Real people use Real Names - Richard Okunola
About 90% of the real great people in the world use their real names (e.g Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Robert Kiyosaki, Stephen Covey, Yemi Osinbajo, Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe, Jacob Zuma, Bob Gass, etc .

Be prepared for greatness, "Real People use Real Names" - Richard Okunola
