Dr Ofweneke tickles our ribs with his comedy, but what many don't know is that he suffers from ADHD.

This is the first time he is speaking about a medical condition he has been struggling with.

Speaking to Oga Obinna on the KulaCooler show, Ofweneke said he had a troubled childhood in school.

He went to almost five high schools with many bluntly rejecting him for his behavior.

The boy is bright but his tongue, he will not survive in this school." This caused school heads to refuse to admit Ofweneke.

His disappointed dad blasted him issuing a threat "I finally landed at Mwea Boys in Kirinyaga, niliamua kutulia kiasi"

This was his turning point. "Mwea is where I discovered myself. I discovered what people think is my weakness is actually my strength. that's when I knew I suffer from something called ADHD."

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects people's behaviour. People with ADHD can seem restless, may have trouble concentrating, and may act on impulse.

"Whereby I dont have ...I have extremes. Have you ever noticed sometimes I am moody? So I can either be super excited or.. be honest I do like to be around people especially if I dont like your energy"

ADHD often begins in childhood and can persist into adulthood. It may contribute to low self-esteem, troubled relationships, and difficulty at school or work. Symptoms include limited attention and hyperactivity.

Treatments include medication and talk therapy.

The TV47 presenter said he found out it's a condition from his late mother's side of the family.

The exact cause of bipolar disorder isn’t known, but a combination of genetics, environment-altered brain structure, and chemistry may play a role.

"I used to wonder why in class I could not stay seated for ten minutes, coz I had to stand. I need to talk"

This used to cause problems with teachers. "My mind just goes. Now the problem is ADHD becomes worse when you have money coz now it brings out the arrogance element of it"

"Me I'm not humble OB I was humble when I didn't have. I am buying my dream car very soon. Bro, I am not putting tint. You guys have to see me. I hid when I was poor. Saa hii lazima mutaona"

He said he won't be humble about his success. "Bro the first job I was a makanga, the second a Mpesa attendant, a PS attendant," among other jobs he mentioned about grass to grace.
