“We used to watch your movie, give us money. We watched you all through our childhood.

“All these as actors we hear everyday. I offered all I had on me and one of them dragged me by the Agbada and demanded for an amount I can’t pay. I asked him to leave me, he said, ‘Do your worse.’ The rest is story.

“Do you pay anyone for doing your job? No. It’s our job too. Accept all we offer when we do. Remember, once a boxer is always a boxer.”
