Neo Akpofure, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija reality show, recently revealed that he used to work as a taxi driver before gaining fame.
Reflecting on his humble beginnings, Neo Akpofure shared a throwback photo on his official X, showing him as a Bolt driver in Calabar five years ago alongside popular musician MC Galaxy.
He mentioned that a chance encounter with MC Galaxy led to a significant evening that impacted his life and changed his perspective.
“5 years ago today, I was still driving a bolt in Calabar when I picked up Mc Galaxy and his associate. He was craving bush meat and palm wine from somewhere called Atimbo. We enjoyed the meat and palm wine together before dropping them off at the airport.
“Fast forward to today, I look back and see how far I have come. If I had given up on my dreams then, na me for fuck up.”
After his stint on BBNaija in 2020, Neo Akpofure has successfully transitioned into a career as an actor, model, and social media influencer.
