Femi Ogedengbe has attacked those criticizing his job as a security guard, saying he has achieved more than he did as an actor.
In 2016, Ogedengbe relocated to the United States of America, a move he recently revealed was prompted by poverty.
In a new video, an angry Ogedengbe addressed his critics, saying that the only people who should be ashamed are the leaders and Nigerians who have failed to make the country work.
The actor added that he has achieved more as a security guard than he did as an actor in Nigeria.
“Oh yes! I am now a security guard in the USA and so what? Well, I have only been doing this for a little more than one year now and I can boldly say without any shame that what I have achieved more than I did in my father’s land being an actor/director/producer for over twenty-something years. My wife and kids are doing better now. I’m now living like a human being. Back in Nigeria we live like animals. It can only happen in a sh*t hole country. We know we have great people, but the evil people will not allow the great people make things work in Nigeria. Do you know how many Nigerians are here working a security guards? Great musicians, great actors, Graduates, People with two, three Masters, we are all working as security guards here
“Yes I’m a security man, You know how much it’s worth? Why do you think people are trekking to Libya? I don’t care if Nigerians say Former Actor now a security guard, as long as it puts food on my table and ensures a better future for my children, I will do it. Unlike in Nigeria. From people like Buhari, Atiku, Obasanjo, you all are evil! Step aside, let people like Donald Duke, Pat Utomi, Fela Durotoye, Let young men come and take the affairs of Nigeria.”
Femi Ogedengbe said most African Leaders once did menial jobs
“In fact, the stories about most pan-Africa Leaders like Mandela, Kwame Nkrumah, Julius Nyerere, Robert Mugabe and a host of the generation after them were all involved in one menial job or the other across western countries to support their education.
But today, we can only remember them for being great African leaders and not for the dirty jobs they had to do on their road to greatness. Indeed the end justifies the means.”
He added that the only people who should be ashamed of their jobs are Nigerian leaders
“It’s a shame. I don’t know when this country is going to get better. All we the youths do is go on social media attacking each other.
