Renowned celebrity Publisher, Bashorun Dele Momodu, has opened up on the reason he is unable to offer financial aid to individuals seeking his assistance.
In a post on his Instagram page, Momodu said he’s overwhelmed by his own projects that required him to be absolutely disciplined and focused.
Using the Almighty as his witness, the publisher said he’s overwhelmed by his own projects that required him to be absolutely disciplined and focused.
He, however, prayed for those who genuinely needed help that God would meet them in their time of need.
“SINCERE APOLOGIES… It has become necessary for me to offer apologies to those who have asked me for one support or the other in recent times for my inability to help. God is my witness, I’m currently overwhelmed by my own projects that require absolute discipline and focus. I pray that God will help me to be able to bless those who genuinely need help,” he stated.
To those whose phone calls he’s been ignoring, Momodu explained that his action showed how deeply he’s pained not to be of help, adding that it’s a sign of respect for them.
He also declared that his income remains modest and always tries not to overstretch his luck to please anyone.
“If I have not picked your call, it is because I feel too pained to say NO to you. It is a sign of my respect for you, and not of disdain.
“I’m a man of modest income and I always try not to overstretch my luck. I wish for your kind understanding at this difficult moment,” Momodu concluded.

Globacom has congratulated the Christian community in Nigeria on the successful completion of the 2024 Lenten Season and the celebration of Easter festivities.
The company released the goodwill message in Lagos in commemoration of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Good Friday and His resurrection on Easter Sunday.
It charged Christians and Nigerians at large to embrace peace, love and good neighbourliness which are central to the life and teachings of Christ Jesus.
“Christ laid down His life for the remission of the sins of mankind. He exemplified sacrifice, hope and love for others. Without these key virtues, humanity cannot thrive,” the company noted.
The telecommunications giant said that these virtues must be imbibed by all to have a nation that will guarantee the good things of life.
While wishing its subscribers a happy celebration of the Easter holidays with their families, friends and relations, Globacom promised continued provision of seamless voice, data and Short Messaging Services as well as other value added offerings during and after the Easter celebrations.
Nigerian singer David Adeleke, aka Davido, has said he met his wife, Chioma, before he became rich and famous.
The billionaire son disclosed this while featuring as a guest in the latest episode of The Bridge Show.
Davido said if he had not met Chioma before he became successful, it would have been difficult for him to find love.
He said, “I have a very rich friend who is single, whenever I’m on the phone with my wife, he would be like he has everything in this world but this is what he is missing.
“I met my wife before I had money. I was saying to myself if I didn’t meet her and now I was single, and I met a girl, I already know that she’s talking to me because of who I am and what I have.
“To me, success is when I am doing something and I see all those people who were around me when I was nothing, and they see me now. That’s the sweetest thing ever. Not that you blow up and you start hanging out with different people. You need to keep the people that were there with you when you were grinding.”
