Interview

Journalist with a The African Progressive Economist - A latest breaking news, daily news and hottest news covering all of Africa

Why did you become a journalist?

Over the years, I have come to realize that conveying the human experience is the most beautiful thing on earth hence journalism is my ultimate passion. Pursuing my passion for journalism has opened many doors for me. My passion within journalism is much more than just writing the articles, I take great interest in researching the target audience and profile. The passion and enthusiasm to go out into the world and find stories sometimes from nothing, and turn them into a publication is much more than just writing. My journalism sojourn all started by a simple quote which I read from a book a few years back which says "You know what you are going to be if you wake up and the first thing you think about is what YOU want to do and be. If you wake up and all you want to do is write, then you are a writer. Feel the passion and live for the better of life"

What's your favorite drink?

Coke

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Travelling, Taking Images on the streets or Having adventurous moments.
