Take a peek at My Root


My name is Egbonwon Adesoji Olumide Johnson. Really, that was the name my parents gave me at birth but i have grown up and got used to being Egbonwon Adesoji Johnson (not much difference). My father's name is Egbonwon Nicodemus Orioye and my mother's name is Egbonwon Elizabeth Abiodun. I am the 2nd male child in a family of 3 male (Eda, myself and Tola) and 1 female (Cecelia).

Though not from a wealthy family, i had fond memories and partook in most of the fun and mischief that easily beset young boys.

Early in life, i have been made to believe i am special and most preferred in my extended family. It wasn't until i was about 22 years old that my younger brother voiced his observation. He said, "I've noticed that mother always gives you special attention and tends to be bias in dealing with you. It's just not fair". I humbly and truthfully told him then that i have observed the same thing and disliked it too.

But one thing i know about myself then and which i think must have endeared so much affection to me is that i was an easy going person. Easy going, calm, friendly, trustworthy and hardworking are the attributes i had and still do till now. In addition, i am very compassionate but could be firm in order to discourage unbecoming behaviour when relating with people.

From year 2000, i plunged into the ocean of software development and been swimming around since then, helping to develop different software solutions.

I will tell you more about me later in this blog.

Thanks for reading
