“The fact that you come from a different culture enables you to see things from a different perspective. In addition, being an expatriate pushes you to go the extra mile as you are mindful of your status and can therefore not take the opportunities you have been presented with for granted.” Olukune is also a pastor at His People Church, Johannesburg. He believes in the will of God and that the destiny of Baraka Bora is to become a global organisation that will cover much more than what the entity currently offers. The company has also been registered in Kenya and hopes to commence operations there in the near future. “I have this vision of myself standing in New York surrounded by friends and colleagues cutting a red ribbon to mark the opening of our offices there. I am inspired by the likes of Brian Joffe of Bidvest who turned a personal project into an 80 billion Rand empire through smart investments and diversification.” - Keith Kundai
