I'm sharing this post
for two reasons: One, to introduce Fuji to Nigerians so we can celebrate
him and two, to discuss if it's OK for a 3 year old to already have a
career. He has an exhibition coming up so yes, he has a career! CNN profiled the young budding photographer on Inside Africa yesterday and below is what they wrote about Lil Fuji...
While most children his age in Nigeria - and the rest of the world - are more concerned with their toys than a career, Onafujiri "Fuji" Remet has already embarked on his mission to become a professional photographer.
Proud dad Pius Kugbere Remet sent in these images of his talented young son posing with family and at work in Lagos.
Himself an artist and graphic designer, he says Fuji's inspiration came from the work of his creative family.
See more photos of Fuji at work after the cut...Little Fuji even has an exhibition coming up in Lagos on June 8. Not bad for a three-year-old.

Above are some of the photographs the 3 year old shot. Amazing really,
but let's share our opinion on the issue I brought up. Should a three
year old be more concerned about his toys or a career? You know what
they say; catch them young, but how young is too young?
