Ozen - So, I am going to ask you questions put forward by our readers and I hope you can humor me with your answers

Nezo - No problem.

Ozen - What do you have to say to those who see you as an overachiever? I know i do. Just hear me out.

Nezo - Perspective can be a funny thing. The way I see myself is different from how others see me and most times, it leaves me wondering whether or not I see myself through the right lenses. All in all, your sentiment and compliment is not lost on me. Thank you.

Ozen - I perceive you as one who's withdrawn from people, it is different from being introverted. How has your relationship been like with your parents/siblings? I really do not know what you studied, was is what you wanted and why? What do you genuinely wish for?

Nezo - A triple barreled question. So far, you can say I have lived a lonely life, but I am not complaining. Yeah! My relationships has suffered for it. After all, presence makes a relationship strong. As for what I studied, Marketing. What it what I wanted? I do not think so. I just wanted a course without calculations but the joke was on me right from the beginning. What I genuinely want? To be happy.

Ozen - What is cashout?

Nezo - The state of imaginary money disappearing right before your very eyes.

Ozen - Why are you gay?

Nezo - “Who says I’m gay”

Ozen - What is it like in your head? Do you miss us as much as I do?

Nezo - There is nothing in my head. Just breeze and echo. Of course. The central theme of this newsletter is missing people.

Ozen - What inspires your newsletter every week?

Nezo - The constant urge to be a menacing wannabe creative.

Ozen - Been reading your works and I want to say they're amazing and creative. But out of curiosity, what sets Nezo's mood right?

Nezo - Thank you. What sets my mood right? Igbo, shayo and a couple of Oba Solomoni’s videos. Just kidding. There is always something to write about. So, my mood is always right.

Ozen - Do you really like sex and all it entails as much as you talk and post about them?

Nezo - LOL! Stop taking my WhatsApp status serious. I post anything and everything I get my hands on.

Ozen - On a scale of 90-100, how much has SAPA dealt with you?

Nezo - Comrade, let us just thank the father of Jesus for life.

Ozen - What makes you happy?

Nezo - Seeing my friends and loved ones happy makes me happy. Money makes me happy too. Plenty money.

Ozen - What is your opinion on love?

Nezo - It is a temporary ailment only cured by marriage.

Ozen - Hello lover, You are wild and sweet. I look forward to your newsletter. You write without sentiment to humanity.

Nezo - This sounds like something Lana Del Rey would write. Thank you.

Ozen - What are the constituents of the famous garrious delicacy?

Nezo - Ah! Just Garri and water for me.

Nezo - I do not have any plans set in stone for the newsletter. For now, I am just going to keep writing and see where my pen eventually takes me.

Ozen - Do you always feel the need to hear people’s validation for your blog or are you non conforming about whatever your readers think or say after a read?

Nezo -  I think the word you are looking for is feedback. It is always nice to hear back from the people you write for and what they think of you have written. On the other hand, their opinions are not going to change how I write or what I have written. It is as simple as that.

Ozen - What is your favorite song?

Nezo - Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst by Kendrick Lamar. 12 minutes of perfection.

Ozen - If you were to write a book, what would be the title?
