    Thank you Teju for bringing Mr.Femi Ogedengbe to your Podcast.
    He made me remember growing up in Ijesha Tedo Surulere. In mid to late 80s did scavenging business to Oke Afa dumping site on Egbe road to pick plastics carry it, trek to Hassan/Ilasa bus stop. Cross over to the Tire area continue walking to sell the plastics at Itelorun street in Ijesha.
    Today I am trained and registered Engineer.
    Thank you Femi Ogedengbe. ❤❤❤

    All Femi said is the truth. We all grow up together and I remember that day those boys were killed. Femi is a friend and we both went to Eleja together. There are things Femi did in Primary school that he has 😅forgotten. When we see I will remained him. Our area was full of boys and I survived,i was never in any peers pressures. Femi! Take care bro.

    Everything Femi said about his childhood was true. We both grew up at pako - eleja area mushin road, Infact we played football together somethings at Alvis Street. About those guys that's killed was true. It was tough even for some of us who're pastors son then, Thank God for His mercies.

    Femi Ogedengbe, I identify with your story. God bless you and your family. I respect and admire your resilience particularly the respect and appreciation you have for Nkechi your wife. You honesty, sincerity, and courage I admire. I am an Igbo woman and that a Yoruba man will appreciate and publicly believe in a common Igbo girl….God open more doors for you. I cried almost all through the interview because your life experience resonates with me.

    • @patriciachiedu8267
      @patriciachiedu8267 Před dnem

      Correction, Igbo girls are not common. Most Igbo women are great. Very responsible, very hard working, and very supportive to their husband.
      He knew his wife Nkechi was not a common Igbo girl when he got married to her. My niece is married to a Yoruba husband. Her mother in law appreciated her for her hard work and how she has helped her son to be more responsible and happy. No Igbo girls are common. I am an Igbo woman, and I am a great woman❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    • @oraltraditions6127
      @oraltraditions6127 Před 6 dny

      I had heard about the story of a Nigerian actor who camr to America and did security work. My first thought was,"What's wrong with being a security guard? He had to start somewhere." Because I did not know him, I didnt follow the story.
      I am a Nollywood movie fan for 22 yrs, but I am mostly acquainted with the actors/actresses names, not directors except if the actor/actress I am used to is producing/directing his or her own movie. Only a few directors I'm custom seeing, like Chidi Chikere, Andy Chuku, Uche Nancy, and the Moses brother. Cannot remember their names now.
      I love Ogedengbe's story; it is authentic unlike the average Nigerian who are pretentious. They lie to look good which does not work in America because nobody cares if you are struggling or making it. People dont know and they really do not care. Most of the time people who think they are pretending to be making it are invisible. This is an individualistic society.
      In America, one can only impress his or her family by graduating high school, college, and choosing a great career, and making a profitable living from it. The rest of the society do not give a dam about you.
      Also, today, it does not pay to show off because in one day, one can move from riches to object poverty.

    Bro Teju, I need to say thank you for sharing these stories. I really love the stories that you and your guest share. One thing that resonates with me as a 30+ man is that the journey of life can be long and our individual experiences are varied and unique.
    Even though my journey is very different from many of your guest, I find that the many lessons about family, perseverance , fame and even career change are ingredients in shaping my perspective about my own unique challenges.
    Thank you sir. Just a side note, we did not get your usual commentary at the end of this episode.

We learned a lot from Femi because he was allowed to talk. Thanks, Teju. It's better to work hard and not fall to temptations. Now he's reaping the fruits of making and taking his decisions, considering the situation of our country(i no fit laf jare...comparing low currency to high currency 😂😂). He
    also has a good wife. He is so proud of her. He has his own house now. Thumbs up for taking the plunge.

    @TejuBabyface and @FemiOgedengbe very lovely interview. I just kept wondering how come I don't know Femi Ogedengbe, I left Naija in 1992 December 31st. I am a year older than Femi...how did a fine boi like Femi get to live such a hard life? Butter looking fine boi Femi? How can Femi call himself an omo gutter with his butter looks...I know he now has an ugly belly but you can see thru and see that in his younger days he was good looking. I can't understand how he mixed with street Bois in his younger days. I am glad Our Father has a plan for his life.
    This interview is hands down the best of a very competitive series. I was disappointed that it only lasted 1hr.

      This indeed is a masterclass in survival. Kudos to Femi for weathering the storm. His testimony speaks to the power and advantage in walking with a life partner. Some want to wait until all their ducks are lined in a row to take the leap, but they forget the wisdom in the saying “if you want to go fast, walk alone; but if you want to go far, walk together.” Nk is his walking partner and they’re walking very far. Slow and steady wins the race….emphasis on steady. A load is easier to bear when there’s a good and willing partner to share it with.

    I always wondered why people criticise any available source of survival someone can lay his hands on. Any work that feeds you and your family is worth it and you can be proud of yourself for making ends meet for yourself and your family. Please be proud of yourself and thank God for everything 👍🙏❤️💯

    There is dignity of labor in any advanced😢 country. But 9jer likes to show off by putting down jobs that could temporarily get them to another level. Kudos to you, Femi. " Anything worth doing is worth doing well " with dignity, of course.

    Hi Mr Teju, with your reach, I would be very glad if you can get Mrs Funmi Adams on set. We need to see her again. I hope she is still alive. Growing up in the early 90's couldn't have been complete without her.

    It’s only when we are in Nigeria that we feel like “Security job” is beneath our status, but in America, Security job is a professional job just as any other job. To survive as a new immigrant in United States, you have to do what you got to do to survive, be it home care job, security, cleaner, etc. It’s those Nigerians back home who are naive of the situation outside the shore of the country that put negativity into what others are doing abroad to survive. Bola Tinubu is now the President of Naija, but he did security to survive while in Chicago. So, what is the big deal about anyone doing security abroad? If you come to the States, you can come and start as a Bank manager and let’s see who’s gonna give you the job. You better humble yourself and face the reality, the easiest jobs to survive in America are Security and Home Health Aid (HHA).
