By Ejiofor Toochi

Popular Nollywood actor Joseph Benjamin has revealed the reason he drove a cab in the United States of America.

The TV host revealed this in a recent interview on The Teju BabyFace DeepDive Podcast.

Benjamin shared that upon relocating to USA in 2016, before he started connecting to the industry, he had to earn a living.

He had gotten to America on a promise that he had some gigs waiting for him, and was put in a well-furnished house. Unfortunately, that didn’t work out and he had to eventually pay rent. “I had nowhere to go, nothing to turn to.”

After moments of breakdown and praying to God, things started getting better.

He shared, “And then someone gives me a car. I’m like, What do I do with the car? And they said Uber. I was driving for Uber and Lyft to pay my bills.”

Benjamin added that he carried several Nigerians, some of whom took photos with him and were inspired by him.
