Profile
My name is Koko Michael and was born on the 27th of September 1983, 4th overall in a family of eight, five boys and three girls but 2nd boy. I was born into a catholic family and my parents are now night and lady of St. Mulumba respectively. As a boy I was very playful and skipped classes a lot therefore failed my first exam as a student but I wasn’t bothered because my mind was always on football. I loved football very much as a kid at the expense of my studies, not that I was a dull boy growing up. My dad is an educationist so moved about a lot so where ever we went all of us kids had to start a class behind the current we were in before moving to a new place therefore we never had steady or lasting friends. I loved making friends as a kid and that also got me into a lot of trouble with my parents because that meant I moved a lot around visiting those friends and that also attracted heavy beatings from my parents especially my Dad who has this wonderful or should I say dirty slap that always brought anyone of back to their normal senses whenever they did something wrong though I was the only person with the highest frequency of beatings because I would always want to go out and play with my friends at all costs, I did feel those beatings and wanted to stop but couldn’t because once the feelings to go play came on, there was no going back even though I was well aware of the punishment that awaited me when I will eventually return home.
We finally moved back to our home town in `1994 and I saw through my primary education and began my secondary education thereafter and completed it in 2004 and went on and got a bachelor’s degree in statistics/computer science in December 2010 at a federal university here in Nigeria.
As an adult, nothing gives me much joy and fulfillment as playing with kids does. I still love my football very much but not as it used to be any more because time has become a very scarce resource for me so I only watch it on television now. I love travelling a lot as a hobby and also making friends. I am also heavily addicted to the internet and the computer and also electronics. Music plays a major role in my life too as it fine tones me and has greatly reformed me into a better person that I can now proudly say I am. I used to be a very volatile person, quick to anger and always wanted to do to people what they did to me and I also hated Christian music but it has now become one of my favorite kinds. I love Christian rock music a lot its being played on my computer as I type my profile. I plan to have a second degree in psychology if everything should work out well for me.
Am a very emotional person and thus don’t enjoy have to make people around me feel bad because you will see a smile on my face whenever you see or are around me and I don’t know if it is right that people should not take me seriously because I do laugh a lot.
