INYA J. ODE
INYA J. ODE Nothing would have ever suggested that after
being trained as a Veterinary Surgeon for 8 years (strikes inclusive) at the
prestigious Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, I would find myself on radio.
Nothing…..that is……..but PURE PASSION!!!! When I ventured on this journey
almost six years ago, I knew I was doing what I was born to do. For me, Radio
is my calling. Coming from a family of broadcasters (the fifth of six
children), I knew I was called long ago but I used Veterinary Medicine as a
“distraction” (and a really good one it turned out to be). But its good to be
home. Being married with three excellent children are added blessings I have
received in this journey of life and i don’t take it for granted at all. I
read, I laugh (you need to hear me laugh), I love activity, I multitask (with 3
active children and work….no joke), I sing and of course I talk….I LOVE my
job!!!
