Mr Patrick who has distinguished himself with his unique brand of comedy series, and garnered a large following over the years, took to his social media platforms to express his excitement over the honours.
The Rib-cracker also shared some take-home lessons for all in the entertainment industry.
He wrote: “Awards and recognitions are meant to say “thank you. Job well done. We see you.”
Having received more than a few awards myself, in my lifetime, I know the feeling of fulfillment that getting one can bring.
But these ones right here, create an even deeper feeling of Joy, gratitude and a strong sense of achievement.
I have two reasons for sharing this moment of personal joy with you.
The first is to show you guys but all of our dreams are valid and that no man can stop whatever God decides would be.
I’m sure you remember how at this time last year, a coalition of people who did not mean well for me had come together and vowed that I will be deported from the same country, spreading unbelievable lies about me. Well, here we are today. The country has said “well done Patrick. Enjoy your stay, forever” .
Mr PatrickTv added, “Never let anyone threaten you into believing that your dreams cannot be.
The second reason I share this is just to say thank you. None of it would have happened without you. Mr. Patrick has the most supporting fans in the world.
Yes, I say that with confidence and this win is not for me. It’s for you on my behalf. Thank you very much. May God continue to bless all of you and keep supporting the brand. I will not let you down.
From the stage to the kitchen. Celebrity fish loading.”
Mr Patrick Onyeke started his career as a stand-up comedian over a decade ago and, since then, has appeared in many popular stand-up comedy shows in Nigeria, including Nite of a Thousand Laughs, Africa Kings of Comedy, Ay Live, and Basket Mouth Uncensored.
