Francis Agoda, also known as I Go Dye, a Nigerian comedian, has gone to social media to tell his personal hardships.
On Tuesday, the comedian uploaded an old photo of himself on Instagram. He also remembered living among prostitutes around 2000.
After performing at Night of a Thousand Laughs in Port Harcourt, Agoda said he couldn’t afford a hotel.
He also stated that he chose to remain in a S** workers’ neighborhood because he did not have enough money for hotel accommodations.
“I slept in a brothel 23 years ago in PH because I had no money for accommodation,” he wrote.
“On this day, I was not able to sleep in an hotel because I was paid 10k months before the event, I did not know my accommodation, transportation and feeding was part of the 10k.
“The only option available was to cross to a joint where runs girls were staying.”
He also encouraged people to stay hopeful during tough times and believe in their dreams
“My greatest surprise was that around 5 am person still come knock door come wipe, she say make I wait for outside for 30 minutes, Na the noise make me go water line that morning find motor when dey go Warri.
“This is just a simple story for anyone to understand that no matter the difficulty you are going through today, there’s a brighter day ahead, we must keep faith live and believe in the beauty of our dreams.”
