Popular Nigerian singer, Inetimi Timaya, professionally known as Timaya has stated that it is no longer possible for him to go broke again.
The singer made this known on Friday when he posted a picture of himself on Instagram with the caption, “Some things ain’t possible again. Like getting broke. Never!” (sic)
His hit song, ‘Plantain Boy’ became an anthem for people that felt persecuted and oppressed by the Government those days.
The Plantain Boy crooner had recently recounted his rise to wealth when he shared his grass to grace story with the audience at the Coca-Cola Urban Music Festival.
Timaya had said, “I used to sell plantain but now I am rich. I suffered so much as a boy but I am now a rich man. Thanks to God. If you’re here and you think you are suffering, do not give up. Keep pushing because you will surely succeed.”
The singer, who hails from Odi in Bayelsa State, is the founder of DM Records. His solo career began in 2005 with the release of the song, ‘Dem Mama’, which also appeared on his debut album, ‘True Story’ released the following year.
His works have earned him several notable awards including Headies, AFRIMMA, One Nigeria Music Award, and NEA Award.
