Egungun reacts to backlash over interview with iShowspeed

Nigerian media personality Kuye Adegoke popularly known as Egungun has reacted to the backlash he received after his interview with American streamer iShowspeed.

The content creator was criticised for introducing himself as Africa’s biggest interviewer, as well as asking Speed questions about his appearance.

Egungun, however, on his Instagram page, spoke about the criticism while celebrating his latest property purchase. He stated that critics do not matter, stressing that only efforts and attempts to be better matters.

”Congratulations to me and my FAMILY @pashotah @_princenala congratulations. It’s not the people who sit down and criticize that matter. It’s not those who point fingers and say, “You could have done it better.” The real respect goes to the person who tries. The one who shows up, works hard, gets tired, makes mistakes, and sometimes fails. Because nobody can try without messing up sometimes. That person still keeps going. They believe in something. They give their energy to a good cause. If they succeed, great — they’ve achieved something big. If they fail, at least they failed while trying. They will never be like those people who do nothing, say nothing, and stand aside — people who never win and never lose because they never even tried,” he wrote.
