20 things you should know about me...

1) I am a workaholic. I derive pleasure working on projects or scripts than I do engaging in anything else.

2) I am fascinated by dusk. I love the night life (maybe because I never really had any as a growing woman); I started clubbing when I got married; I really didn’t when I was single, strange huh?

3) I listen to what you aren’t saying, I focus on gestures, batting eyes etc than on words.

4) I am scared of having too many friends (I haven’t had more than 2 friends at any given time), I am always apprehensive of people and their intentions. I hate the exposure friendship initiates.

5) I do not lick asses. It’s humiliating! And I feel shame for people who do.

6) I am almost losing faith in the new generation Nigeria. We all are treading the same path we once criticized… I am afraid we are all just going to be red-carpet fixated, celebrity-obsessed, ass-licking cowards with no real value. May be that’s why I like Up Rising, they sing a different tune, one that I can dance to.

7) I do not easily forgive. I forget easily (I actually think I have a memory problem. I can’t remember a lot of things from when I was a child up onto teenage years). But when the incident flashes through my mind, I hold on to the grudge….until my memory fades, again.

8) I am fearless; and I really don’t give a damn about stuff that bother a lot of people.

9) I THINK more than anything else.

10) I love intensely, I hate intensely

11) All of the jobs I’d got (now these are really good jobs; jobs I thought I’d get later on in life), none had ever asked for my CV.

12) I have proved every single person wrong – from my mother, to those who despised my humble beginning as a community publisher.

13) I totally despise cliques of any form, I think it jeopardizes growth, destroys individuality, kills unity, and fosters mediocrity; and it blinds its members to their own mistakes and faults.

14) I respect only a handful, I love only a few, I feel sorry for too many people.

15) I am on the highway right now in my life, anything is achievable, but I usually put on the brakes. I do not want to end up like many stories I’ve heard.

16) The only award ceremony I respect in Nigeria is LEAP Africa, not because I have one of those lovely plaques in my care, but I have also had the privilege to sit as a judge, and its transparency humbles me. Most of all, it is an equal opportunity platform for any type of youth, he doesn’t need to have a good suit!

17) My pen is caustic, and I am never afraid to unleash it on those deserving of it!

18) I am psychic to some extent, I can tell victory or doom a few hours or days before it occurs (not on a national level o! only on a personal one)

19) I love shopping; it’s therapeutic!

20) Before I got into the hub of my job, I was told I’d do things like everybody else. Well, I didn’t. I am still very upfront about many things; I do not encourage adult tantrums, and have walked out on many interviews because they just wouldn’t get their acts together. I am pleased…
