He stated that his encounter with MC Galaxy turned out to be an unforgettable night, which influenced him significantly and altered his perspective on life.

Half a decade has passed since I was still working as a driver in Calabar when I stumbled upon Mc Galaxy and his companion. At that time, he had an intense desire for bush meat and palm wine from a place called Atimbo. We relished the succulent meal accompanied by refreshing palm wine before finally delivering them to the airport.

Looking back at today, I realize how much progress I have made. Had I abandoned my aspirations in the past, it would have been a regretful mistake on my part.

In 2020, Neo gained recognition after featuring in the BBNaija reality show as conveyed by OBASANJONEWS.
