  • I woke up sad over state of Nigeria – Williams Uchemba

    I woke up sad over state of Nigeria – Williams Uchemba

    Popular comic actor, Williams Uchemba who is taking a vacation in South Africa has taken to his verified Instagram account to say that he is sad and depressed due to the present poor state of Nigeria.

    “I woke up really sad and depressed over the state of Nigeria and I’m almost tearing up typing this. Now, I’ve lived in the western world in the past, both in the UK and US, and when I ask this question I justify my depression with ‘well it’s a white man’s country that’s why they are ahead’ but why I’m really angry in this case is that we are talking about the same continent”, he wrote.

    Associating Nigeria to South Africa, the social media comedian inquired why a Nigerian would need a visa to travel to South Africa notwithstanding the fact that Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa.

    “Do you know that Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa with a GDP of $398 billion compared to SA which is the second-largest at $368 billion? Yet Nigeria needs to apply for a visa to travel to South Africa. I am 3,500 feet above sea level and I’m looking at an African nation that built their country with their own natural resources, a country where you can’t tell if you are still in Africa or Europe because of its immense development despite the corruption in the country.

    “A country where their primary source of income comes from mining and industry. Tourism alone rakes in ZAR 130billion which is about $8.8billion for the country. In 2016 alone 16 million tourists visited SA and that number has steadily increased since then. 16 million guys and tourism only adds 2.8% to their GDP. Even with the corruption in their country the leaders are still steadily growing their industries and sectors,” he wrote.

    Uchemba further pondered what the root cause problem of Nigeria could be. “You might not understand how Nigerians are suffering until you travel to other advanced countries then come back home and see how Nigerians have been deprived of basic life amenities of life.

    “So I ask, apart from bad leadership structure and lack of vision, what do you think is our problem as a nation? Do you think we got independence way too early? Do you think that the democratic system of government is working in Nigeria and for Nigerians? There is corruption in other countries, why is Nigeria’s corruption so different and profound that even corrupt nations call us corrupt?? What do you think is the issue with Nigeria?” Uchemba said

The video was about 15 mins long but 30 seconds into the video I heard a voice saying “This is my husband!” she said.

    “I had no idea who this guy was, never even heard of his name before but I felt the urge to message him on FB messenger just to encourage him to do more and never give up on his passion.”

    I immediately clicked on his name, noticed it was a “fan page” but didn’t think too much of it because I thought that maybe he was a motivational speaker of some sorts. So I messaged him but I was not expecting a reply.”

    She also revealed how the friendship grew .

    “We video called each other a lot, we got to know each other more and more which was fun and easy because we felt like we’ve known each other for 10 years or more.

I just let the friendship grow naturally and patiently waited for God to reveal that to him Himself,” she added.

    According to him:” There’s actually nothing you do that people won’t talk about. It would shock you to know that the people I help off camera, are more than 90% of what you see me do on camera. It is my lifestyle. I wake up every morning, say a prayer, asking God to let my path cross with people who really need money. I hold up to N100 – 200,000 in my pocket not that I’m going to buy anything but because I know I would meet people who would need it. I have learnt not to think of what people would say. As long as my mind and My God is pleased with it, I’m okay. Besides, if people don’t don’t talk about you, then you are not doing something right. How to know if you are doing something right is when you get criticism”.

    Most times female fans cannot control themselves- Williams Uchemba

    Rising comic actor, Williams Uchemba has opened up on how he deals with his female fans.

    The ‘Merry Men’ actor in a recent interview said he is used to getting female attention.

    Hear him: “I love my female fans. I’m used to it because I have been in the limelight for over 22 years, since I was a child. So, female attention doesn’t come as a shock to me. All I have to do is dress well, smell nice, wear a smile and be kind to people. Though. some people can be insensitive. Sometimes, they see you in a very serious situation and they just come in and interrupt you. But you have to be calm because most times, they (female fans) can’t control themselves. I try as much as I can to keep my distance. I’m a very strict person. I am disciplined. I keep boundaries always but then they are my people and I love them”, he told The Sun.

     

    Uchemba who was alleged to have been involved in a fraud recounted how was able to handle the embarrassing situation.

    “I was accused and they tagged me a fraudster. They said I defrauded some people in the United States and United Nations. When the guy that started the whole thing saw that it was false and apologized, why didn’t the media carry it? Somebody even said to me, ‘Williams, in three years, you won’t have any movie job or endorsement deal’. But the following week, I got a deal as a real estate brand ambassador. It happened in December, I got the deal in January. So far, that year was the best of my entire career,” he said.
