I had the pleasure of officially welcoming Chef Bison, a Michelin-star chef, in Nigeria for the first time.

This moment was beyond welcoming a world-class chef. It brought me closer to one of the visions we had when we started The Delborough, to make DANI the first Michelin-star restaurant in Nigeria and West Africa.

I unapologetically invest in continuous learning because excellence is never accidental. So when he asked about the certificates on my wall, i explained that they represent my belief that growth never stops.

Having Chef Bison experience what we are building reminded me that when you dare to dream, believe, and relentlessly pursue a vision, it gradually becomes reality.

I was also excited to receive and model our briefcase and headphones merchandise ahead of their release.

Remember, every great vision starts with believing it is possible.

Happy Birthday Your Excellency, Governor Prince Bassy Edet Otu.
I join the good people of Cross River State in celebrating a great leader. @crossriverstate

The Bible says in Proverbs 29:2, “When the righteous is on the throne, the people rejoice.”

In such a short time, Your Excellency, you have demonstrated that leadership is not merely about holding a position but about making a difference, inspiring hope, and laying the foundation for a brighter future. Your strides in governance are worthy of recognition and celebration.

As you mark another year, may God grant you greater wisdom, renewed strength, sound health, and the grace to continue serving the people with excellence and integrity.

Happy Birthday once again your Excellency. May the years ahead bring even greater accomplishments, lasting legacies, and more reasons for the people of Cross River State to rejoice. by @stanleyuzochukwu

“Kings will come to the brightness of thy rising.” - Isaiah 60:3 (KJV)

When the vision for The Delborough @thedelborough was first conceived, this was the Scripture the Lord placed in my heart.

At @dani.restaurant Sunday Brunch, i looked around the restaurant and couldn’t help but pause and feel grateful.
What was once a vision has become a reality right before our very eyes.

Having the privilege of sharing brunch at @dani.restaurant with distinguished leaders like @officialmasisi President Mokgweetsi Masisi of Botswana , President Goodluck Jonathan @_goodluckjonathan and President Olusegun Obasanjo @chiefolusegun is
an experience I do not take for granted.

There is something special about watching a dream evolve into something people can experience and enjoy.

Sometimes, all you can do is look around, remember where you started and say:
“Thank You, Lord.”

And Dani… what a transformation.
Have you noticed the new look? by @stanleyuzochukwu

Today, we celebrate a rare gem at 50, Delian Blessing,our Operations Manager at The Delborough Lagos.

The greatest gift someone, especially an entrepreneur can ask for is the gift of real people. People who are aligned and carry the vision as if it were their own.
At Stanel Group, the culture we have built is staff living and working together as one big family.

Delian Blessing has embodied this. She has been unwavering in her support of The Delborough Lagos and this vision; going over and beyond, again and again. An apt definition of a vision bearer.

She belongs to that rare kind who work behind the scenes without needing to be seen or applauded yet remain loyal, ready, and committed.

When I heard she was turning 50, I asked myself what could we give her that would truly say we love and honour her?

Then I remembered that her son was studying in the UK and they hadn’t seen each other in years.
My wife and I decided to fly him to Nigeria as a special birthday surprise.

Watching them reunite was such a beautiful and emotional moment for everyone.

Delian Blessing is an extraordinary woman, and she deserves every bit of love and honor. She is one of the people who truly make The Delborough run smoothly.

Happy 50th birthday, Delian Blessing. Your best days are ahead of you, and your worst days are behind you.

May this new chapter be filled with joy, fulfilment, beautiful memories, and the reward of every life you have touched.

You are truly family and we love you! by @stanleyuzochukwu

No one succeeds alone. Every one of us has been helped by someone because God doesn’t come down by himself to answer our prayers, he uses people to lift, guide and connect us.
So no man can take the glory for another man’s success.

However, whenever I have the opportunity to speak, I always share my #CoscharisStory. Anyone who has listened to me speak knows that I cannot tell my trajectory story without mentioning my mentor, Dr Cosmas Maduka @cosmasmadukaofficial

We recently had the privilege of sitting on the same panel at the just concluded IGOC, and I do not take this for granted. It was a wonderful time with God’s people.

Never downplay the help, access or connections you received from others. Ingratitude is foolishness. People who trivialize the help you’ve offered them are ungrateful, and ungrateful people are great fools.

Think of someone who has helped you in the past. Appreciate them today and tag them on this post. by @stanleyuzochukwu

Over 30 years ago, as a young boy growing up, I couldn’t wait to watch KICC.
I remember seeing this
handsome man on tv, with his nice haircut and asking my dad, “Who is this man, how can I meet him?” My dad told me he was based in the UK and lived in London.
At the time, I never imagined that many years later, I would not only have the privilege of meeting Pastor Matthew , but would also have the honour of being invited by him and KICC to share my story and testify to what God has done in my life.

I want to specially thank Pastor @matthewashimolowo.official for the lives he has touched and the impact he has made over the years.

I look forward to being back again soon, where we will have more time to share, connect, and enjoy more beautiful moments in the presence of God.

Indeed, if you think well, you thank well. by @stanleyuzochukwu

This week, we visited three of our locations, and by the grace of God, we are giving Jos location, our foremost location, a facelift.

It was a great opportunity to speak with our staff in Jos, thank them for their diligent work, and to share the news of benefits such as staff bus, HMO and so on they will be receiving soon.

I also had the privilege of hosting my beloved brother, Pastor Brian, a great man of God whom God is using mightily all over the globe.
He came in from the US to minister in the East, and I had the privilege of receiving him and hosting him in Abuja, where we were both set to attend the International Ministers Flaming Fire Conference.

What an absolute pleasure and honour it was to have him with us.

Pastor Brian takes great care of us whenever we are in Ghana, and it was an opportunity for us to show him how much we honour, appreciate and love him.

Welcome to Nigeria, Pastor Brian @brianamoateng. It is truly a pleasure and an honour to have you with us. God bless you, my brother. by @stanleyuzochukwu

Happy birthday MOG,wishing you heavens best in JESUS NAME @realjerryeze by @stanleyuzochukwu

I had the privilege of attending the wedding celebration of Saraya and Bawa in Marbella, hosted by General TY Danjuma and Mummy Daisy as I fondly call her.

It was a beautiful gathering but beyond the celebration, I found myself reflecting deeply on the quality of people who gathered to celebrate this family.

I take lessons from every situation and one of the greatest lessons I took away from this gathering was the power of impact.

I thought about people who consistently show up for others, support people’s journeys, celebrate their milestones, and use their influence to make a difference, Mummy Daisy is one of such people.

From consistently supporting the Delborough Lagos to the official commissioning of my wife’s flagship store @aprilbykunbi, to always showing up for people; she has demonstrated what it means to be present in people’s lives.

It got me thinking about the kind of legacy we should endeavor to build. One of Impact, because Success is not only measured by what we achieve, but by the lives we touch, be someone others can count on.
Show up for people, sometimes your presence is the greatest gift you can give.

Use your influence, your position and platform as an opportunity to lift others.

Most importantly, Build a good name. One of the greatest gifts we can leave our children is a name that opens doors because of the honour, integrity and goodwill attached to it.

Wealth, titles and achievements are important, but the question is, What will people remember about us when we are no longer in the room?

May we build lives of impact, relationships of value, and names that our children will be proud of.

Congratulations once again to the families of Saraya and Bawa.
May their union be blessed with love and joy. by @stanleyuzochukwu
