    He has written network news commentaries for Radio Nigeria before being head-hunted to work as Special Assistant to the DG, Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria.

    He also served the Honourable Minister of Information and Communications, late Prof Dora Akunyili, as Technical Assistant and Senior Speech Writer.
