"My car somersaulted and I was lifeless, then my late mom called and I sneezed back to life"—Saheed

Bed ridden for three months after his car somersaulted and he almost died, Saheed Balogun learnt the greatest lesson of his life - that he can survive anything.

A few years later, he invested N25 million in a film, pirates ravaged the film and he only made N800,000 in return.

He has never said this anywhere else, but he ended up homeless, penniless and wanting to end his life.

Then his mother said to him: Do you remember when you were in the hospital almost lifeless and nobody thought you were coming back to life?

Well, here he is now - and he has come to testify.

Then, we discuss how he has managed the marriage ‘scandals’, how he has dealt with the Baba Ijesha controversy, and why he is unabashed in his support for Bola Tinubu, even if some of his fans disagree.

A veteran with 40 years in the industry under his belt, #WithChude today.

#WithChude has been revolutionary at the forefront of issues around sexual abuse, depression, HIV/AIDs, diversity, shame amongst others, and continues to break new ground – holding space, sharing grace, and calling in.

Focused on narratives that enable and strengthen the mind (mental health), heart (emotional health) and spirit (spiritual health), its themes center on empathy, compassion, mindfulness, wellness, happiness, love, joy and food for the soul.
