First NFT on Dr. Tony Elumelu, CFR



I am producing the first NFTs on the most outstanding Nigerian Achievers and other outstanding achievers in the world I call nation builders and optimists of visionary leadership. 

You can see all my NFTs on https://nftmyimage.com/@nigeriadaily

These are the frst NFTs and NFT Series ever done on outstanding Nigerians by a Nigerian artist and writer on the blockchain
I have done the NFTs in Fine Arts photography. 

The art photos are available to Dr. Tony Elumelu to frame them for art decor for his office and residence.
NFTs last longer than photos, videos and films that are not on the blockchain. 

The NFTs will be in the decentralized InterPlanetary File System.






The rotating cube can be screensavers and the cube of his portrait can be made into any size for tables, reception homes, offices and buildings from 1ft square to 50ft square.

Dr  Anthony Onyemaechi Elumelu, MFR,CON, CFR (born 22 March 1963) is a Nigerian economist, and philanthropist. He chairs Heirs Holdings, Transcorp and is the Founder of The Tony Elumelu Foundation.

Following his retirement from the  United Bank for Africa in 2010, Elumelu founded The Tony Elumelu Foundation. The Tony Elumelu Foundation promotes entrepreneurship in Africa. The Tony Elumelu Foundation’s belief that the private sector’s role is critical for Africa’s development is hinged on the economic philosophy of Africapitalism, which was introduced by Elumelu; "that the African private sector has the power to transform the continent through long-term investments, creating both economic prosperity and social wealth.

In 2015, Elumelu committed US$100 million to create 10,000 entrepreneurs across Africa over the next 10 years through the Tony Elumelu Foundation Entrepreneurship Programme - a Pan-African entrepreneurship initiative designed to empower African entrepreneurs through a multi-year programme of training, funding, and mentoring.
