I was bus conductor in Lagos, APC didn’t make me rich – Joe Igbokwe reveals struggles

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Joe Igbokwe, has revealed his financial struggles before coming into limelight.

Igbokwe clarified that his source of wealth didn’t come from the ruling party as being insinuated in some quarters.

The APC chieftain said he was once a bus conductor in Lagos and has been involved in petty businesses before becoming successful.

In a post on his official Facebook page, Igbokwe said, “Some people will see me today and think in their wildest imaginations that I am rich because I belong to APC Nigeria.

“My story will choke you to the marrows. I  started feeding my mother when I was in primary school in the 70s. I fetched fire woods for sale. I fetched water for sale.

“I planted yam for people, I was a bus conductor in Lagos, I started a restaurant business as a graduate. I sold motor parts and I sold cars in Western Avenue  in Lagos and I buy and sell lands, I am an author of 5 books etc. today I am a fulfilled man. One thing led to another.”

Igbokwe has been constantly attacked online following his support for the ruling party and President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
