Veteran Nigerian galala singer, John Odafe Asiemo professionally known as Daddy Showkey has opened up about an amusing experience he had in his career.
He recounted how a lady and three of her friends paid him his highest performance fee at the time.
Daddy Showkey revealed that he performed for only four of them in V.I, Lagos and they kept spraying him money.
The singer made this known on an Instagram live with his fans saying:
“Many years ago one lady, big woman that time, she paid me to come and play for her. On getting there me and my band now set up our instruments, this thing I am telling you happened 26 years ago on Victoria island.
“As we got there, the woman and three of her friends sat down and wanted me to just perform for them, just me saying ‘Ejor’ alone made them laugh and they would carry money and spray me.
“so when I noticed what was happening I asked why they hired me she said she used to watch me on the television when I perform in Ajegunle and then she wanted to me to bring my performance to Victoria island and that woman that time was the person who paid me the highest money at that time.”
Still on payments, Nollywood actor, Akah Nnani has informed his potential clients that he now accepts payments only in dollars.
Akah Nnani, like many other Nigerians is frustrated over the constant drop of the Naira against the Dollar.
The actor and media personality who is currently abroad, lamented the cost of things on the backdrop of the current economic situation with the Naira against the Dollar.
In a hilarious clip which did not fail to convey his timely message, Akah Nnani noted that everyday he sleeps and wakes up, the Naira falls further. He added that he has to think and calculate before he spends as little as $10 because of the exchange rate.
The father of one noted therefore, as a result of this, he will only be receiving payments for jobs in Dollars even as he added the prayer for dollar-paying jobs to locate him. See video here.
