The story of TIKKKR

There is more context surrounding the name. But I will reserve that for another occasion. In early 2024, witnessing friends and others reach business milestones ignited a fire within him, fueling his vision to launch a clothing brand that would serve as a powerful platform to share his awe-inspiring journey of unshakeable resilience and faith in God. Tika is a street and fashion brand that embodies innovation and style. The name originated from the Tongan word TIKA. If you unfamiliar with Tonga, it's a Polynesian kingdom characterized by an archipelago of more than 170 islands, mostly uninhabited, with breathtaking white sandy beaches, flourishing coral reefs and dense tropical rainforests.

 TIKA signifying excellence or perfection, often expressed as 'You look tika, you have a tika life'. He crafted Tika by incorporating his kid's names with two additional K's. Tika’s 3 K' stands for Kendrick, Kyvan-James and Kayden, his three sons. In July 2024, he invited God to steer his journey, and everything in his life shifted towards a brighter, more fulfilling destiny. R, denotes Remember God from day one, reflecting his journey and struggles to provide for them daily. Now that's exceptional. For weeks, he held onto the vision of finding a supportive and inclusive church that would enrich his little family's spiritual journey. After conducting a thorough search, he discovered St Margaret's Hillsborough.

On his first Sunday at St Margaret's Hillsborough, the priest invited the congregation to hold up their Bibles, a few people held up their phones, likely displaying Bible verses. At which point he seized the opportunity to retrieve his phone and inquire about the concept describing God's power, starting with the three Omnis. Omnipotent: God is all-powerful. Omniscient: God is all-knowing. Omnipresent: God is everywhere at all times. That's when he uncovered a game changing revelation "Omnis of God". This message served as a motivational tool for his brand, and how God made every step of his journey easier.

The name Tika tells a story dedicated to his three loved ones; a story of solitude overcome by strength. As you connect with God, you will witness remarkable growth and beauty unfolding in your life. Tika’s testament provides a timely reminder to his sons and to us all: we should strive to do our best and entrust the outcome to God's will. Trust in God’s plan. you’re going to make it. Very soon. You will smile and say, "this is more than what I prayed for".
