“I was over half a Billion in Debt... But I still had to smile for the camera. I Never Told Anyone” - Comedian Mr Macaroni

“I never bring my personal issues to social media. I only wish to share this because I want people to learn from my experience.
Between 2021 and 2022, I lost everything I had saved to a scam. I borrowed from different sources just to fulfill commitments.
Still, I showed up for others, even when I was empty. Because that’s who I am.

2024 was a turning point for my Acting career. Two of the films I featured in were screened at international festivals.. my performances in some other films also earned me numerous commendations. However, It was also the most troubling year for me. I was burdened every single day and night knowing that I was over half a billion in debt.

Then came betrayal—sharp and unexpected—from someone I loved like a sister.
That pain nearly broke me more than the debt ever could.

But you see, I’m a warrior! I have never backed down from a fight. When I fall, I bounce back even stronger by God’s grace and I keep my head up. So I gathered myself, and made some very tough decisions and with the help of family and friends who have stood by me, I feel better than I have felt in the last 3 years!

So this message is for anyone in a dark place right now:
Don’t give up.
People may betray you. You may fall. You may even lose everything.
But as long as you have breath, you have purpose.
Fall if you must. It’s okay to make mistakes and learn from them. What is not okay is to keep repeating the same mistakes. Let love win in your heart—no matter how loud the hate becomes in the world."

“I Deposited N550 Million at First Bank Abiriba Branch to Keep It in My Community”—Businessman Dr. Agbai Eke Agbai

Renowned businessman Dr. Agbai Eke Agbai has revealed that he deposited N550 million into a fixed deposit account at First Bank’s Abiriba branch in response to an appeal by the bank’s former Group Managing Director. His intention was to ensure that the branch remained operational in his community.

“I deposited that money into a fixed deposit account, with a certificate issued to me by First Bank, based on an appeal from the former Group Managing Director. This was done to prevent the bank from being removed from Abiriba,” he stated.

However, upon his return to Nigeria, Dr. Agbai was met with an alarming discovery.

“I went to First Bank in Abuja to make a withdrawal, only to find out that N55 million had been withdrawn from my account by bank officials. They claimed that I personally made the withdrawals at their Uzuakoli Road branch in Umuahia, but at that time, I was not even in the country,” he explained.

Following an internal review, bank officials admitted to the unauthorized withdrawal and refunded the money. However, this incident raised serious concerns for Dr. Agbai, prompting him to take action.

“That was when I started sensing trouble. When I officially requested to close my fixed deposit account, I was shocked to be informed that my N550 million was nowhere to be found,” he revealed.
