My main responsibility involves scheduling emergency work to Engineers and working to provide SGN customers with a prompt and professional service. I have a background in media with cultural studies and journalism. My hobbies include watching football (now that i’m retired from playing, out of sympathy for my opponents), listening to music and I have a healthy appetite for politics and social commentary. My friends call me the voice of reason but i think it’s because they think i’m boring.
My hopes for Igala land is that we come together and find away to resolve the problems facing this generation. We have a lot of work to do but the journey of a thousand mile begins with one step. Let’s take it together and slowly but surely we’ll make it to the promise land.
