me.
I’m back again and again and again argh it never gets old.😩
Congratulations Hanu , you're a guru. You successfully leveraged on the common word NETWORK.
You successfully located the right people to grow ur idea.
You are a risk bearer, there's just a lot to deduce from this conversation. All I can say is congratulations bro, ride on.
I learnt a lot from this interview.. the way he talks gives me the vibe of silent confidence.. guys doing the most but choosing to maintain a low profile=BIGVIBE . and I know he’ll keep thriving, not even Nigeria will be able to stop his greatness , Welldone Hanu
Thank you for watching.
Bra! this dude is a positive risk taker. I also love how the interviewer listens and ask questions. Dude is worth $30 million choi! 🙆🏿♂️

🙏🙏🙏
Enjoyed this interview thoroughly.
Glad you did! Thank you for watching.
I think this has to be one of my best episodes of founders connect and I've watched all.
Thank you for watching 😊
Wow…one hour has never felt so short. I really wish this interview didn’t end. Hanu is a whole lot of vibes, inspiration, motivation, hardwork, believe, everything positive and overwhelming. I’m a big fan and I hope to meet him soon. I love the Patricia brand and I’d love to be a part of it. I’m no tech guru but I’ve got a mind boggling idea and vision I believe Hanu would key into. It’s never been done before and seeing that Hanu is a lover of new ideas and initiatives I’d most definitely love to sell this one to him. And hopefully he buys it and we create magic for a lifetime.
I don't even know where to start from in showing how much this showed clarity and it's really inspiring. Wishing Patrica the best going forward and thank Hanu for not holding anything back. This is what alot of us need right now. Alot of founders don't share their stories in detail to help people understand how they get from point A to B but this is really clear and everyone can connect. Thank you once again for bringing him onboard and for this great interview. Make I sha go check Patricia website biko if vacancy dey oooo😀😀, cos na this kin great mind fit inspire person....😀👏
