These are not the best of times for Olawale Ojo, who won the sixth edition of the MTN Project Fame in 2013.

Olawale who has struggled in recent years with getting the right attention for his songs has been off the radar recently until he was discovered by journalist, Tope Delano who ordered a cab on her phone and her driver turned out to be Olawale.

In the interview, Olawale opens up about his struggle and how he has embraced his new life.

As shared with caption...

PROJECT FAME WINNER TURNS CAB DRIVER .... a lot of people ave been wondering where fan fav mtn pf winner Olawale has been hiding. The crowd pleasing crooner who held our hearts to ransom during his remarkable pf run disappeared almost as fast as he came into lime light.Majority of us have had to deal with extremely difficult decisions and as God would have it, rose above it all. I met Olawale a couple of weeks ago and at first he did not want to grant the interview but eventually did. I know alot of us have so many questions as to how he ended up here and I promise you, all that was dealt with in the full video. I listened to his latest song #blessing and guys, Olawale is way better than when he was in the house. Many may slam him, say all sorts but we should all RESPECT this king for damning the odds and chosing to do what he is doing now to ensure that there is food on the table. Work is work and you have my utmost respect for this. Thank you @olawalesings for being brave enough to share your story and reminding the world about self worth and work. All I ask, is that we all watch, learn and repost for as many to learn because this man shook a lot of tables! #projectfame #olawaleojo #music #hardwork #musiclovers #nigeria #blessing #motivation #inspiration #trending #trendimgvideos #gracetograss #love #vocals #blessingsongs

Country wey dey kill and destroy talent, hope, joy

This guy's story is not far from mine!

They'll tell you to keep keeping on, but then your age dey climb. You need money to keep body and soul together. Abi na when you clock 45/50 years you go marry, begin born?

Give an Igbo man five million naira, in three years he'll repay you back with fifty million naira.
When I checked this headline I was so confident it could never be someone from the liberated republic of Biafra.

I wish you all the best life has for you my Yoruba brother.

Iro oo! MTN where art thou?

correct guy, at least he didn't venture, into drug business, fraud, sugar mummy/Gay or rituals. when life throws you off balance, you get up and restrategize

no job is better than the other ...u may be paid more but that does not make it better.......naija has to emancipate from this 3rd world reasoning

Cab driver!!! Is that a song?

not all gold glitters forever.

he has gone bankrupt not new where are d winner's of STAR Quest only Kcee odas dey are no where to be found

At least, he's still a millionaire

Is this for real? Being a cab driver ain't bad but not after showcasing your talent to the world.
After winning such a competitive show only to go back to drive taxi? Something must be wrong.
I love his spirit though instead of living a fake life on Instagram, he's hustling no matter what.
Kudos Mahn!

Ride on, buddy.

Life ain't always a bed of chrysathemums.

Sad Ish. But With FIVE MILLION Naira Dude Should Cave Out a Path For Himself Na.
But Wetin I Knw Sef ?

MTN wasted money on that futile show
