Popular On air personality cum Actor and comedian, Steve Onu aka Yaw has revealed that he once trekked from one end of Lagos, Festac to another end, the Island.
While speaking on a television show, – Trending – this week, the Actor encouraged Nigerian youth by highlighting how poverty dealt with him in his younger days.
He said: “One thing I know I did that brought me this far was staying stubborn to my dreams. I was called all sorts of names, yet I never relented. There was a point one of my uncles suggested I go learn mechanic or carpentry works, but I refused.
”I’m not saying those kinds of works are bad, but I know what I wanted. Because of my refusal, my uncle called me all kinds of names and even told me that I won’t make it in life, but here I’m today, making everyone proud.
”I trekked from Festac to Island. From Surulere to Island. In fact, I was a trekker then, but I never gave up because I know what I wanted. If anyone wants to really make it and be successful in his or her endeavours, then believe in your dreams and stay stubborn to it’, he advised.
