Finally, Olumide is a bit of a sportsperson himself, regularly playing soccer or surfing over short distances. He knows full well the benefit of combining fun with work. Early mornings are his best time in the day. Seek him out, and you will be sure to find him at his home or workplace, surrounded by towering books from the greats. His best authors since 2012 still remain Joseph Sugarman and Tracy Kidder.

Olumide holds a bachelor’s degree in Arts from the Canadian Mennonite University. A writer by day and a reader by night, he loathes to discuss himself in the third person but can be persuaded to do so from time to time.
