A few questions though, what are your favorite openings? Who is your favorite player? Do you have a fide rating? Answer these questions and I will believe you are not bragging.
1)when am using black i Do a Sicillian defense
but with White i have no best opening, i just do an early Castling, then try to control the center .
2)Internationally Gary Kasparov
Locally - Momoh Daniel (No 7 in AAUA 2016).
3)am a Local champion i.e No rating

any worthy Opponent
i stay in Igbe Ikorodu

Hmmm..... your opponent brain must overheat!.....would be nothing familiar in your play.... is hell for your opponent to figure out your next move and worse to figure out your intention.... so how can he prepare to defend or counter attack what he knows nothing about? Freestyle player!
@ topic..... think chess helps you to look at a problem from several angles.....come up with possible solutions.... consider the consequences of each before making a decision. In short...chess makes you look well before you leap!

I have seen badass chess players that are dull academically...!!

Academic performance (especially the Nigerian perspective) is different from intelligence.
Check those guys in analysing issues and give me feedback.

Thanks.
