In an exclusive interview with Sunday Scoop, the funny father of one, real name, Francis Agoda, spoke on the real reason he built the magnificent mansion, which he nicknamed the ‘Golden Eyes Mansion.’
According to him, “It took a while to build the mansion because I wanted it to be of good quality.”
”It had always been a longtime dream of mine because I feel that our mothers deserve so much from us, considering the hard times the African woman goes through for her children. I just felt that was my only way to encourage our mothers to keep investing in their children, irrespective of whatever circumstances they find themselves.The Golden Eyes is a gift of hope to all mothers that someday, they will smile for being there for their children,” he said.
On the recent African Child award he received alongside former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, he said,
“I really didn’t have an idea of the award till I was informed that I was nominated. I had to find out more about it and its standard. Then I discovered that it took a voting process to select the recipients and that allayed my worries about its credibility. It is wonderful to be acknowledged that one’s life and creativity has inspired many people to believe in their dreams, regardless of their parental background.I feel privileged to be bestowed with the Africa Child Prize award; it gives me more reasons to hope and pray that many young children out there on the street from poor backgrounds would enjoy this special grace that God has vested in me.”
He revealed that when he was a young boy, he used to invent electrical components just to make sure that he did something worthwhile with his time and rise beyond his poor background back then. He also stated that apart from being a comedian, he has a construction and property development company.
