SEGUN AIYESAN

Segun Aiyesan is a self-taught artist and has been at it professionally since 1997. His fascination with nature and colours started quite early. As a young boy, his favourite hobby was collecting comics and trying to draw the characters. “I love art. It propelled me to be better at many other things I had to do alongside, since I was free to indulge in it, as long as nothing else suffered. My artistic development was actually channeled towards self-fulfillment rather than perpetuating a career direction.” Segun went on to study Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Segun Aiyesan lives in Port Harcourt

“…Life is meaningless until we apply virtuous substance to it. The ideals and values we hold, the desires and the efforts we place at dignifying our time on earth, ascribe robustness to our existence and give us a sense of direction to our journey. My lens is grossly limited in the scope of perception, but I think time is a gift that we need to unwrap and enjoy, with all its vacillations and attendant uncertainties. It is a responsibility to be the hero of our lives. I don’t know the size of the bucket, but I just dropped one more pebble in it…” – Segun Aiyesan 18 March 2023

Segun Aiyesan’s works are produced from a persona of hard work, passion, quest, and artistic eloquence. Aiyesan works with pastels, watercolors, oils, and acrylics to reveal the deeply psychological approach he has to his art and his passionate interest in the life of the mind as well as the world around him. @segun_aiyesan @discovaartcentre on @campaignafrica_

Channeling wealth to good use

I am a vivacious social entrepreneur, who is passionate about social equity and contributing towards the sustainable growth of Africa.
 
I am the CEO and Co-Founder of Africa Global Radio, an online radio station and portal based in Ghana. I see Africa Global Radio as the perfect vehicle to unearth the diversity of positive narratives on Global Africa. 
 
I am one of the founders, board member and the Director of the Curriculum Enrichment Programme for the first international school in Northern Ghana – Savannah International Academy. I put together programs in line with our vision to nurture young minds to be the future leaders of Africa.
 
I run a handicraft enterprise, where I bring together underprivileged artisans to produce and supply musical instruments and artefacts to Fair Trade Organisations in Europe.
 
Over the years I have had the opportunity to build a diverse network of relationships that have enriched my life and provided me with a variety of experiences, perspectives and understandings that have been imperative to the vision I have.
 
Our vision for Campaign Africa & Africa Global Radio, and everything I do, is to provide authentic narratives on Global Africa, which will inspire the next generation to be the change we wish to see, and ultimately contribute to transformational change in Africa.

Born on Africa Day in the year-themed “Open Skies for Africa”; I am a social activist within the Sub-Saharan cultural and creative industry.

For two decades I have innately collaborated with counterparts as well as social enterprises that resonate with my Pan-African vision.

In so doing, growing my reach across the continent, prompting me into creating systems and networks for African produce.

I am the founder of The Elevators Creative Concepts [TECC] specializing in research & development, live music & dynamic content production, as well as project management.

Through TECC, I have travelled as part of an intercultural exchange program to help grasp the changing cultural landscape of today’s creative Africa; and continue to develop essential competencies to render an eco-conscious and culturally enriching Africa Tour Circuit.
