“When you go into my family, my maternal grandfather was a trumpeter. Okay. The local church.
So, a Sunday school people, you know, during Sundays, after Sunday school, just go to the main church and you see me sitting by the organ, we call them organist. Organist, yeah. Sitting by them, praising them.”
He continued, “The big one. Yeah, they will not allow you. So, I had the opportunity to go to a primary college and I found one, I joined the school choir. That’s where my music journey started. So, joining the school choir, I had some tutorials from our music teacher, the late Dominic.”
