Ep 47 - A man's journey into fame

At the age of just 21 years old, Idris Sultan won the grand prize of $300,000 from Big Brother Africa House. He lost it all by the age of 23 and he was sinking in debts. He got his life together and cleared his debts by 24, and made three times the money he had lost by the age of 25. Sounds like a story made for Hollywood or Nollywood, right? I mean, for most of us probably that would be the end of us, and we would never be able to pick ourselves up and start again. BUT Idris is not most of us.

He joins Nadia and Michael, to talk about his story of resilience and how the best thing to ever happen to him was probably losing that money. He takes them on a ride of how he has had to build himself up as a human being and as a man to become the powerhouse he is right now. His fears on commitment, his views on love, the things he stands for, the price of fame, his mental health struggles, and why it is so important for him to look after his mental health.

But then again, this is Idris, he hit us with the breaking news about his future moves towards the end of the podcast. Enjoy the conversation
