Media personality, Chude Jideonwo has gotten an international appointment.

Chude took to social media to excitedly announce his latest appointment as Creative-in-Residence at the London School of Economics.

Sharing the good news, he wrote:

“So I have a big announcement.

“I thought they were going to wait until the more formal announcement, but two weeks ago they let the cat out of the bag:)

“I have just been appointed Creative-in-Residence at the London School of Economics. The kind of unexpected news that blows your mind.

“Many years ago I made a decision that changed my life: Focus on the work, never hustle, and let the universe do the rest.

“After Yale and Oxford and all of that, I decided I would no longer apply for any fellowships or residencies. I wanted only to be invited – based on the impact of our work. I was almost certain it would take about 10 years for any of that to happen (I mean, who do you think you are?) and I was comfortable with that consequence I would focus on the work I had chosen.

“And then, in the midst of inevitable doubt, the universe always sends a big message of affirmation. I am honoured and thankful.

“I look forward to collaborating with the school’s faculty, students and networks to accelerate the growth of the creative economy across Africa. The work continues❤️”
