On a bigger picture, I want to b e a politician. I am from Anambra Central and I am very interested in politics, I am very interested in impacting my state and Nigeria in general. I moved to London at the end of my National Youth Service programme. You know like everyone does, just japa. trying to make some money and I just felt very unfulfilled.
