Nollywood actor Ibrahim Yekini, popularly known as Itele, is reflecting on his struggling days after his record-breaking YouTube achievement.

On his Instagram page, he noted how he went from being overlooked to being overwhelmed, and how he grew from that boy from the hood that people once ignored.

Speaking on his success, Itele said he chose discipline over distraction and consistency over excuses. According to him, there were no shortcuts, noise, or distractions; there was focus, pressure, and faith in the process.

Using himself as an example, he told his fans that if he could ride from the hood to global impact, they could do it too.

“From overlooked to overwhelming.
That boy from the hood they once ignored chose discipline over distraction and consistency over excuses.

No shortcuts. No noise. Just focus, pressure, and faith in the process.
If it can rise from the hood to global impact, you can do it too.

Let the results speak.
Let the journey inspire.
This is proof that dreams respond to work”.
