My name is Samuel Thomas; you can also call me Samthom.

I was born into the family of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Abalaku, from the Akwanga Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, Nigeria. I started my early education at LGEA Primary School Akwanga South, Akwanga, Nasarawa State, after which I proceeded to secondary school at Government Science Andaha, Akwanga, Nasarawa State, and then proceeded to higher education at Nasarawa State University Keffi, where I obtained a BSc (Hon) in computer science. I later went to the Federal University of Agriculture Markudi, Benue State, for my postgraduate diploma in computer science.
Therefore, I was born into the family of 10, and I happened to be the second born out of ten (10) children. Unfortunately, our firstborn died, and then I became the first child, which meant I was shouldered with a lot of challenges and responsibilities of life. And I can proudly say that God is faithful, and I thank him for the talent I have, which I was able to showcase in diverse ways.
I am married to my dearest and beautiful wife,

Mrs. Linda Samuel, and God blessed us with three (3) beautiful

and amazing children.
I studied computer science, and I also enrolled in computer engineering, which I graduated from with a good grade. After I obtained the certificate, I was not able to grab any government work, but I created a job by myself, and that job helped many youth around me and also helped my family. I started a computer training school where I taught pupils practical computer skills in the following programs: Microsoft Office applications such as MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, MS Publisher, etc., and also graphics design apps such as CorelDraw, Photoshop, etc. And also teaches students trained students in engineering class, which I taught them how to repair the following:

Laptops, printers, photocopiers, CPUs, monitors, scanners, and other troubleshooting.
And I was able to train my younger ones to be able to face the reality of life, not putting their gaze on government work but rather creating something that can make ends meet for them.
And I am also a great farmer. I farmed different farm products such as cassava, yam, groundnut, maize, and many more. These are some of the things I did to feed my family and also support my parents and siblings. Though life is not really easy, I thank God for the wisdom to go through it and achieve greatness and help the people around me.
I also rear animals such as cows, goats, and dogs, and I have a small fish pond and many more.
Now, I am 43 years old, and I am always determined to help humanity and to add value wherever I find myself and in any given opportunity, and I am super excited to find this amazing platform through my very good friend @mrnatty and @ovey10 for putting me through, and I can proudly say I am forever grateful.
Thank you so much for this great privilege given to me, to be among the great people in the world of reality. I remain my humble self, Samthom.
