Bio
Born in the Western part of Nigeria, I grew up loving English language as basis for all my communication, I later on grew as a local interpreter which can easily interpret in a public gathering places from English to Yoruba and vice versa. Having realised my potential in this area, hence my decision to develop a writing and translation skill through reading books and literatures which has earn me a place whenever the translation of English to Yoruba is mentioned. Little did I know this would take me far than I ever imagined in the field of translation.
