Of course, I have shot videos for many. Allen, another up-and-coming movie stars in Nigeria. And I have also shot videos for some of our Izon musicians. The likes of King Allen Alabor, Samuel Nichola, Oyas among others.
Being someone who is into entertainment, what are the challenges?
As an up-and-coming star, there are many challenges confronting me. challenges in terms of finance. I mean money is the msjor challenge. It is quite unfortunate that most of our big men do not want to help us. This a major challenge. Another thing is the instrument to use. Most of the time I hire instruments to shoot most of the videos. But had it been I have my own instruments, it would have been more better. But unfortunately, where hail from is where the well-to-do do not think of helping the less privileged. So, these are the challenges I am facing right now, most especially the financial aspect. Honestly speaking, no money to buy equipment that will enable me to produce a professionally standard work.

Because I believe in myself, the only challenge is money; somebody to raise me; somebody to help me, this is the only challenge.

What I want people to do for me is financial help. 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.
