His father is a Yoruba Muslim, while his mother hails from Warri and is a devout Christian.
He wrote:
“My papa Yoruba, my mama Warri. My papa Muslim, my mama Christian. I was born and raised in Port Harcourt. I studied at the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom. This is why I can never relate to tribalism or all the religious agendas."

"This constant reminder about not being tribalistic on the TL after what you said about Yoruba girls actually makes you one. Stop overrating yourself. You and your papa don’t matter. Ko ko oriburuku ati ofo e danu."
@Olariches82:
"My both parents are from Ondo State. I was born and raised in the South East, did my early education there. I left back to South West where I finished my secondary education. Wrote Jamb and got admission in South East where I met my Akwa Ibom wife. In-between I've spent 18years in Port Harcourt. I've lived with majorly all the tribes in Nigeria, this is why I can never relate to tribalism or any other agenda."
