ABOUT ME
Ibiyeye Ponmile is my name. The first of six children in a Nuclear family of Yoruba ethnicity. I was born and brought up in Kwara state which is in the north central geopolitical zone of Nigeria. Although I hail from Ifelodun local government area of Kwara state which happens to be the largest of all 774 local government areas in Nigeria, I currently reside in the Ilorin south which is located in the capital city Ilorin. Despite being in the North Central part of Nigeria, Kwara state is predominantly a Yoruba speaking state which peacefully hosts a lot of other tribes, Igbo and Hausa, as well as the Fulani tribe amongst others.
EDUCATION BACKGROUND
Late 2001 was when I started my basic primary education and completed the programme in 2006, this was followed by my secondary school education in 2007 which was accomplished in 2013.After my not being able to secure admission into a Tertiary institution that same year, I resulted into learning resourceful basic I.C.T skills which includes Microsoft word, office suite, PowerPoint and Excel. Luckily for me in the next year being 2014, i got admitted into the University of Ilorin, Ilorin, Kwara state to study Zoology in the faculty of life sciences. I completed the program in 2018, after which I applied and got enlisted for the compulsory National youth service Corp (NYSC) program from October 2018 to October 2019 in Takum, Taraba state, Nigeria. During my service year, I taught Biology to senior secondary school students over the course of a year.
MY HOBBIES
Apart from the natural fuel for survival, football is what I like getting involved with the most, either playing or watching, excluding the argumentative part of who is better than who ( I try as much as I can to avoid the arguments in football because I believe that everyone is entitled to his or her opinion on whatever.)
Nature and wildlife is another thing I fell in love with over my four years studying Zoology in the university, I couldn't help it as grew to like observing, studying and taking photographs of them. My love for Nature and Wildlife lead to my love of Photography, I think the two go hand in hand.
I also spend some time on the internet to learn new things as well as to gain more knowledge, It was through the internet I happen to learn graphics design and it has been productive ever since.

HOW I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT HIVE
My good friends @peterale, @twicejoy literarily lectured me on Hive, on the level of exposure I was missing out, They did this some weeks ago but silly me, I procrastinated until I somehow totally forgot about it. luckily for me I bumped into one of them some days ago and my interest was re-awaken.
So here I am Hive, I'm already loving every of my moment here, during my short time here I've gone through great communities like @Leo Finance, @Hagro, photography, @Amazing nature, @Gems @Shadow hunters amongst others, I've also seen great posts by @felixxx @barski @samminator @jacuzzi and other great minds. I know Hive will improve me more than I expect, but I also have a lot to share with the family on Graphics design, Art of photography, Nature and wildlife as well as sports.
I am happy to be here, love you guys.
