Tell us about life before getting the job?
I was one of those people who God blessed so much, I got back to Lagos from Gombe after spending like 6 months over there in cold and dry weather. When I got to Lagos, NYSC posted me to a dry cleaning centre to serve my father’s land and because of distance from the place to my house, I refuse to work in that place. I met a Good Samaritan in NYSC office who posted me to Steam broadcasting and communications known as Coolfm. After my NYSC at Coolfm, I was then retained as a staff. That’s how it all began.
