I grew up in an extended family of close to 30 people, including friends, uncles, aunties, grandparents and stepmothers. Growing up in this kind of setting has helped me relate to everyone, irrespective of their race, tribe, religion, or sexual differences.

When I want something, I go for it because I know that if I give it my best, I will always get it.
