Afterwards, he was enrolled in some fashion and styling courses in the School of Style in New York and received a certificate. With the knowledge in both fashion and business, Swanky went on to become the fashion icon that he is today. 

Beginning of the Career

Soon after he received his certificate and degrees, he went on to establish his fashion brand, Swanky Signatures Styling. Under his banner, he started by styling his friends and acquaintances, who were left charmed by his styling. 

He soon started to get fame in the Nigerian entertainment industry and started to work with some of the most famous names in movies, music, and politics. His clienteles include names like Mercy Eke, Idris Elba, Goodluck Jonathan, and Tiwa Savage. 

He also went on to win some notable awards like the Most Influential Stylist in Africa at the Abryanz Style and Fashion Awards, the Best Dressed Male at the African Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards, and the Fashion Stylist of the Year at the City People Awards.

Like his personal life and family background, not much about his love has come into the public eye, and Swanky has maintained silence on making any of his relationships public. By whatever available in the public domain, it seems that he proposed to his girlfriend Yvonne Nwosu in London, who is also a fashion designer. The news got some heat after she shared some of the photos online. 

Major Sources of Income and Net Worth
