White Money is most humble celebrity, says Umahi

David Umahi, Ebonyi governor, says White Money, winner of the 2021 BBNaija show, is the most humble celebrity.

According to NAN, the governor spoke of the reality TV star when White Money visited him at the government house in Abakaliki.

White Money won the N90 million grand prize for BBNaija’s 2021 season which included N30 million in cash.

Umahi said White Money’s values got him the right talent, earned him influence, and attracted good people to him.

“Your humility earned you this achievement. We are proud of you,’’ Umahi told the reality TV star.

Responding, White Money expressed satisfaction at the developments and transformation of Ebonyi under Umahi.

Earlier, White Money spoke of his early struggles and how an individual tried to lure him into drug smuggling.

“I auditioned for billboards. I got tired. I tried for BBNaija from the time of Efe until I got in,” the singer had said.

“Someone tried to make me smuggle drugs. I wooed ladies; they rejected me for being poor. I worked as a driver, sold shoes. I was born with a silver spoon. That got taken from me at a tender age,

“This left my brother and I on the streets to hustle. My brother wouldn’t allow me to do the hard jobs. He did bricklaying in Benin; we were paid with bread. What we were practically doing was begging. My father left us.”
