Build your fame on foundation of truth, not clout, IK Ogbonna advises
Popular actor, IK Ogbonna has advised his followers to build their fame on the foundation of truth and not follow the new trend of building fame on clout and other vices.
He also warned against using money to buy fame or tearing down established names in order to become famous.
Talking about the dangers of getting fame the wrong way, Ogbonna said such negative approaches lack substance and don’t last long.
He noted that truth, talent and consistency are the virtues needed to build a long-lasting fame.
In a post on his Instagram story, he said, “In today’s world, clout is the new currency, and many people are desperate to spend. Some use money to buy attention, others tear down already-established names, and many just become loud for the sake of being noticed.
“But the truth is, not all fake is created equal. Forced fame might get you quick recognition and momentary hype, but it rarely lasts.
“There’s no solid foundation, just mine. The pressure to stay relevant becomes overwhelming, and the same internet that crowned you today can cancel you tomorrow. In the end, it’s not the game you gathered that matters; it’s how you gathered it. Fame without purpose fades. But fame built on truth, talent and consistency, that’s legacy.”
