Holy Mallam
It was the period I just started comedy. I think it was in 2001 or 2002. I was to anchor an event. My belt and my shoes weren’t the same colour. Back then, it wasn’t suit that I used to wear, I used to wear coat then. Before the event, somebody was taking me through the programme of events and two ladies just came and asked the person, “is this the MC you could get?’ They had a very disgusting look on their faces as if I was a nobody. I was so embarrassed. I wanted the ground to open so I could fall in.
Even before the event started, I had ‘died’. I was so embarrassed. I was just recovering from poverty then. Would you blame me? Is it not what you have that you will wear? Now, I am sure those two ladies would regret ‘yabbing’ me. They can’t match my dressing now. After all, I have met seven presidents since then. I thank God now.
