Nigerian comedian Ayodeji Makun, popularly known as AY has expressed concerns over the huge expectations of people seeking assistant from the rich without considering the effect of such on them.
The comic, who took to his instagram handle @aycomedian, lamented on how it affect the rich while pointed out how everyone expects you to help them once you have some money.
The comedian wrote:
“From not wanting to disappoint anybody, people consistently expects u to PLEASE everyone.
“It is only in Nigeria your 1Million Naira will attract 20 friends & family with 100k problems each?Why do they always fail to understand that if you give everybody, you will become BROKE too?
“People around you should understand that you cannot please everyone all the time.
“It usually ends up being a terrible move whenever you try to do that amongst people who fails to understand, or lack appreciation for even the little you do.
“We can only appreciate the sermon of ‘Give and it will come back to you…’ when you are in position to give.
“There’s always going to be someone disappointed, so you might as well make yourself happy and Be You. ‘Givers never lack’ no mean say make you lack sense.
“According to Timaya ‘I CAN’T KILL MYSELF’. he added.
