"There is a certain standard that women are placed on, much higher than men. Why is it that when it’s a woman it’s like so much more dramatic and quite frankly irritating?"

"Social media has been helpful because you can use social media to get information for stories and can use social media to gather data."

"The world is constantly changing and you have to find the best way to tell your story, sometimes you might find that text is perfectly fine but other times you might need to make it into a podcast or an audio version, it really depends on what the story needs"

"Podcasting is still a concept that people are getting used to, especially in Africa. Podcasting is difficult because people still think it’s radio and you need an internet connection to listen to an episode."

"You need to be open-minded, when you start you will start off doing work that you don’t really enjoy because you need to grab as many skills as possible."

"If you claim to be telling the stories of African women and you don’t document the bad experiences, then you won’t be honest in your coverage of women, because those bad and terrible experiences are the realities of many women."

"Generally, the media business not just in Nigeria, but in Africa is hard. The media has not yet hacked how to make money."
