Nollywood luminary and online influencer, Adeyemi Elesho, popularly recognized as Yemi Elesho, has candidly unveiled his humble beginnings in a recent interview.

The accomplished actor revealed how he engaged in street vending, peddling items like Aboniki (a popular medicated balm), face towels, and bread to make ends meet before fortune smiled upon him.

Yemi attributed his initial steps towards success to skit creator and content producer, Woli Agba. He emphasized how Woli Agba played a pivotal role in launching his career, creating a pathway for his accomplishments.

Contrary to his present role as a content creator, Yemi admitted that he never envisaged such a future for himself. Reflecting on his journey, he shared, “I sold Aboniki and face towels in bustling traffic. I even sold bread. It was due to Woli Agba’s influence that I shifted away from the stage. The idea of becoming a content creator had never crossed my mind.”
