#MEET De Rehoboth Therapeutic

This is a short interview we conducted with Kwomo, the creator of De Rehoboth Therapeutic. If you like this project and would like to vote for it, click here.


1. Please, tell us a bit about yourself: where are you from and what is your background?

I am a young from Nigeria, a medical student and a self-motivated and enthusiastic alternative therapy professional with a positive attitude. Extensive experience in the area of building relationship and rapport with clients and colleagues.
Being an entrepreneur is great because it makes me a better person. I set more goals for myself to accomplish for personal and professional reasons.
The best part about owning my own business is being able to choose the people I surround myself with: employees, suppliers. I choose people with positive energy whom I respect and trust. It makes the work a lot more fun.
My love for being an entrepreneur has changed from a love of being my own boss to a love for the process of change. I now realize my job description can change every two to three months. My core values connote: valor to shape a better future, service to humanity, committed in heart and in mind, integrity, and Excellence.
I got an education — on people, on life, on growing up, being a leader, being selfless and on being me instead of someone else.
I have created an office environment where my team and I can stay healthy — we work standing, sitting or stretched out on the floor. We hang upside down on our inversion table. We bring healthy meals. And we always have good chocolate on hand.
Becoming an entrepreneur has given me a unique and remarkable opportunity to reconnect with and assist people.

2. Can you describe your idea or project in two sentences?

It is a holistic healthcare solution for low-income families, we help people lower their healthcare costs by reducing their need for healthcare.

3. How did you get your idea or concept?

Years back as a child raised in a poor home, I often return to the hospital after being discharged as I was always unable to fully recover in my home environment and as I grew up seeing others pass through same challenge of treatment and relapse, I saw the need to create an alternative healthcare solution and this led to the creation of DE REHOBOTH THERAPEUTIC in October, 2014, at De Rehoboth we help individuals take active part in the maintenance of their health and in the treatment of their disorders through a more natural approach to healing, this transcends the traditional perspective of disease as a simple matter of biology but espouses different dimensions of health at once including psychological, social and biological with a blueprint made in conjunction with the families that outline the major goal which a family should aim to achieve in the basic pillars of healthcare.

4. What is unique about your idea/project and how does it benefit mankind?

DE REHOBOTH opted for much safer pricing strategy by offering better quality products at lower cost for the benefit of the good health of the people and projecting themselves as “No profit company”. Most of the DE REHOBOTH products are 15-20% cheaper compared to the leading brands forcing many of its competitor to launch offers and promotions to counter its rising popularity. Instead of outsourcing, DE REHOBOTH has flourished on a “backward integration model” having direct interaction with our farmers to cultivate and grow various herbal ingredients as per their requirement. To the best of my knowledge we are the only anti-poverty holistic health care solution developed in Nigeria and run by the member of the civil society rather than compete with medical professionals we complement their efforts thus making them more effective for we utilize a centralized approach that focuses on the patient over long-term empowering them to become socially and economically self-sufficient.

5. Describe yourself as an entrepreneur in one sentence

Empathy: I am committed in heart and in mind

6. How do you deal with people that doubt your abilities/initiatives?

I remain positive and confident, with time they will see reasons to believe in my initiative

7. Where does your passion lie?

My passion is a vision of healthcare is a system that works for everyone with patients at the center, I believe that a different kind of healthcare system is possible– one that addresses all patient's basic resource needs as a standard part of quality care. not just to manage diseases

8. What are you afraid of or what keeps you up at night?

The overwhelming amount of workload. As a small business owner,l need to wear many hats – the sheer number of which can drive only me to insomnia.

9. According to you, money is a synonym for.....

Fund, capital

10. If you could rid the world of three things, what would they be?

Illiteracy, poverty, ill-health

11. What are the benefits you take from the Entrepreneurship Campus?

Access to free online entrepreneurship training that has equipped me with beneficial knowledge.

12. What do you like more about the Entrepreneurship Campus?

The strategies it has created in empowering young entrepreneurs to create a sustainable world.

Your opinion on what you like about the YCEC@ de rehoboth therapautic is impressive. Being a young person I am quite interested in creating the world, I desire to see and live. I believe that if all young persons have this mind, we will surely recreate the world because we are the future generation. If we recreate our world now, tomorrow will live in the world we desire and our children will see the world in a different perspective from what we are presently seeing and living.
“You may live in the world as it is, but you can still work to create the world as it should be” Michelle Obama

I hope it is not just a wish but it is accompanying with actions because it is actions that can create the world we so desire to live in.

Thank you campus administrator for including this item in your interview questions. It serves as my niche in this interviews.

@Rehoboth Therapy. “The strategies it has created in empowering young entrepreneurs to create a sustainable world”.
Indeed Campus competition is really a school and it has actually created a lot of opportunities to the youths in entrepreneurship. Through the campus strategies, so many have come to really understand entrepreneurship

Recommendable work Kwomo. We need such initiatives to serve the low-income families dominant in majority of the African countries.
