Kamardeen oyebode is hard of hearing since childhood and don’t really know what caused it.
He passed through conventional schools from primary up to higher Institution, he has never attended any special school.
The hard working Oyebode who live in Aba Alfa, Ibadan Oyo State, hailed from Akorede Local Council Development trained himself in the Oyo State Polytechnic in Ibadan while doing menial jobs here and there especially during his ND program and that was when he had contact with pure water industry where he had been working till last year.
“Inspite of my hardworking and curiosity I have been rejected by many companies because of my disability, Zenith bank, Gtbank, Costco Construction and Procter & Gamble are some of them. They all attested that I passed my written Interviews but they can’t employ me because of my hearing defect”.
Due to these rejections, he went back to work with pure water company. It is where he gathered experience in management and market as well as production of pure water.
Right now, he is wanting to be independent because many of those that have employed him are just taking advantage of his disability and they are using him.
“I want to have my own mini pure water distributorship but I don’t have any money to start. I have customers already to patronize me. A Ready factory to get the products, and a ready agreement with transport owner but finance to start is my major problem, I want to start small, I need the help of the public”.
