My name is Martins Okechukwu, I am a Nigerian male in his late 20s with a hunger to thrive by exploring the digital space. Though my State of origin is IMO state, I was born and bred in Bida local government in Niger State.
I had my University education in Cross River State, the University of Calabar, after which I went on to do my service year in Ekiti state.
In other words I have been privileged to experience life in about 4 different geopolitical zones of Nigeria, namely Middle belt, Southsouth, Southeast and Southwest.
PS: while in camp for the orientation exercise I joined the OBS team,it made my stay in camp very exciting.
While in school I joined a social club passionate about fixing the leadership problems in our country. The name of the club is Impact Leaders Club (ILC). I had an amazing journey with this club as it exposed me to so many experiences which has shaped my knowledge of Society and service in a positive way. We attended conferences, went for humanitarian services, learnt the rudiments of leadership. We also went on tour in the Atlantic City in Lagos when it was still in it's early stages.

I bagged a Bsc in geology, however after graduating I have made a conscious effort to learn digital skills which have proven to be the future of our workforce. I am a content writer, a crypto trader and a forex trader, above all I am an entrepreneur.
I currently work with a forex training Academy that partners with NYSC. Hence I go to camp during the Orientation exercise to train Corp Members on FOREX under the Saed program.
I have good knowledge of subsitent farming, because it is a family thing while growing up,
We grew crops like yam, cassava, corn, groundnuts and vegetables and also get to lay my hands on some natural medicines gotten from herbs.
My Dad was an electrician and I constantly went to work with him Everytime he got a job. That also gave some experience through which I learnt simple electrical installations like fixing a fan Chandelier etc.
I also make peanuts burger as a side hustle from time to time, both for sales and personal consumption.
