<p>A popular Hausa adage says, &#8216;in kaji wane ba banza ba&#8217;, literally meaning a person&#8217;s popularity is a product of their hard work. There is no better way to listen to story than to hear it &#8216;from the horse&#8217;s mouth&#8217;. For the first time many of us would hear from Prof. Yusuf Adamu who as a Guest Speaker, humbly outpoured his life experiences.</p>
<p>The date was Thursday 4th August 2022 &; the occasion was titled &#8216;Inspiring Leadership Reflection Interactive Series,ILERIS&#8217;. Aiming to groom young generation on practical experiences, it is a series leadership training programme, sponsored by the Centre for Information Technology &; Development, CITAD.</p>
<p>Just like any other successful personality, the Professor&#8217;s journey to leadership is a mixture of good and not-so-easy stuffs. Imagine a child at tender age of 12 is taken to Koko &; Zuru respectively, to school there (some 700km away from home). One would unrelentingly ponders on how such a child could fare well &; acclimatize with an entirely new settings of terrain &; culture. This goes contrary to what is obtainable nowadays where parents carve shortcuts to life of their children. But Prof,&#8217;s family encouraged and supported this newfound &#8216;adventure&#8217;. They most likely foresaw some promising leadership instincts in this young school pupil.</p>

<p>Prof,&#8217;s submission at the gathering has shaped my perception of what leadership is. In ordinary public eye, &#8216;leaders are born&#8217; &; leadership qualities are &#8216;instinct&#8217;. However, Prof, argued that for someone to acquire required leadership qualities, they need to work ahead of what is expected. Thus, the definition of leadership according to him shouldn&#8217;t be reduced to which is inclined to politics but be made broad &; simple. This is because &#8216;everyone is a leader in his own right&#8217;.</p>
<p>Perhaps, the Prof, better leadership well-doings are derived from intellectual arena. At a point, he likened his intellectual sojourns to a tripods settings. While each of his passionate discipline, ie &#8216;Geography, Hausa &; General Knowledge represents a leg&#8217;, his persons sits at the top. In effects, anybody in similar situation can derive worthy inspiration from below. An ever ready counsel Prof, would offered people, at slightest opportunity is &#8216;read &; read&#8217; not only in oneself speciality but &#8216;widely&#8217;. &#8216;When you read a lot, you won&#8217;t easily be manipulated&#8217;, he told the August gathering.</p>
<p>A quality leadership is manifested in its achievements. But successful leaders find it difficult to give-in to &#8216;self a glorification&#8217;, as observed by a commentator in the event. On this note a request by another commentator was made for a follow-up talk so that the speaker can intensively discuss his experiences at various position he has held both local, national &; international. A request which organizers seemed to have consented to.</p>
