And just as you know, it is a home studio. I actually demarcated the living room(because it has much space) into two parts and used one part for the studio<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b id=\"t1\">1.

How I Lost Everything<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>On the night of August 8, 2017, same day I came back from Abuja where I went to the Hungarian embassy for an interview on my visa application. It was a quite night just like every other night.<\/p>\n<p>There were 5 of us at home. Jadon and Shola slept in the second bedroom, Ishuka was in the living room while I was in my bedroom.<\/p>\n<p>What I could remember was a voice in my room (sounded like a dream) asking: &#8220;Where is the money?&#8221; Before I could raise my head from the bed, I felt the nose of the gun in my neck. So I clearly realized what is happening and simply followed instructions. Now I can&#8217;t continue with any details.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of about 20 mins when everywhere was calm, we all came out. That was when I realized that almost everything I labored for to build my studio are gone. Phones, tablet, cash, laptops etc<\/p>\n<p><ins style=\"display: block; text-align: center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7041870931346451\" data-ad-slot=\"4209786523\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<b><\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b id=\"t4\">4. Aftermath<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Went to the police and all that stuff, but no results. I simply have so auction and give away what was left of my vandalized studio\/lab.<\/p>\n<p>The worst part of it all was that I was so much demoralized and lost all motivation for learning and research and I could tell that even now I&#8217;ve not recovered from that night&#8217;s ordeal. And neither have I recovered from all the valuables that was stolen that nigh. I wish I could still have my home lab again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I still cry when I remember what I lost in the in Nigeria couple of months before I relocated to Budapest.
