The entrepreneur was on Wednesday reflecting on the pressure those who are of similar age group go through in pursuit of success in recent times.

According to him, such pressure to succeed among those less than the age of 30 is unnecessary.

Citing himself as an instance, the IrokoTV boss said when he was within a similar age range, he had neither a girlfriend nor assets.

The father of three also said all he had was a fairly used desktop computer and his IrokoTV project which he was working on.

Njoku added that in spite of his condition at the time, he was not perturbed or under intense pressure to succeed as obtainable among contemporary youths below the age of 30.

“The pressure for <30 years to succeed these days is so strange. So unnecessary. At 30 I was dead broke living at my Mum’s house,” he wrote on Twitter.
