Born Standing - A Memoir

Born Standing is a powerful memoir that traces the extraordinary journey of Kelechukwu Akaniro, a boy born into hardship, raised by faith, and forged by adversity. From the bustling streets of Lagos to life-altering moments in boardrooms across continents, this deeply personal narrative explores themes of resilience, divine timing, legacy, and identity.

Anchored by the unwavering love of his mother and the strength of his wife Ada, his flamekeeper and partner in purpose, Kelechukwu shares the raw truth of growing up in Nigeria, navigating loss, overcoming systems meant to break him, and ultimately choosing to rise.

More than a story of survival, Born Standing is a tribute to the decisions that define us, the sacrifices that shape us, and the shared struggles that build something greater. It’s a story of faith, fatherhood, vision, and the enduring power of standing, boldly, purposefully, and together.
