According to him, back in 2020, he didn’t even have up to ₦1 million in his account. He was struggling to survive while trying to build a name for himself in the entertainment industry.
The comedian explained that he was recording his early skits and music videos inside a very small room that people used to call “prison.” The space was so uncomfortable that he sometimes had to deal with the noise of hens and goats in the background while shooting videos.
In his words, “I didn’t even have ₦1M in my account back in 2020. I was shooting videos in a small room people called a ‘prison,’ with hens and goats making noise in the background. Time changes a lot of things. I am a product of God’s grace. God is too good to me, Aje.”
