But when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out last year, all social gatherings that I used to cover to make earns meet as an MC was ban and all other functions that I earn my living through was restricted. I began to have difficulties in making earns meet. I took to this so that my mind won’t be occupied with social vices. Sometimes, people come around just to mock me, but a lot of people come just to encourage me. I’m not ashamed and deterred so long the business is legit and pays my bills”. He said.
