Nigerian singer, John Odafe Asiemo, popularly known as Daddy Showkey paid a visit to the single room where he was raised, in Ajegunle, Lagos, IGBERETV reports.

The singer who filmed the visit revealed that he, his mother, and his brothers lived in that single room for years, until he became famous.

He revealed that the video for his hit song, Dyna, was also shot in the room. He also revealed that he still pays rent for the room and has been doing so for years, even though he has no idea who the current tenants are.

Sharing the video on his Instagram handle, he wrote;

" I took a visit to the house and the room I use to leave with my mother and my brothers you can’t believe I was born in house in this same room, I still retain the room, I still pay for the room till date I don’t even know who is leaving in the room today I have a lot of history in that house, oh my God"

Where it all started...from grass to grace.

He has a very strong attachment to the room.

Glad he is paying the rent and doesn't even care who is living inside it.

Leave

Truly, this is not news worthy.

Grace

Do not despise the days of little beginning

Back to the root

Showkey baba, we still love u. U hv played your part in d music industry and u never gave us nudity to watch, u never gave us yahooze to sing, u never gave us politician to hail.
I really missed d good oldies, not all these indomie generation that liters everywhere including iyaebe

Unfortunately that room still reflects on his existence, that's why he couldn't differentiate the difference between LIVE and LEAVE

No wonder he built his mother a nice apartment

He was actually a yahoo boy

Wow. Some men just do things that melts your heart . He must have a soft heart.

Mothers are just so strong. I can relate to growing up with my siblings and mother in a single room too. May God bless our mothers.

Daddy Showky,as a financial expert, that's a waste of your resources.#fact

Stories like this is a motivation for all legit hustlers out there.....Don't ever give up in life, weeping may endure for the night but joy cometh in the morning.

Nostalgic for him. I can quite relate. I still visit the compound and house where my parents stayed and where we grew up while in secondary school at Owerri. Quite a number of the people are no longer there but a few others still recognize us and whenever I go there, I hang out with the men and share gifts to the small boys and girls. My history won't be complete without that transition.

May divine Grace, and Heavenly Favour locate us all this year in Jesus Name, Amen....

Everybody just wan use something catch clout. And bloggers go use am for content. Abeg, make dem demolish that building, build something better. Showkey focus on your future. You have been musically irrelevant for the past 2 decades.
