I've always had a passion for technology and knowing how things worked.
When I was young I got electrocuted twice, doing thesame thing!! I guess the second time I thought I could somehow do it differently. Well I can now tell you that whatever it is I was handling put me in my place... Literally. 😃😃
One could say I am obsessed with not letting inanimate objects get the best of me, if i want to fix you then fix you i must. Along the years I've broken a couple of items and with luck fixed a few. What I'm trying to say here is I've always been fascinated by electronics,
I can remember the first time I used the Internet... It was while I was in secondary school. I had to take 3 buses to get to the cybercafe. I opened my first email account, toluy2kaina@yahoo.com.
It felt like the greatest achievement I must say. Then, the internet was dialup and it was quite slow, but I loved it.
I pick up new things easily and I learnt how to use the Internet pretty fast. I basically learned how to look things up and we all know that back then it was harder to get things done online than it is now, that was in year 2000. After I completed secondary school, I boasted to my friends about how I had used the internet and how I had an email address and they all seemed impressed. It really felt good to be the enlightened one. They (my friends) wanted to see how to use the internet, so we all took a cab to the nearest town and looked for a cyber cafe. I remember showing them how to use the browser and getting an email address, i remember it all.
Well fast forward to to some years later, these same guys turned out to be Internet fraudsters, they had fancy cars and they hadprotégés. In my head I was like "while I am in school trying to get a degree these fellows are using the knowledge I shared with them to do wrong. I bred a band of thieves and they enriched thier pockets while I'm still trying to get by,
Imagine! "
