According to him, he had a typical upbringing with his grandmother who allowed him to mingle with other kids his age. He says he could conclude that his childhood has impacted his life positively.
“I had the typical childhood that every other kid had. I played with my mates, did normal activities that the kids around me did. I grew up with my grandmother and she gave me the opportunity to mix with other kids around me. I did things like going into the bush where I hunted animals.
“I enjoyed every moment of my childhood as it was a lot of fun. Comparing me then to now, my childhood affected my life in a positive manner. I do some things now and I get inspiration from my childhood experiences and the life I had as a child. I don’t think I can do just anything without taking a cue from my childhood.”
Touching on his height, the actor said his height has not affected him in any way as he can boast of a very high IQ.

“I love sports and my favourite is football. I’m a huge football fan and a supporter of Arsenal FC and Enyimba FC. My dad played football and I can play football as well.
“I actually enjoy playing football, and when I’m not playing on the field, I’m playing it in video games. I have a football academy called Cityfut Escola.
“I also love basketball but unfortunately, my height won’t let me play; however, I watch it a lot. I used to support the Celtics but I’m currently a Cleveland fan because of LeBron James.”
