Mary Stopes: Can you tell me a bit of yourself?
Tatafonaija: Thanks Mary, my name is Belema, I am from Rivers State, I studied Mechanical Engineering at the prestigious University of Port-Harcourt, but now am a blogger and prefer to be called Tatafonaija, thanks
Mary Stopes: Why Tatafonaija?
Tatafonaija: Because that is my brand now, that is how I want to be known and seen, sounds funny but that's me.
Mary Stopes: I know Helen Paul is called Tatafo, how did you come about the name Tatafonaija?
Tatafonaija: Thanks Mary, so many people ask me the same question, sincerely when thinking of a name for my blog, the name came as a result of what I intend to do with the blog, which is talking, and you know some one that talks a lot is called Tatafo, so I said I am going to be talking so much about Nigeria, hence the name Tatafonaija
Mary Stopes: Have you ever met Helen Paul?
Tatafonaija: No, but I hope to someday
Mary Stopes: Who inspired you to start blogging?
Tatafonaija: Linda Ikeji
Mary Stopes: How?
Tatafonaija: I came across her blog, loved it, heard she is making money, said I want to make money too, if you look at my blog it is modeled after her's.
Mary Stopes: Are you making money from your blog now?
Tatafonaija: Yes, but not as much as Linda, i hope to some day soon.
Mary Stopes: How much do you make monthly?
Tatafonaija: Mary, you know lots of people will read this, i cant say how much, but for now i make enough to pay my bills.
Mary Stopes: Lets get into your personal life, are you married?
Tatafonaija: Am not married Mary, but some time soon.
Mary Stopes: Any one in mind?
Tatafonaija: Yes o, Linda Ikeji, I really admire her a lot and I know I am the right man for her, I want to be there for her and show her love like she has never know, true and real love,mark my word Mary, I will marry Linda Ikeji.
Mary Stopes: That's some confidence, how old are you?
Tatafonaija: Old enough
Mary Stopes: Any word for aspiring bloggers
Tatafonaija: Blogging is hard work, nothing good comes easy, when people are asleep you are awake, reading and researching for good stuff online, it takes at least 3 months of consistent blogging to know if you are called to be a blogger, and one more thing, you will always need that extra to make your ordinary efforts, extra ordinary, for me that extra is God, i advice the same for others.
Mercy Stopes: Thanks Mr Belema, sorry Tatafonaija, hope you will stop by again?
Tatafonaija: Thanks for the opportunity, i will stop by if you invite me.
