I and my cousin had a long conversation on the phone and there's a story he shared that I would like to gist you about. Walk with me.
So apparently, my cousin is a model and also an actor – he has starred in a couple highschool movies.
He models for brands and he's just up and coming.
There's a certain chief in Calabar – well known and very wealthy.
This chief is literally the biggest sponsor of the agency he's working with.
As I heard, no superstar model went to stardom without going through him.
This chief invited my cousin to his hotel room. He told my bro to come alone – without his friends.
"Ahan! Come alone ke? This is smelling like rotten kpanla fish"
My cousin has heard rumours about this chief and what he does.
He heard the wealthy chief sleeps with young and promising male models and gives them huge sums of money.
He told his friends to stay close to the hotel room, so if they hear him shout, they will come to his rescue.
Alone in the wild, sorry, in the hotel room, with chief Diddy, it was a crazy experience.
He started making promises to my cousin, saying that he's going to help his career, connect him with big people and give him a LOT of money.
"I know this is your first time. But don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about."
"I don't understand what you are talking about sir. Please be specific." my cousin replied.
This chief brought out baby oil and a candle and told my cousin to go into the bathroom and insert into his poopoo channel.
My Goddd! Things dey happen for this world oh. Even in this country.
"Since it's your first time, this is going to make it easier and less painful for you. Once you're done, call me to come join you."
As my cousin kept sharing his story to me, I started picturing this traumatic experience.
My cousin quickly ran out of the room, but before doing that, there's something he said to the chief that struck me.
He said – "I believe that God uses men to bless people. And I know that if God wants to bless someone, he won't bring out candle and baby oil."
The happenings in this world is so scary and so many people are ignorant about what's going on or what went on behind the scenes of some people's "success story"
All my cousin wanted to be, is a successful model.
He never thought he'll have to sacrifice his bum bum to have an easy road to stardom.
