Homeless with a functional business website for sale of airey cigar brand. Homeless and you were interviewed by British tabloid before BBN.

You may not be rich but this story of homeless isn't for someone like you. Nonetheless, Mike is extraordinarily disciplined.

that's not what he meant by homeless....he didn't have a country (Home ) to represent as an athlete.
I guess even the country he reside didn't have much believe in him,and Nigeria too didn't give him a chance

Hmm Haven't you heard the rich also cry. Ask again why he was homeless, and understand what it means to struggle to get a role " athlete and being homeless"

A reason you should stop being distressed according to your moniker cheesy cos not everything that glitters is gold. Good-looking people are mostly the poorest, research has shown.
You may be feeling depressed because some people are having what you dont. I urge you move on and believe in yourself. Tmoro go beta

Is it just me or are most people on this forum becoming kinda dumber on purpose,you have succeeded in turning Nairaland - a once EMERGING NIGERIAN'S QUORA HUB into a dump site with dumb super low IQ bitter nitwits,from the writers to the contributors.



HOMELESS NEVER LITERALLY MEANT HE DOESN'T HAVE A HOME !,whats happening to most of your constructive reasoning,even if you don't understand his phrase must you add undiluted bitterness while reacting,these people are humans too.

To the very few still making the Forum reasonable thumbs up!
I was looking forward to a comment that will actually express the true meaning of what he wrote up there. These Nairalanders are the dumbest on social media. grin

Husband of British celebrity athlete Perri Shakes Drayton. cheesy
CEO of successful cigars company.
I guess what he means by homeless is lodging from one hotel room to the next

His wife is super talented at 400m and 400m hurdles. If their children get into athletics I hope the choose to represent Nigeria with the amazing genes they would inherit.
