Meet Olivia Ansell – Biography Olivia Ansell is an international entrepreneur whose millionaire mindset was born of necessity and bred of hunger. Growing up poor in the African country of Uganda, Ansell spent many nights lying awake, fantasizing the feeling of a full stomach and the pride of one day keeping her family out of poverty. Now a successful founder and owner of multiple seven-figure businesses, Ansell hopes to use her journey into entrepreneurship as a teaching assistant for the many women working to create and build profitable companies from their own ideas – a trait Ansell was forced to acquire as a child.

FLYER DESIGN BY A YOUNG INSPIRATIONAL ENTREPRENEUR – MR Peter Odu –
More than Dali, Rembrandt, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Picasso, Roy Lichtenstein is my main artistic inspiration.
My mother introduced me to his art well before I truly understood such things (I couldn’t have been older than eight when she was showing me his works in World Book Encyclopedia).
I first exhibited in a gallery when I was about 11 years old, again with encouragement from Mom. My parents taught me that pop art IS “proper art” regardless of what any blinkered art teachers said. They then both proceeded to buy me every age-appropriate comic book they could find (note to parents: comic books had me reading ahead of grade level my entire school life. They’re not all bad!! Think about it. Kids will read what they LIKE).
I was designing costumes and banners for carnivals in Nigeria when I was in my early teens.
I was 16 when I got my first graphics job with an advertising agency in Lagos.
I worked as a graphic artist while at college in Nigeria and the USA.
I started 9Ja Pop Art to explore my much suppressed artistic side. While working on a variety of art commissions for various clients, several original works based around the central theme of free expression came to mind. They comprise my “Let your Mojo Out” series. I am also designing works in my “Afrikkan Pantheon” series comprising original depictions of African deities and my “Rat Pack” series with anthropomorphized mice in exciting, adventurous settings.
The Salam Project are a cultural youth and community social enterprise who work in anti-youth crime. They work in the fields of knife crime, county lines, drug abuse, offending / re-offending extremism / radicalisation and permanent exclusion.
Due to the lockdown in March 2020, calls increased from parents, schools, carers, probation services, youth offending teams and social services. The Salam Project works predominantly in London (L.B. Brent L.B. Lambeth, L.B. Southwark, L.B. Lewisham, L.B. Haringey etc.) and Manchester (Longsight, Moss Side, Ardwick & Gorton) The Salam Project team have been involved with mentoring young people with various issues digitally. This means, they have been mentoring via Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, WhatsApp Video or GoogleHangouts.
Due to most of their clients are from African and African Caribbean communities the young people are from London and Manchester predominantly. All of The Salam Project’s mentors are of African and Afro Caribbean heritage. Who are also professionals and business entrepreneurs too.
All of the mentees are from African and Afro Caribbean heritage. Unfortunately many of the young people have issues with county lines, gangs, underachievement, drug addictionlow self esteem and depression.
Ismael Le South (Director of The Salam Project) says ‘The stats blatantly shows that Black youths are disproportionately permanently excluded from school, locked up in prison, wrongly diagnosed with special education needs disabilities, filling up the mental health asylums and this skunk is destroying our youth. We have to also mention that Black youths are over represented in knife crime and county lines too.
We could either moan all day or do something about it.’ He goes on further to say ‘As a youth worker and a British born Black man of African /Afro Caribbean heritage, I am honoured to work with 15 other inspiring people who are mentoring with me. The mentors got safeguarding /child protection training from The Faiths Forum. The mentor training was supplied by The Mentor Workshop. They are now getting requests from pupil referral units, schools, faith institutions, foster care facilities and mental health hubs.
The national lottery’s community fund is supporting the project. Some of the mentors are also tutoring too.
After the funding is finished in March they will be charging parents and organisations to keep their project sustainable.

Good day distinguished compatriots and compliments of the seasons.
I pray you are doing well and keeping safe. Please kindly permit me once more irrespective of your political affiliation to address you through this medium. ADC Diaspora Network (ADC-DN) is the Diaspora affiliate of the African Democratic Congress of Nigeria. ADC is currently the 3rd largest political party in Nigeria in terms of national spread, and the 4th in elected persons.
The ADC-Diaspora Network, wich is now inaugurated, is well integrated into the ADC structures as the 7th (Geopolitical) zone of the party with all the constitutional powers that are applicable to the 6 zones within the country. ADC-DN is created out of the desire of the visionary Leadership of ADC to interface properly with Nigerians in Diaspora across the 5 continents of the Globe and to enable ADC benefit from the best international practise of the Diaspora which is now needed as an indispensable catalyst in the transformation of our dear country Nigeria.
Our vision including but not limited to Youths empowerment, Knowledge transfer, Diaspora Voting 2023, true federalism, good governance, security of all Nigerians home and Abroad. There are over 12,000 elective positions to be filled come 2023 (President & VP, 36 state governors & deputies), 109 senators, 360 house of reps members, over 800 state legislators, nearly 800 local council chairpersons, and nearly 10,000 ward Councillors).
The opportunities for Diaspora to vie for elective positions and be the change we want are vast and possible. You do not have to immediately relocate to Nigeria to start your patriotic political journey. The year of the „Great Diaspora Returns“ starts today. The obvious takeaway from the just conclude 1st Global Roundtable (FGR) on the 12/12/2020 was the unmistakable desire and fire for something different that burned from voices and visions of all stakeholders and speakers.
The representatives of coalition of Nigerian Diaspora from the 5 continents of the World that participated at the Global event are United in saying that „Enough is Enough“!
If you share same Fire and Passion considering the current happenings in our dear country today, kindly get in contact (inbox me)

Sherill Fuller is a serial go getter, forward thinking visionary and mother of two.
This award winning mompreneur and qualified Social Worker/ mentor is a prime example of what it means to overcome and achieve.
As a former young woman and mother in Birmingham England; Sherill experienced first hand the obstacles that can come with wanting to start your own business or achieving a Career Goal.
This dynamic woman has not only been shortlisted to Audition for the BBC Hit TV Show The Apprentice Series 10, and was listed on the Mumpreneur 100 of Top Business Moms; she has been recognised for her commitment in supporting others into enterprise.

Sherill newest campaign is called “Sherill Talks Africa” on YouTube which focuses on encouraging the wider Diaspora and Returnees to visit and invest in the motherland. In the current climate it is essential that the wider community opens their mindset and looks at bringing skills home and investing to assist to build the continent and enable wealth to be built internationally amongst the community as a whole.
This can be done by visiting, investing, buying land or creating business the list goes on. This assists to boost the economy by creating jobs and creating alternative wealth strategies. Many people in the UK and beyond are finding it hard to get onto the property ladder or looking at ways to create their pension fund, but many are overlooking the great opportunities in the motherland.
There are other nationalities investing fully and it’s time for the community as a whole to get involved in my opinion and bring our skills home and build Mamma Africa Together.
