In a recent appearance on Channels TV’s Sunrise Daily, Mr Shem Obafaiye, the retired Deputy Commandant General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), revisited the iconic 'Oga At The Top' TV interview that catapulted him into national fame in 2013.
Obafaiye humorously recounted the unforgettable moment when he fumbled while discussing the NSCDC's website during a job racketeering interview.
Despite being redeployed after the incident, he emphasized that he was not sacked and expressed gratitude for the understanding shown by his superiors and colleagues. Reflecting on the aftermath, Obafaiye acknowledged the psychological impact but highlighted the positive aspect as 'Oga At The Top' became a national slogan.
He playfully revealed that his wife even patented the slogan, turning it into a source of humor and potential revenue. Overall, Obafaiye's story provides a unique perspective on the unexpected turns of internet fame and its lasting effects on an individual's life
