About Us
At the core of our understanding lies the concept of a gene—a fundamental unit of heredity. Genes are the carriers of genetic information, passed down from parents to their offspring. They play a pivotal role in shaping an individual’s traits, characteristics, and even predispositions.
Now, let’s focus on MyGreen GENE. Imagine it as the “National Unit of Heredity” specific to Nigeria. Just as genes carry the legacy of generations, MyGreen GENE embodies the essence of Nigerian identity, culture, and excellence. When a Nigerian parent imparts this intangible yet powerful heritage to their child, they are passing on not just physical traits, but also a rich tapestry of values, resilience, and unique qualities.
The visionary behind this endeavour is Adewumi Adisa, a passionate young Nigerian. In May 2015, Adewumi initiated the My Green Gene project with a clear purpose: to safeguard Nigeria’s true essence and elevate its global reputation. Through this project, Adewumi aims to celebrate the remarkable contributions of Nigerians worldwide, fostering pride and unity within the Nigerian community.
So, MyGreen GENE isn’t merely an abstract concept; it’s a living legacy—a bridge connecting past, present, and future. It symbolizes the resilience, creativity, and brilliance that define Nigeria and its people.
