Blessing CEO warns Alax, viral fish-pie hawker, of being used, dumped
Controversial Relationship expert Blessing CEO has shared words of advice to the recent viral fish pie seller.
In a recent video, she advised him to be mindful of his newfound fame and to approach opportunities with carefulness.
Blessing emphasized the importance of being strategic and productive in the face of sudden fame, warning that without a thoughtful approach, he may be discarded by those who initially supported him.
Alax Evalsam, the once-anonymous seller of fish pies, shot to fame when a video of him passionately belting out catchy chants to sell his pies went viral on social media. His infectious energy and raw talent struck a chord with millions, turning him into an overnight sensation.
But as his story unfolded, it became clear that Alax’s life behind the screen was a far cry from the bright, vibrant energy he exuded in his videos.

He has since received support from individuals, including celebrities, who have offered him gifts, collaborations, and performances at prominent Venues.
In a heartfelt revelation on her page, Miraj detailed how she ventured into the slums where Alax and his family lived, offering them a lifeline out of hardship. She instructed Alax and his family to pack up their belongings, a command that must have sounded like a dream come true. And without hesitation, they obeyed, eager to embrace whatever new chapter lay ahead.
But the surprises didn’t end there. Nons Miraj, like a fairy godmother, whisked them away to several grocery stores, where Alax and his family were given free rein to fill their carts with food, clothes, and other essentials. The look of sheer joy and disbelief on their faces spoke volumes as they picked out items they had once only dreamed of owning.
The pinnacle of this emotional journey came when Miraj drove them to a newly rented apartment. No longer would Alax and his family have to endure the harsh realities of slum life.
In a final act of benevolence, Nons Miraj handed him N200,000, ensuring that Alax and his family had more than just a fresh start—they had hope, dignity, and a newfound sense of security.
