Broda Shaggi said he was not yet ready to reveal everything about what he had been through, but assured his fans that he had not forgotten them.

“I wish I could tell y’all everything right now but I can’t. Not yet,” he said.

The comedian also hinted at a return to the spotlight, promising that he would come back stronger and ready to reconnect with his audience.

“I’m hoping that day comes soon. And when it does, I promise I’m coming back better, stronger, and ready to make up for all this lost time,” he wrote.

Broda Shaggi ended the message by expressing his appreciation to those who continued to stand by him.
