Tell us about bae.

I actually met bae two years ago. I came for a conference in Abuja and was lodged at Transcorp Hilton and at night, during buffet, I met my lovely bae. Bae has been supportive of my business and everything surrounding my financial success.

Now you are in Abuja, are you going to see him?

No, I only came for the conference and I will be leaving pretty soon.

Do you have a girlfriend?

I was once in a relationship but it got to a point, I had to break it off but I am looking for someone. Very soon, I want to get one.

What kind of girl are you looking for?

I am looking for a very calm girl.

Bae, won't mind you getting a girlfriend?

That's personal. It's between bae and I.

Asides business and make-up, what do you like to do?

I like to dance a lot. In fact, I am a bad ass stepper and most of my Snapchat followers know that. When I dance, they say that guy can move because I know how to give the baddest move ever. My dancing and make-up has made me really popular.

Will you ever stop showing off on Snapchat?

I won't feel bad and I won't stop because I am not doing this to impress anyone. I am doing this for myself, to make myself happy.
