About Adekunle

My two legal names are Adekunle Alabi. I am the fourth child in a family of four. I believe i am right if i declare that i was born into the family of care-givers. My mother was a professionally trained Nurse and she had long esterblished the OLD PEOPLE'S HOME before i was born. My mother discovered that running a OLD PEOPLE'S HOME with a staff of ten can really be time-consuming and so handed be over to my grandmother at the age of five to enable her ( ie my grandmother) pay more attention to the issue of proper upbringing and good education for me. Here i went through all relevant stages of education and graduated from the University.I did a few professional courses,attended seminals and workshops all in the field of Marketing and Public Relations, before returning to render full time assistance in the OLD PEOPLE'S HOME run expertly by my mother. My full time job here fell into two parts: a. I was fully in charge of the marketing activities, which well handled ensured a free flow of clients into the facility. b. I was also involved in the direct care of clients whether in bathing, grooming, medication reminders, recreation excercise, toileting and some other special cases. This obviously endeared me to clients and grew the business in leaps and bounds. I am of the school of thought that committed care-givers are those in the service of helping people because they feel it is a calling on their life and not a means of livelihood.Care-givers in this class exhibit good chara
