On this list we present to you, a quick run down of six humble celebrities in Nigeria: 1. Tuface Idibia: Tuface Idibia is easily considered the most humble Nigerian celebrity out there and a look into his life will make you see why.

In a very lengthy post on Instagram, Movie Director, Jeta Amata has paid tribute to his seven year old daughter for making him quit smoking after such a long. He also talked about his daughter’s excitement when she learnt that he finally quit the unhealthy act. I wouldn’t call it a nag, or just a soft reminder, but over the last year, my 7yr old has been constantly reminding me of the need to stop smoking. Finally a few months back, just to get her off my back, I said I’d quit in a “few months”. That was June. She decided the few months ended in August after our birthday on the 21st and started counting down to September 1. The day before, we had a talk and I agreed it was going to end the next day. I was still stalling, looking for a way out. Read on: http://newspepa.com/how-my-seven-year-old-daughter-made-me-quit-smoking-jeta-amata-37527

Julius Agwu has made his first appearance on TV following his surgery and the ace comedian is simply thankful. He spoke to Channels TV and explained that: Jumping all the hurdles and challenges of life, so many of us don’t really know what is going on inside. Nobody carries signboard of ill-health. So, I never realized what was happening, I just noticed that at some point, I was losing weight. Initially, I was working out trying to look shapely, because as soon as you clock 40 you begin to take some of those things seriously. I just noticed the over-work, stress and everything. In Nigeria, we really don’t rest, we hustle and hustle, we just keep working but oyinbo (white men) will work for vacation and settle, you know, rest. But our own, we hustle and even when we die, we’re still working as ancestors through consultations. I just realised that once in a while, I would have headache, take the normal pain relievers and it will go down until I had a seizure and was rushed to the hospital. That was the beginning of the story, when I eventually regained consciousness, I lost all my memory and I couldn’t walk properly.
