Honestly speaking, no money to buy equipment that will enable me to produce a professionally standard work,” he lamented.

He added: “I need money. If someone can help me with money, then you will see the best in me. This is what I am known for and what I love doing. And this is what I have taken as my career till I leave this earth.
