In a post on X on Wednesday, the comedian shared that he is combining his passions for film and agriculture to develop “cinematic agriculture stories.”

He expressed gratitude to his followers for their support and encouraged them to stay tuned for inspiring content showcasing his new creative direction.

“My people! I’ve been cooking something! Combining my love for film making with my passion for agriculture,” he wrote.

“Thank you all for reaching out! I’ve been working on cinematic agriculture stories. Watch this space for some inspiring content.”

In 2021, Donga reflected on relocation, noting that people often move to find places where they can reach their full potential and live peacefully.

‘The truth is leaving Nigeria does not guarantee you’ll get rich. Likewise, deciding to stay does not mean you’re more patriotic,” he wrote via X.

“Sometimes, all people want is where they can maximize their potentials & live in peace. Whatever you decide to do, I pray your dreams come true.”

Donga gained fame through the web series The Interview on Ndani TV, a role that earned him a nomination for Best Actor in a Comedy at the 2015 Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA).

He has appeared in several popular films, including The Wedding Party and its sequel, The Wedding Party 2.

Prior to his success in acting, Donga worked as a journalist and developed a career as a photographer and filmmaker.
