In this interview with Social PR, Lexie ,he talks about his life as Mr. Anambra Universe, the controversial loss of his brand victory car, reveals some other sides to him and talks about the big show , AnambraGotTalent.
Excerpts…
So before Mr. Anambra Universe, what was your history with pageants like?
Laughs*….uhmm my first pageant was a departmental pageant (mr sociology). Before then I had always wanted to be a super model but I wasn’t serious about modeling. One day a girl walked up to me with a form and said “I bought this form for you because you’ve got what it takes to win mr sociology”. I thought she was just kidding and the next thing she handed over the form to me and asked me to fill it. Iwas touched and inspired I had to fill it.
When I got home that very day I talked to my friend about it, he encouraged me and said it would be a good start for my modeling career.
After that, was Mr Anambra Universe the Next Pageant?
Actually I was signed under Anseek modeling agency. My second pageant was mr unizik.I was the winner in equity *laughs*,if you understand what I mean. my third pageant was Mr. ideal Nigeria 2014, though I didn’t win but I felt like a winner because it gave me all the exposure and the experience one needs in pageant. After that was Mr Anambra universe.
Wow, you seem to have won pretty much almost all your pageants?
Yeah…*smiles*.
Let’s talk Bionic, how has it been since clinching Mr Anambra Universe crown?
Believe me, I have no regrets. It has been great. It has actually made me to be a better person than I was.
Everyone knows Slamii to be cool, nice and cute. Aside the looks and physique, what’s it about Slamii people do not know?
*smiles* Well, there is a lot people don’t know about me, anyone that cares to know ought to really get close.
Nice…the looks and physique sure brings the ladies, how do you cope with them?
Well, it has not been easy and I still keep appreciating them but I don’t go extreme.
You in a relationship? yeah?
Hehehehehhehheheh* ah ah naww this is not who wants to be a millionaire. *pause*…Yes but I don’t want to talk about it.
I’m sure your fans would like to know at least just one thing they never knew about you? Maybe something you love doing or know how to do . So tell us
I sing professionally and I am also songwriter. But what I love doing most is swimming.
So recently your fans learnt you lost your brand car. They find it hard to believe how such happened. Can you give more background into the incident?
Some persons never believed it, they thought it was a publicity stunt. But the fact remains that the car is still missing. I woke up that very morning trying to hasten up for my exam and decided to steam the car first. I came out from my apartment and realized that the car had been taken away from where it was packed in front of my closet. I made some calls asking some of my friends around,if they saw the car and no one admitted to have seen it.
It was very frustrating but I am on my feet now. *voice drops*,They can only take away what they see which are material things but they can’t take away what they can’t see which are non material including greatness, potential,skills and abilities. I worked for it and I can always work for better one. I am designed to forever stand tall and live by my knees, because I am a conqueror.
That’s saddening…any reactions yet from your brand, Bionic about the car, are there any efforts in place to recover it?
Yes. They have reported to the police and they have gotten other security agencies involved.
Okay that is cool. Moving forward. AnambraGotTalent is the next big thing. What should we expect and how should Anambraians and Nigerians participate?
AnambraGotTalent is the next biggest thing. It is a show that aims at unlocking and exploiting hidden talents and potentials,and also a platform for any talented person to become what he/she has always wanted to be. The winner goes home with A brand new car, one year contract and a trip to south Africa. As consolation, top three finalists go home with Lcd plasma television each.
Every interested participant should visit (AGT) www.anambragottalent.com for details.
What are your dreams and vision from here after #MAU#AGT?
Later this year I will represent Anambra at Mr Universe Nigeria. There are other things ahead but I wouldn’t want to disclose them for now.
Fair enough! So you might want to give a shout out to your fans before we wrap up?
