John has recently had the opportunity to interview the wife of the Turkish prime minister, wives of  Ambassadors as well as, ministers and other top government officials.   His program ratings increases on a daily bases and he has over 1 million viewers around the world.
  You may as well type "Theodore's TV Show" on YouTube to see his official videos if you are not in Europe or you can't get the satellite station with your decoder.
And how has John been able to adapt himself to the language and culture of his new environment?  "I have been praised for my ability to learn and speak the Turkish Language, very well, in just five months, even with my busy schedule," said John in a recent interview with Yxpress magazine
As a young man working to help break down barriers and gradually eradicate racial discrimination, he is the first foreigner to gain fame in broadcasting  in Cyprus, John is indeed on his way to success and  he is doing a great job of rebranding Nigeria
