If you have not got fame and money, you may have to thank your stars.
Sebi you can still perch by the roadside and buy akara or guguru and epa.
Famous people still love such but they must be too coded to patronise vendors.
One artiste lamenting such other side of fame is Peter Okoye.
He notes in an interview with Naija Fm that fame has come to him at a cost.
Okoye says, “Before, we used to pray for fame but now when I go out or when I travel I cover my face with a facemask, a face cap and even sunglasses to avoid being spotted.
“Most of us celebrities have parts of our lives that we don’t enjoy. There are some days that I’d be driving and I’d want to stop at the road side and buy food like hot akara but I’d have to send someone, to avoid being spotted. But by the time the person goes, buys the slats and gets back, it’s no longer hot. I miss being able to eat akara bread and co, ABC, that’s the best burger ever. I still like that life.”
