Some entrepreneurs are born with a spark that never quite goes out. Ahmad Yusuf Maidoki, a young businessman from Kano, Nigeria, is one of them. His journey from selling biscuits as a child to running a thriving Apple products store shows what happens when determination meets the right skills.
From an early age, Ahmad displayed a sharp business instinct. As a boy, he sold biscuits to classmates and neighbors. During his undergraduate years, he pushed further selling shoes and wristwatches, and even learning to cut hair to earn an income. Each hustle sharpened his sense for opportunity and taught him the value of hard work and customer relationships.
But Ahmad knew that success in the modern world would require more than determination. It would take digital skills. That realization brought him to ENGAUSA Global Tech Hub, where he enrolled in the Digital Literacy Skill-Up Program. There, he immersed himself in Digital Marketing, Graphic Design, Video Editing, Digital Photography, and Blogging tools designed to help young people thrive in a fast-changing marketplace.
These skills became the secret engine of his next chapter. Today, Ahmad runs his own store specializing in Apple products, bringing premium technology closer to local customers. He applies what he learned at ENGAUSA every day from designing compelling visuals to marketing his store online and creating engaging content that keeps his customers coming back. His grasp of digital marketing helps him reach buyers far beyond his immediate neighborhood, while graphic design and video editing allow him to present his brand professionally and stand out in a crowded market.
Ahmad’s story is more than just a tale of business growth; it’s a powerful reminder that with the right skills, a determined young person can transform small hustles into a thriving enterprise. The foundation he built at ENGAUSA continues to fuel his journey proving that when practical digital skills meet an entrepreneurial spirit, the possibilities are limitless.
