Oke Charles Ifeoluwa, a 400 level student of the Department of Pure and Applied Physics, LAUTECH recently won himself a prize of N1 million from Infinix Nigeria. The young man participated in the #EmpoweredByInfinixS4 contest alongside thousands of other Nigerians, and he was lucky to be one of the winners.

Charpman, as Ifeoluwa is called amidst friends, is a tech blogger who started blogging a little over two years ago. In his interview, he acknowledged the fact that tech blogging didn’t come easy as he has to compete with the “big guys”. Additionally, he did not receive a lot of encouragement from friends who did not believe in what he does.

When asked for the unique element which has helped him, Charpman said “The unique element is God, Jehovah, my consistency and real perseverance. I did not doubt myself and believed in the future.”
