音乐、电影和书籍

I am a fan of rap, electric music, Rock, Jazz, RnB, Afropop, and any kind of sound that is mid-tempo and allows for some tranquility. Some of my favorite artists are Rihanna, Asa, Brymo, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Eminem, Odunsi, to mention a few.

Because I write nonfiction, I read more about fiction (novels). That way, I am able to consider the similarities between fictional happenings and real-life experiences. I also read nonfiction and poetry. Some of my favorites are Chimamanda Adichie, Bernadine Evaristo, Teju Cole, Logan February, Romeo Oriogun, Haruki Murakami, Kazuo Ishiguro, James Baldwin, among others.

My taste in movies is quite eclectic. However, some of my all-time faves are Three Idiots, The Fault In Our Stars, Like Stars On Earth, e.t.c

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

In 2017, I designed a new media monitoring template for an international organization whose African head office is in Lagos. To date, the company still uses the template.

Also, as a writer, I have written amazing essays about people, places, and experiences that have shaped the person that I am, and the people around me.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Because of my training as a storyteller, I have a listening ear. As such, the host is guaranteed a person who is interested in listening to their tales of woe, their pains, their joy, and pretty much any mundane happenings in their lives.

I read quite a lot. This makes me somewhat informed on many issues around the world. The host would be guaranteed a sparring partner for engaging and stimulating conversations.

I am generally a person who understands peoples's moods. As such, the host doesn't need to worry about someone talking when they'd rather
