What are the odds Statistics tell us that African American males who grow up in a single-parent household are nine times more likely to drop out of high school and twenty times more likely to end up in prison than any other demographic. But what would it take for one young man not only to rise above those statistics but also become a Navy SEAL, actor, entrepreneur, writer, and person of faith In Transformed, Remi Adeleke takes readers back to stories from his childhood as Nigerian royalty, to losing his father early in life and being financially stripped of everything by the Nigerian government. He delves into being raised by a single mother in the Bronx and doesn't shy away from the illegal activities that threatened to derail his future. How could a person with this past end up where he is now And to go a step further, how could a person who barely graduated high school, couldn't swim, act or lead find great success in areas that require such skills Having gone through times of intense struggle, pressure, and failure, Adeleke answers those questions in his inspiring story of overcoming the odds, even when it didn't make sense; and ultimately experiencing true personal transformation.
