Obaro
Obaro is a name from Nigeria that means ‘moving forward’. It’s also a guy who looks like he stepped out of a magazine and never lets anything stop him.
Obaro came to school with a bruise on his face but still smiled like he won.
He told me he was going to be a billionaire someday. I said, ‘You’re moving forward, so you better make it happen.’
Even when the teacher gave him a D, Obaro just said, ‘I’m moving forward, and I’m not stopping.’
