My childhood was indeed rough, I mean very rough. I grew up in Kano State Nigeria where you were not sure of surviving the day talk more of the next day. I come from a family of absolutely nothing. I wasn’t born with any spoon at all, so you see what I mean when I say my growing up was indeed rough.

My dreams as a child were many among which is music which I have accomplished. I also wanted to be a footballer because I am really good at the sport. I also wanted to be a doctor, but its scary when I see people being operated.

Yes, I would say I am achieving music, and I still got plans to achieve my dreams of being a doctor. You know how it is Dr Churchill.
