“Boss, how is work and the family? I am not sending you this message on behalf of anyone,” he said.

“I think I owe it to myself and my family and to be honest, I never thought that I would be here doing this at this time.

“First, I don’t even know how to say this. I honestly don’t know how to go about this. I feel like I am just trying my best to keep myself and be as respectful.

“I miss you. I miss you, God. I miss you, God abeg, abeg. God help me, I miss you sir.”

The comedian’s post comes amid the economic hardship in Nigeria and widespread frustration over petrol price hikes.
