Nominated for the Best Photogenic Model of the Year, at the Nigerian Models Achievers Award, he tells DAMILOLA ADEKOYA what fashion is to him.

Definition of fashion

It is what is catchy and classy with a little bit of style in it. It is what everybody accepts.

Style of dressing

I like to be a little bit edgy but simple, not too loud or flashy.

Family background

I'm from a polygamous home. We are eight in the family and I'm the sixth from my mum.

Uniqueness of style

I think it's my smile. I believe I'm never fully dressed without a smile. No matter how good I'm dressed, so far, as I'm putting on a smile, then I'm good to go.

Stylish Icon (s)

Internationally, I love David Beckham and locally, I feel myself when I'm dressed.

Role model

No one but Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, because some years back, when I lost my dad, I had problem with self-esteem and when I heard his preaching, I really got saved.

Describe yourself in three words

Hardworking, friendly and selfless.

Favourite colour(s)

Blue! It's very easy to combine and it reminds me of peace.

Most cherished possession

It's my mind because I put a lot into it. It is the greatest asset anybody can have.
