“If one is not disciplined, honest or have integrity, he can’t be a good soldier. Also, he can’t be a good accountant, and as well can’t be a good golfer”, Onwuama said.

“If I played a round of golf with an individual, by the time we complete the 18 holes, I can tell you what that man is all about-his nature.
