8 Things To Know As A Celebrity In Nigeria by Kunle Afolayan

1. “You must be a mobile atm at all times. Very applicable to the following (Police, customs and immigration officers) at check points, airports and borders as well as area boys”
After all, those are the people watching and buying your films or songs or whatever you are doing that makes you a celebrity.

2. “You must never have personal problems only solve people’s problems. Including buying breakfast for strange figures ‘ boys must chop’”
This is a must, even if you are not a celebrity, you will sure face this situation in Nigeria. Being a celebrity is a foundation for the boy’s right

3. “You must never have moods. It’s forbidden you are not human remember? *SUSPICIOUS**Brrrr*”
Lol… really funny, that’s just the fact……You don’t have moods…anything can come in anytime.

4. “You must never have an opinion. its not permitted. Else you incur the people’s wrath”
Because you are a celebrity, any opinion you make about anything will hit the headline the next day. And people will be angry because they will think your opinion is accepted because you are a celebrity.

5. “You must be ready to receive insults on social media platforms especially from annoying anonymous persons. And also be ready to be impersonated on Facebook with as many pages. Miscreants ripping innocent people off in your name.”
No comment about that one.

6. “You must never have a life”
Even if you do have one, you have to protect it. Bloggers are always watching.

7. “You must be ready to overlook and endure everything even if it’s to your detriment. After all you are a’ Celeb”
That’s a very fact, you must be ready to ignore some things.

8. “Be ready to pay your fans for seeing your movies or listening to your music. You are everyone’s fan! Ever been told ‘you are my biggest fans oo I dey watch your film oo make you settle. hmmnn if I’m your fan I wonder what you are to me?”
