MY MANTRA

Ok U Go

It’s not just a clever play on my last name; it’s a mantra. Ok U Go embodies movement, action, and striving. When I say Ok U Go, I want you to reach your highest potential by becoming more efficient, productive, and embracing the journey of personal development.

Just A Nigerian Boy With A Dream

I am the oldest of four siblings, born in Hayward, California, proudly raised in Sacramento as a first generation Nigerian American.

For over a decade, I played over 200 competitive matches across multiple teams including Philadelphia, Orlando, Kansas City, Portland, Austin Bold, and the USMNT Youth Teams including the 2012 Olympic Qualifying Team.

I represented my teammates as a Team Captain and Player Representative, successfully negotiated improved player rights, and winning trophies like Open Cup Champion (2015), Western Conference Winners (2017), Copa de Tejas (2019) and others.

CLASS OF 2021

FORBES 30 UNDER 30

Playing professionally meant forgoing his hard earned full ride scholarship to UCLA, a choice unfathomable to his Nigerian born parents. Needless to say his mother made him promise he would finish his degree. Amobi kept his word. His mom is happy to report that not only does he have a Bachelors degree, he has a Masters too. He has studied at incredible institutions such as UCLA, University of Louisville, Harvard Business School, Columbia University and more.
