Here we go folks!
Q. FOOTBALL HISTORY?
I started playing football at a young age, with my brothers, neighbour and those older than me. I played a lot of matches when I was in junior secondary school then I joined a club named super strikas where I stay at Calabar when I was in ss1 since then have been played competitively and in a lot of competitions
Q. DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL RITUALS BEFORE OR WHEN COMING ON IN A GAME?
Not exactly, though but back then I used to. I am a striker so I have the privilege to be at the center of the field before the game starts so I just squat and touch the grasses cutting some and letting them slip out of my hands gently while saying a prayer or two . It worked though I’m sure you want to know that.
Q. YOUR FOOTBALL HEROES?
I don’t have specific players so was relieving when the question presented itself as “YOUR FOOTBALL HEROS” –hmmm I admire a lot of players though but my favorites are Ronaldo(brazil), Ronaldinho, Iniesta, Lionel Messi and Pele (c’mon I just watched his clips wasn’t around then).
Q. YOUR PREFERRED FOOT?
My right foot
Q. FAVOURITE STRIKE PARTNER?
Hmm…I’ve always been privileged to be a lone striker everywhere I played so I didn’t have striker partners but if I had to choose that will be Teecee (Tochukwu Okafor) we play together for Spartans FC
Q. FAVOURITE COACH?
I have good coaches but my favorite is Dare, he is also a good friend
Q. FAVOURITE TEAM MATE?
Quite a number of them both in Spartans FC and also for my college. From Samuel Iko‐Ojo, Momoh, Teecee, Abraham, Abdul, Teebeats ,Goteh, Ola e.t.c
Q. BEST GOAL YOU EVER SCORED?
I’ve scored a lot of great goals though but I don’t really keep them in mind and I look forward to the next goal hoping it will be better.
Q. MOST DISAPPIONTING GAME YOU EVER PLAYED AND WHY?
Classic vs Spartans (2014) ended in a penalty shootout we lost but I felt hard done by because the officiating wasn’t the best. And the recently concluded NPUGA Games – We lost in quarter finals I missed a penalty. It was bad.
Q. TOUGHEST DEFENDER THAT EVER MARKED YOU?
Hmm I have so few…true story, its difficult for a defender to mark me because mostly I am given the freedom to roam and its difficult for them to mark me for reasons best known to them…but if I have to pick one here in school I think Einete(joseph)
Q. TOUGHEST GOALKEEPER?
There are quite a few it’s difficult for a goalie to be though against me LOL seriously but if I had to pick one in school hmm Abdul Fattah but I always score him though, Some amazing goals (I’m sorry bro) .
Q. COMPUTER FOOTBALL GAMES? FIFA/PES?
FIFA
Q. YOUR OTHER FAVOURITE SPORT ASIDE FOOTBALL?

Q. NON – FOOTBALL SPORT HERO?
I’m really sorry I have less heroes in my head, it’s difficult for me, not sure why. But if anyone deserves my hero label, they are my friends, my close friends they are amazing
Q. HOBBIES ASIDE FOOTBALL ENTIRELY?

Q. YOUR WORKOUT ROUTINE?
