Featuring in our INSPIRATIONAL today is Enenche Obonyilo, popularly called Enenche comedian. He hails from Okpaga in Okpokwu LGA of Benue State. Born on 6th December 198sth (lol) in Lagos, the Green White Entertainment CEO attended primary school in Kaduna State. He did his secondary education in the prestigious St Francis College, Otukpo. He bagged his degree in Chemistry from Benue state University. Enenche who is also social critic has learned his voice in several issues of national interest. One of such issues is the Makurdi-Otukpo-Enugu road and Agatu Crisis where he made his candid contributions that are making positive results.
Recently, he posted on his facebook timeline an inspirational review of his life and career:
"At times when you are tempted to complain, you just sit down and think of where grace has brought you from and you begin to thank God afresh.
I relocated to Abuja from Makurdi Feb., 2010 with all my belongings on planet earth then inside this bag and a small shuttle bag with my books. I was going to pay my rent of 200,000 when I heard a voice that the money was not a rent but a seed. I dropped it in Church and I left... the next week, my spirit told me move to Abuja. I never had the plan of moving.
I came in through NEW NYANYA MASS... I came to Abuja squatting with friends. I had three squatting points, I changed them whenever I saw I was becoming a burden...the only thing I had then was hope and faith that Nigeria has a place for me.
I was very known in Benue, and the Nite of a 1000 laughs exploits announced me, but when I came to Abuja, I forgot who I was from Benue, started afresh again.
I trekked afresh, I had a picture of the kind of audience and comedy and it was different from the conventional comedy then, so it made my assimilation into the conventional structure a bit difficult. I was not just flowing with them. I had a different burning desire in me... A desire to build something different.
I stayed off media, I never wanted media announcement...I wanted impacts announcement, so I began to build networks and contacts. I made sure I try my best to have good public relations and give a good impression on first encounter.
My first 500k deal came from a 10k wedding reception I anchored. My first 1 Million came from a 15k deal.
One of my greatest secrets is that I have never charged any church. I see the church like a place to appreciate God with the talents (but many have abused this gesture).
I am not there yet, but I am on the right path. I have been wired to look at corridor of powers in the eyes and tell them what posterity is saying.
Looking at how far God Has been with me, I refuse to complain, but to thank him for the journey so far and trust Him for where He is taking me to.
Appreciate God with me!
