CEHNIGERIA: Give me your Full name. ODUNLAMI: I am Odunlami Seun Oriyomi by name. CEHNIGERIA: Can you tell me a little bit about yourself? ODUNLAMI: I was born in Abeokuta into a Christian family, and attended St. Peter’s Anglican Primary School Ake in Abeokuta. I proceeded to Ẹgba Comprehensive High School Asero, Abeokuta.
Due to financial constraints, I had to work before I could get my higher Education financed. I obtained an OND in Mass Communication from Wolex Polytechnic, and later graduated as a B.sc holder in Mass Communication from the National Open University. I am presently a Teacher, Blogger, Web designer, as well social media manager/influencer.
CEHNIGERIA: I am glad to hear that you are a Mass Communicator. What is your blog address?

CEHNIGERIA: How long have you been a Blogger? ODUNLAMI: 2014 CEHNIGERIA: Do you have role models in Blogging? ODUNLAMI: I don’t have. But I love Makinde Azeez of Naijaloaded.
CEHNIGERIA: What are some of the experiences that you have in Blogging that you would like to share with others? ODUNLAMI: They shouldn’t relent because it got to a stage, I felt like quitting. I stopped for a while.
Another thing is that newbie blogger shouldn’t blog because others are doing it.
CEHNIGERIA: Why did you admire Makinde Azeez, the CEO of Naijaloaded?
ODUNLAMI: He is humble and simple. I even wish to meet him physically.
CEHNIGERIA: What do you think the government should do to encourage bloggers in Nigeria?
ODUNLAMI: Bloggers should be fully incorporated into NUJ using their platforms – that would reduce hatchet jobs usually done by some bloggers who don’t care about the ethics of the job. Also, bloggers should be added to the correspondents of the President, Governors, Senators etc CEHNIGERIA: Where do you see yourself in the next five years in terms of your blogging career? ODUNLAMI: I see myself as an employer of labour as well as a mentor to passionate newbies in Blogging.
