Your colleagues believe that you are a stand-up guy. In your own words, who do you think a stand-up guy is?<\/strong>
\nA stand-up guy is reliable and dependable \u2013 qualities that are a bit hard to find these days. I put my all into everything I do to deliver my best always. I work hard and play hard and leave no one behind because I believe we can all win bigger as a functional team.<\/p>\n

Describe yourself in three words.<\/strong>
\nKind, Tenacious, Accountable.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re often called Oba by your colleagues, why? Do you have any other nicknames?<\/strong>
\nNot really. Growing up I had always been referred to by my surname \u201cOba-Okojie\u201d or simply \u201cOkojie\u201d, so I am used to it. My brothers and close friends call me \u201cTobo\u201d \ud83d\ude0a.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve also heard you\u2019re called \u2018Full Option\u2019 what does it mean?<\/strong>
\nNo Comment. \ud83d\ude0a I really don\u2019t know where this came from. I also heard it too and I was shocked. Maybe you can tell me what it means?<\/p>\n

What drives you? The work you do, the man you\u2019ve become, what would you say is your driving force?<\/strong>
\nGod drives me. The dignity in hard work drives me. My devotion to my wife and kids drives me. My ambition to be \u201cSoft like Tony\u201d drives me. I believe strongly that I need to be a good example to those around me & people that look up to me, it\u2019s the only true legacy.<\/p>\n

How long have you been an HH Person and what would you say have been the highlights of your time at HH Group?<\/strong>
\nOne very rewarding and fantastic year!!! It\u2019s been all I thought it would be and more. I feel the HH Group has some of the finest minds that I have had the privilege to learn from and work with, in my entire working career. I love the energetic and driven culture; it truly gives me a reason to come to work every day.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s one thing you\u2019d want people to know about you?<\/strong>
\nI cannot dance to save my life \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

What moment would you say is\/was your defining moment as a stand-up guy?<\/strong>
\nWow. I can\u2019t really say. Maybe my colleagues would do better justice with this. I just believe understanding of the big picture that drives my willingness to help and put in the work always qualifies me as a stand-up guy. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

What do you do in your free time?<\/strong>
\nWatch Series\/documentaries, read\/learn new things, laundry\/cleaning, fool around with my wife & kids <\/p>\n

What\u2019s your philosophy on life?<\/strong>
\nOnce you understand that life isn\u2019t meant to be easy\/perfect, you begin to cope better with life and can deal with anything.<\/p>\n

What would you like other men to know?<\/strong>
\nTake pride in what you do, believe in yourself but never be overconfident or conceited. Be open & listen to feedback and learn to adapt to various situations as fast as you can. Always be thankful and show gratitude, this way you wouldn\u2019t get too upset & angry all the time. Life isn\u2019t easy or perfect. Accept that and deal with it. Be solution driven and always find ways to add value. Develop yourself and play to your strengths. Be accepting of people and follow peace with all men (or at least try to\u2026. \ud83d\ude0a).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
