Nigerian Fashion icon, Seyi Adekunle, also known as Seyi Vodi, has opened a multibillion naira fashion workshop. The fashion designer has worked with top dignitaries and several entertainment stars, including Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, K1, Portable, 2baba, and others.
In a social media post, the 50-year-old businessman described his 24-year journey of tenacity, enthusiasm, and unrelenting hard work.
The fashion icon has attributed his success to years of hard work and dedication.
“My name is Seyi Adekunle Vodi. I’ll be 50 in July. I started Vodi just three years after Philip Plein began his own fashion empire. While I’ve done extraordinarily well for myself, in the context of the world, there is no big deal about my numbers and successes.“
Vodi also replied critics who has question his source of wealth.
“I’ve heard people ask, ‘Is it only fashion that is giving him all this money?’ They ask from a place of want, lack, penury, ignorance, and excruciating poverty… If our society was one where people generally prospered, we wouldn’t be so hateful and suspicious of success.”
“I do sleepless nights, keep vigils, travel across borders, I sweat, think and work hard… This is the secret I know. This is what has prospered me.”
