Early life

My father was (Equatorial) Guinean and my mother was from Cameroon. At that time, they lived in Douala, Cameroon. I am the oldest of four brothers. My father's family is in Equatorial Guinea. My mother's, in Cameroon. I moved in 2015 to Guinea, to Malabo, when I was 19 years old. I studied French Literature in Cameroon. My goal, then, was to become a lawyer. But when I lost my parents, that hope was gone.

I was going to study French Literature, I even did the entrance exam to the university, but everything changed because of the accident, because I had to find a way to earn a living, to eat and to bring food to my brothers. I did everything, with friends who were masons and carpenters I helped them and with the money they gave me we (my brothers and I) were going ahead at home. Yes (God is important in my life), I am a Christian and a very believer. Before my parents died they taught us to pray, to ask God, to have that faith and I in any situation of my life I know that he is by my side, I pray a lot and I thank him for everything.
