Saidi Balogun says he almost died after this accident - nobody thought he was going to survive. He was bed ridden for three months.


And then, many years later, he confronted the worst business decision he ever made - he invested N25,000,000 in a movie, the movie was pirated and he only made N800,000 


For the first time ever, he reveals that - already a celebrity - he was penniless and homeless. 


So, his mother asked him to come back to Nigeria and to visit her in Lagos Island - where she had some of the pirated copies. 


Then she said to him: “Do you remember when you were lifeless, and nobody thought you were coming back to us and I stayed with you and I nursed you and you came back and you lived? If you could survive that, you would survive this.” 


He learnt that life can be breathed into any situation.
