Below he shares his typical working day;
I always wake-up between 5 and 5:30a.m. I bathe before having breakfast. I then sit down to prepare the day’s schedule by putting down my agenda.
By 8a.m, I am at work; check on the internet as I prepare for my Show. At exactly 9:30, I am on Air where with my listeners we discuss various issues with focus on day to day human activities and challenges.
I also entertain my listeners by playing them local, regional and international music.
The programme ends at mid day. I continue doing research on various issues until 1p.m when I go for lunch.
I spend an hour resting and later up to 4p.m, I engage in private businesses.
At 4p.m, I go out for a two hour physical fitness exercise. By 6p.m, I am back to the work place to prepare for the next day.
However, at 8p.m I am home, to enjoy the evening with my family. I also take some time to talk to both my wife and children. I have supper at 9 but I get to bed at 10 after doing some work on the computer.
