I have been a member of this wonderful community for less than a month now and the feel has been extraordinary and overwhelming. I am still in the awe of how amazing and interesting about everything that is happening here right now and what will happen in the future. Yes, i am a footballer but just the mere thought of getting the chance to finally share my knowledge and opinion about the sport i love and play and even making money from it is unbelievable. I can never thank @jotmax enough for bringing Scorum to me.

Football is no doubt the most popular, most loved and the most played sport in Nigeria where i come from. You will certainly find at least a  football field (regardless of the size of the field and location) in almost every community in all of the 36 states of the country. As you can see from the pictures, the field where me and my team practice is situated in the center of a particular settlement and under a power line. During the weekends when matches are constantly been played, people will gather around the field to watch and root for their favorite teams come rain and come shine under the high tension electric cables. Reckless right? Maybe? But that's how much Nigerians love and follow football irrespective of the stage or the occasion. As rough and rugged as the field looks, it has other sporting facilities like the Gym, Basketball court, Table-tennis hall and a Boxing gym.

I got introduced to Scorum first by @jotmax and then he asked if he could introduce it to a reputable and literate football community. That's how my team came in. We are not conventional footballers, neither is our practice. Our practice is highly rigorous but interesting and educative at the same time, @jotmax witnessed our practice session first hand on the day i invited him over to come introduce Scorum to the team. Everyone in the team is either a graduate, a student, has a full-time or part-time job, running a business, learning a trade and some of us who have gone pro and playing for teams in the Nigeria premier league and beyond. For example, i graduated as a Biochemist, i am an entrepreneur (i have a jersey store and boutique that i run personally) and currently studying International Relations at Atlantic International University.

As soon as @jotmax introduced Scorum to me and team, I wasted no time in registering the moment I got home. I also didnt waste time putting up my Introductory post and then another. I noticed none of my team mates and our coach was talking about Scorum and I assumed they were not as interested as I was. This made me came up with the idea of designing a Scorum jersey for myself hoping it would probably triggger or ignite their interest once more. Upon entering the practice with my Scorum jersey, everyone present could not take their eyes of me. I was able to arouse their interest one more time and it was stronger this time as I helped a whole lot of them register after practice. 

I feel really happy and fulfilled because my little plan with the Scorum jersey paid off greatly. I will not stop here. The gospel has just started and its going to get louder and bigger. For everyone who has made this journey smooth, thank you so much. Long live Scorum!!!
