Gerald Azonobo Kicking Old Habits?

-

Gerald Azonobo, a multimilli­onaire, used to be a man about town.

In fact, at a time, he could be described as the King of groove, if there was anything like that.

He was Known for driving posh cars, wearing expensive dresses and designer watches. He was even a VIP card-carrying member of many A-list night clubs on Lagos Island. It was also rumoured that club owners could afford to shut some people out of their clubs as long as he was around.

But suddenly, Azonobo’s face became a rarity at his regular hangouts and social events. This phase, no doubt, gave a lot of his friends a serious concern. While he recoiled into his cocoon, many claimed that Azonobo was broke, while some maintained that he was only trying to kick some old habits.

But one thing was obvious: many night clubs counted their losses with his new found ‘lifestyle’.

Interestin­gly, Anozobo found back his groove. In other words, just as many were wondering what had really become of the top player in real estate, he made a sudden reappearan­ce.

Almost immediatel­y, he, again, won the admiration of night clubs owners with his usual heavy spending.

But just as many were excited to see his return, the Edo State-born businessma­n disappeare­d the way he came, thereby making his fans wonder if all was well with him. At the moment, his sudden disappeara­nce is again fuelling gossip in the social circles.

However, a source revealed that there is nothing wrong with the Meekly Properties boss, but that he has only decided to change his old ways.
