In December 1999 when my dad passed, It was
difficult to take over his position as the first
son. It became even more difficult when my
mum decided to join him in no time.
Embracing the reponsibilities of taking care of
my four sisters and two baby brothers wasn't the
best message to preach to a waiting landlord
whose rent must be paid in due time. The
combination of being a big brother and father
came with a price that kept me in Delta State
University for 9 years as a student.
Apart from the non-negotiable Christian
upbringing from my parents, my dad always
drilled me, and made me tough. He taught me
how to be a strong independent youngman. How
to carry my siblings along as a leader of
purpose. Though it wasn't an easy journey for
me or any of my younger ones, as we all
struggled together. But hope was like the sun,
which casts the shadows of our burden behind
us.
I never stopped dreaming that one day our story
would change and take each and everyone of us
towards the direction of success. Apart from
thanking God for all He has done for me as
successful comedian, this is just my way of also
saying "I AM PROUD" of my baby brothers
@lanremakun of Lanre Makun Events and
@yomicasual (the Fashion Designer) for
embracing and indulging the paths that is
beginning to position them as individual brands
in their respective endeavours.
Above all, you guys must bear in mind that the
only way to continue the journey to success, is
to remain focused.
Humility is the true key to succeed in life.
Eradicate every form of arrogance and self-
indulging trap that will halt your blessings from
God. See you at the top.
My name is not Ben Bruce, but I just want to
share my thoughts. Lol
