Every time my dad came to pick me up because, uh, anyone who was messing with me, I was like, you see that on my dad's face tiger.

That was a tiger.

Do you want that man mad at you?

Exactly.

That's incredible.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But we then moved to Nigeria, and I got picked up at the airport by all of my uncles.

And literally, I was like, did everyone fight tigers?

Like, what is going on?

That tiger got around.

It just, like, went rampant on my family, this tiger.

You were born in... I was born in Oxford, England.

And I was there till the age of two, so I don't really remember it.

Then we moved to London, and I was there till the age of six.

And then we moved to Lagos, Nigeria, and I was there till 13, before we moved back to London.

I know.

I think that's why my dad really wanted to be there, just to be around it, which is why I ended up being born there.

And he decided he was going to go into the medical profession.

Until, as he tells it, he realized he had an apoplectic fear of blood.

And so, you know, I can't remember if it was a day that they were supposed to be dissecting a cadaver or something like that.
