Popular reality star, Terseer Kiddwaya has opened up on the challenges faced as the son of a billionaire especially after a tweet of his received backlash.

In a recent interview with BBC Pidgin, the 27-year-old entrepreneur raised in the UK clarified a tweet about ‘the difference between himself and others is hard work.’

During the course of the interview, the reality star bemoaned the belief that he didn’t have to work hard to be where he is today.

According to Kiddwaya, Nigerians have a long way to go in terms of thinking.

He advised Nigerians to desist from the notion that because a wealthy person gives one a piece of advice, they are looking down on the person.

Kiddwaya stated: “I feel like people completely misinterpreted what I meant. I feel like, in this country, a son or a daughter from a wealthy background cannot have an opinion, cannot talk, cannot eat, cannot sleep, cannot think.

''They are not allowed to do anything. What I was simply trying to say is hard work gets you far. It is simply for motivational purpose.

''What I face on a regular is that people don’t believe I work hard because they feel like ‘oh, it’s your dad’s connection, your dad gave it to you’.

''They have this misconception that everyone from a privileged background gets things handed to them easily. And to be fair, that’s not the case.”

When asked about his financial status, Kiddwaya stated that he is not a billionaire like his father but he is striving to be somebody in life too.
