    Do You Deal With Excessive Workloads?

    That one is a very good strategy if you can follow it. I face excessive workload sometimes, especially when the deadline is near. The thing is when you work from home, people think you are always available. They can mess up your time.

    What's the last thing you paid for?

    The last thing I pay for was the transport to work this morning. Before then, the last big thing I pay for is my data subscription.

    Do You Enjoy Reading Autobiographies and Biographies

    I like biographies of heroes. Those kind of books show the struggle behind their success. It gives me hope that even with all the issues here and there, you can still make it.

    Which one is worst : Mouth Odour or Body Odour?

    This is funny but a serious question. There is no way to conceal a body odour, it follows you everywhere. But the truth is that both are bad. Mouth odour can destroy yourl relationship. Imagine you talking with your babe and your breath smell like garlic and onion. The romance will die quickly.

    Did you graduate from the university?

    I graduated from the uni many years ago. But the thing is that the certificate does not guarantee you work. After graduation, I struggled for many years before I decided to start my own business. The degree is just sitting there like a decoration.

    What's the question you wish people stop asking you?

    One of the questions that annoys me is "when will you marry?" This question was thrown at me thousands of times before I got married. My aunties would ask me that same question in every family gathering. It's so crazy 🤣

    How often do you travel to countryside?

    I travel to the countryside maybe once a year during Christmas. The journey to the countryside from my place is about 8 hours by bus. The transport fare has doubled from what it used to be and the roads are so bad too. That's why I don't go there often.

    What healthy hobbies or distractions do you engage in beyond gambling?

    I like to play football on Saturdays with my sons. Even though the pitch is just sand, the exercise is good for the body. Another hobby that I engage in is reading. Not the heavy books but articles and stories online.

    Most memorable nature experience

    I remember the time I went to visit my uncle in the village. The place was so quiet, the air was so fresh, and you could hear the birds singing. I woke up early one morning and just sat outside watching the sunrise. The breeze was so cool. That moment was so memorable

    How often do you spend time with friends?

    I hang out with my close friends maybe once or twice a month. The thing is that we are all busy with work and family, and the cost of going out is not easy at all. But when we meet, we try to make it count.

    What is the best traditional food you enjoy?

    I like egusi soup with pounded yam. I want the the egusi to be very thick and the pounded yam to be very soft. But the thing is that the price of ingredients now make traditional food so expensive.

    How many times do you wake up before morning?

    Sometimes I wake up by 2am and I just keep looking at the ceiling until I am able to sleep again. But the worst is when you wake up and check the time and see that it's 4am and you know that you should wake up to go to work by 5am. That's crazy 🤣

    What's the best advice you've ever received?

    Another advice that stick with me is from my boss. He said "if you are doing something, do it well or don't do it at all." That pushes me to give my best even when I don't feel like it.

    What's the most interesting thing you've learned recently?

    I learned something else recently. I learnt that average people spends 30% of their salary on transport. I calculated mine and it was true!

    What's the most unusual food you've ever tried?

    The most unusual food I try was a snail. The first time I saw it, I think it was a joke. But when I taste it with pepper soup, it was so delicious. The texture was different from meat

    Favorite philosopher or thinker that inspires you

    I like Chinua Achebe. His books shows the Nigerian experience in a way that no other writer can do. He talked about our culture, our struggles, our resilience. Another person that inspire me is Fela Kuti.

    What's the best thing about getting older?

    When I was younger, I used to worry about everything. What people say about me, how I dress, whether people like me. Now at 42, I just live my life. If you don't like me, that's your problem.

    Have you ever learned a new language?

    I used Duolingo to learn Spanish. It only lasted for 2 weeks. The thing is that for the first week, I was motivated. I was learning new words and practicing. By second week, life happen. Work stress, I had no time, the notifications from Duolingo were just piled up. Eventually I delete the app.

    How many hours do you spend online every day?

    I am online almost all the time because my work require it . I wake up, I check WhatsApp, Facebook, and emails. During work, I am on the internet for research and for communication. After work, I would be scrolling through social media to relax. So I could say I spend at least 8 to 10 hours...

    What hobbies you wish you had more time and money for?

    I love photography. I see photographers on Instagram. They take very beautiful pictures and I just keep wondering how they do it. Cameras that take a very good picture are very costly. And the training is not cheap either.
