Due to my Nigerian heritage and my Sexuality,  my biological family evicted me making me homeless and threatened me with death.

This make me work hard and dig myself out of homelessness and poverty and claw my way upwards into this world and succeed.

For Over 9 years I’ve suffered health problems to which now police have found out was due to neural skin to skin poisoning by my Nigerian mother and this led to a near fatal accident in 2015

The poisoning left my bones and muscles weak though I was still benching over 130kg at the gym 4 days a week.

I landed myself in hospital with a left arm fracture and opted to have a titanium plate put in permanently.

Because I was unaware of the poison it badly reacted with anaesthetic used during surgery and I flatlined more than twice.

My Orthopedics Surgeon a devout Muslim thought it was some kind of freak show.

I got stiched up and moved to my ward at UCL hospital where my left broken arm now operated on in a sling and my RIGHT unbroken arm was now consequently paralysed.  After seeing consultants,  physiotherapists and occupational therapists and bring moved to a home.

I sobbed in bed praying to GOD and that night I felt pure FIRE rush down my right arm
