My passion particularly lies in the area of women and children. I have a master in international law and human rights for St Thomas University School of Law Miami, Florida and i am presently a doctoral candidate of law at University of Pittsburgh School of Law, Pennsylvania. I was fortunate to represent my organization before the African Commission of Human and People's Rights, in Banjul, The Gambia. Bringing before the Commission the human rights deterioration in Nigeria and the travesty of justice experienced every day.

I am a fun person who exhumes positivity at all times, i love to laugh, meet people and share ideas. I see myself as an extrovert but could be shy sometimes. I relax by just listening to soft music, reading an easy novel and generally enjoy my domain whilst basking in the ambiance of my environment. I am a scrabble addict and can play scrabble back to back for 24 hours....lol. I used to play basketball till i hurt my knee. I love my music, it keeps me sane and i love my movies too, i like to keep up with recently released movies. I believe in God and i try to be a better person each day.
