My introduction post.
My name is Mr Daniel Ajike. Am a native of ohafia in Abia State of Nigerian.
Am the 6th in a family of 8 and last of the 4boys.
Growing up, I was Dad's favourite and always with him to most places he went to including farm when we used to have some.
EDUCATION.
My primary school years was quite fun as most of my classmates where from the same community we lived, as such we where already friends before becoming school mates and and classmates,
However, my secondary school years was a totally different story altogether.
The first part of it which was my junior secondary years was in a technical school in Aba
Because it was a mixed school : "Boys and Girls" in the midst of other schools that were just boys, the intimidation was much from the point we board bus to school and during inter-house sport competitions.
Most of those supposed friendly games always ended up in flight and because we are mixed with girls, the commotion was too much.
After so many riots that took some lives and even left one classmate with one hand till date, I decided to leave the school and the town.
Then comes my senior secondary years which I went to another technical college but this time, in my home town Ohafia in Abia State.
Life was quite peaceful there and most of the students though aren't that exposed to city life but has its own unique challenges like unable to freely express oneself in English fluently. But was quite better and conducive environment for learning than where I was coming from. And happily I completed my 3year course in Electrical engineering department of which I was the departmental head.
Sadly, my parents could not afford to further my education to the university level so I had to start a life of my own as man had to survive
HOW I GOT TO ABOUT HIVE
For many years, I have had friends who are into it and other online blogs but never really took a keen interest in it until now.
Meeting who happened to be a member and seeing how she enjoys it and spoke about it, I was moved to join.
Especially hearing about the security and transparency of the activities here was part of what attracted me in the first place though she and other friends habe long been telling me about Hive but because personally am very much sceptical about anything online as cyber security has been a growing concern in our time i finally joined now.
LIKES AND DISLIKES.
From childhood, I have always loved to experiment with different things and curious about learning new Skills and ideas. I like making good friends and spending some quality time together with them I like honesty because those where the foundations we got from home growing up, so naturally I expect people that comes across my way to be as honest with me as I am with them.
I like travelling and all the means of travel with the expection of sea travel.
The ones I enjoy most is traveling by air or by land if am the one driving as that keeps me more relaxed because am in control of the wheels.
I dislike and detest noisy environments which of course makes me more of an indoor person and I dislike some violent competitions. I dislike being in a long traffic but unfortunately that is part of life in the city of Lagos Nigeria where I live.
WHY I JOINED.
As mentioned earlier, the security and transparency of Hive is an attraction and the possibility of interaction with different people from different backgrounds, learning new ideas and sharing experiences. So I hope to meet more people whom I have perceived to be friendly and kind in nature.

WORK EXPERIENCE.
After my collage years I practiced for a while in the field of electrical engineering, but took a back when a close friend was electricuted while working on the transmission line.
Then i moved to the city of Lagos and was sent on a training by a company who are into different branches of security services. There I was trained on car tracking installation which I worked as the head of installers for some 5years which I looked back to with great pleasure for the experience gained and exposures enjoyed as the work took me round the country and even outside the country at some point.
It was exciting to be part of the solution to car theft as that was a growing concern at some point in the country and that brought joy and satisfaction to most of our clients who's stolen cars where recovered with the help of our services.
Then i joined an oil spill management company for a few months where i work as a field worker and that took me to some oil states in the country UAE inclusive
Then I left to start a business of my own which is Logistics services.
While still doing the car tracking business as part time work on my own,
The logistics services was also a thriving business as many travellers often make a stop in or visit Lagos Nigeria so I provide transportation services for them and help in securing hotels and taking them to where they can enjoy good African food.
The honesty I got from home growing up which I insist on with everyone working for me, brought many clients and referrals of which am very grateful.
At some point, I registered with Uber services and Bolt E-hailing services.
MY EXPERIENCE ON MICRO BLOGGING.
It has been a rewarding experience so far because am finally here. Signing up wasn't an easy process, I had a lot to learn at the same time then too the effect of fluctuating network. I got stucked at a point when I thought I had made it through the signing up process, not knowing where to have gotten my sign up keys I missed that part and because i didn't know how to retrieve that account and not being able to log in to @leofinace.io frontend , I had to open another one which am using now.
So far i have been making many threads a d determined to make more and engage more on other peoples threads
All thanks to who had patiently taken me through the process and still willing to guide me further and here I am with you people.
I still have a lot to learn and explore and am looking forward to receiving any help available and am happy that people here are kind and friendly too.
