Awww Timi Dakolo has said he COULN’T SLEEP the first time a fan looked at him and DASHED HIM N1m.
Timi gave the revelation in an interview with Chude Jideonwo.
The 42-year-old recounted how he had never seen such an amount of money before, and then the huge dash!
Dakolo, who achieved victory in the inaugural ‘Idols West Africa’ singing contest in 2007 told the story thus;
“There was somebody that gave me N1m from nowhere. I had never seen N10,000 before.
“The money I used to have then was always N1,300, N800, N1,200, and N520. And somebody gave me N1m cash. He came to the hotel and gave me N1m. He said he doesn’t watch TV but he saw me on TV and he felt he should give me N1m.
“I saw N1m, I could not sleep. I was looking at the money. I said, ‘This money will change.’ I was speaking English that day. Me that used to disturb the whole place, I was quiet [sic]. I caught myself speaking good English.”
