“I Promised To Always Buy Shoes When I Become Successful Because I Was Having Only One Fake Designer Shoe At APoint In My Life” – Joeboy

Joeboy, the popular Nigerian musician, has spoken up about some of the obstacles he endured as a child before breaking into the spotlight.

In a recent interview with famous media personality Chude Jideonwo, he revealed how he was ashamed as a child because he owed school fees, which harmed his self-esteem.

Speaking about his hardships to reach where he is now, the top-charting musician described how he struggled under the blazing sun in Ogun State to sell a product merely to make ends meet.

It got to the point where he only had one shoe in his life, and it was a knockoff designer shoe, prompting him to pledge that whenever he gets successful, he will always purchase shoes.

Sometimes I felt like everything should simply end because it was difficult, “he says.

“I recall after secondary school, I was broke and seeking work. I recall seeking work for a month straight.

“I'd construct my curriculum vitae.” I once traveled from Ilaje to Sabo in quest of employment with a buddy. We sent in our resumes but were ultimately turned down for the positions.

Eventually, I landed a position as a product promoter for a firm in the sun. They transported us to a rigorous redemption camp in Ogun State. Every week, we were paid N5000. “

Life was difficult at the time, and I recall having only one pair of Nike sneakers, which was a knockoff. So, when I eventually blew, one vow I made to myself was that I would always purchase shoes.

“These days, when I'm feeling bad, I just go out and purchase shoes.” There was more to life than failing an exam or not being able to pay school fees.

“I remember a moment when this happened to me. I'll simply suggest that if a youngster owes school fees, don't call him or her out on it. Simply inform the youngster that he or she will not be attending school.
