About Consultant
John Okocha is a storyteller with passion for documenting and showcasing authentic African and African-based stories. Storytelling has always been a passion for me. Whether it’s either photography, videography, documentary filmmaking or just verbal narration, my drive and purpose has been to tell the RIGHT African stories, the RIGHT way. This has led me to the length and breadth of Nigeria, from the most unnavigable slums to the most high-brow areas of urban centers, learning, gathering as well as documenting them for posterity.
