Keynote Testimonials
On the 9th of December 2014, Onyi delivered his presentation; How to become a student of distinction™ to 300 of our pupils. Onyi was an engaging speaker who through his own life experiences was able get the students to reflect on their own attitude to school life. He promoted a ‘can do‘ message where students were encouraged to strive for excellence in everything they do. I recommend Onyi as a speaker to other schools as part of their Citizenship Education programme.

Onyi visited our class at the Peter Jones Enterprise Academy in Amersham, Buckinghamshire and delivered his keynote titled: How to become an entrepreneur of distinction™. Onyi’s quote, ‘an entrepreneur is a leader of excellence, trailblazer and pioneer who constantly brings change to their generation’ inspired me and others to become change makers and leaders in our chosen field. Onyi was a fantastic motivator and during the Q&A session, Onyi gave me specific goals to work towards achieving my short, mid and long term vision. In one word, amazing!

I would like to thank Onyi for his inspiring presentation which he delivered to our degree students at the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation. His personal journey of how he got to where he is despite facing all the challenges really hit home with our students and many are now making action plans of their own to achieve their goals. His talk on vision really inspired and challenged our students because they hadn’t really thought about life after graduation. He has really helped to empower and motivate our students and staff into “becoming eagles of excellence as opposed to pigeons of average” as he so articulately put it. Laura Cornell: Tottenham Hotspur Foundation.
Onyi certainly deserves the title of ‘keynote speaker’. He captivated the audience with his life changing story which allowed our young attendees to relate to him and serve him with the utmost level of respect. A constant inspiration, Onyi’s style and presentation fitted perfectly with the agenda of our Youth Entrepreneur Conference which in turn left the young people feeling reflective and energised. We want to say a big thank you to Onyi for adding value to our conference. Rich Visions Team.
Onyi was invited to speak and facilitate at our annual business seminar. His keynote presentation was truly inspirational and whilst facilitating the workshops, Onyi simplified the complex process of running a successful business. He talked about how to use social media as a tool to promote the owners business and increase brand awareness which was wholeheartedly received by all attendees. I believe Onyi will add value to any conference, leadership seminar or employee away-day. I was inspired by Onyi even before I met him and his attention to detail, meticulous approach and passion was more than enough for me. The feedback from attendees has being extremely positive and I have no hesitation in recommending Onyi as a keynote speaker. Yinka Shonowo: Business Manager PowerHouse Community Business Network.
I invited Onyi to speak at our 2013 Investwealth Business Dinner. It was a great evening because not only did Onyi inspire all attendees to strive for excellence, he also challenged them to become entrepreneurs of distinction as well. Everyone was so charged up by his inspirational, thought provoking and empowering keynote presentation that members of the group indicated they can’t wait to have him back to speak at our future events. Tunde Sodeinde: Founder of Investwealth Group.
We invited Onyi to facilitate the break out session for teenage boys at our ‘Father and Son’ event. Onyi was very approachable and was really good at facilitating the young boys session. I believe Onyi has a heart for young people and is passionate about helping young people fulfil their potential. Dupe Makinde: God’s Grace Foundation.
I would like to thank Onyi for speaking at our ‘Be Inspired’ event. We realised that there was no better person to teach and speak at our event and this proved right because all attendees were totally challenged and inspired by the content and substance of his presentation. He is a true inspiration to many and we are grateful for his message. Lola Fashanu.
It was great having Onyi at our school. A lot of students have been talking about how much of a privilege it was to be involved in the presentation. The school has not had anything like it before. It was our first time experiencing that kind of presentation. It not only motivated the students but it also inspired them to do better. Before the presentation, some of our students did not believe they could do the things they aspired to do but due to the inspiring words, teaching and interactive techniques Onyi used; they felt they could do whatever they dreamed to do. I have never seen our students so focused on doing better. Mark Babatunde: Enfield Grammar School.
We were so privileged to have Onyi present at the ‘Raise Your Game’ mastermind seminar. He is by far one of the most powerful and engaging speakers we have heard. His message on excellence really hit home and his passion and delivery resonated with everyone in the audience. This is a man that clearly knows his gift and presents it to the world with intent and impact. I am eternally grateful, and will definitely be taking on board everything that I learned from Onyi. Junior Ogunyemi.
Gone are the days when speakers speak at conferences, seminars and other establishments with just a nice suit and a catchy PowerPoint presentation to wow the audience. I believe speakers need to produce products of excellence that match what they are saying so in turn the audience can actually receive tangible evidence to go home with. Do you know speakers of mediocrity talk a good game while the speakers of distinction are game changers? ~ Onyi Anyado.
