“I wasn’t expecting this opportunity. I had lost hope and thought the industry had written me off. However, Moja Love has shown me that none of that was true. I’m living a dream. I thought it would never come true,” he said.
Innocent said the channel approached him to shoot a pilot. They loved it, and he was called for a season shoot.
He believes prayer from opened doors for this opportunity.
“My family has been supportive and never gave up on me.
“The show has authentic stories that resonate with a lot of people. My promise to viewers is to keep them entertained while educating and informing them about life challenges and overcome them.
“Acting will always be a passion of mine, but presenting has opened my eyes to a world of opportunities.”
He said his worst moment was when his life was consumed by drugs from 2000, which cost him his R2 million house, cars, and good friends.
“My best moments are when God shows how much He has my back and has given me another chance,” he said.
