“Currently all my father does is to pray for me. Before my mother died, her last words to me were I should become all I can be and that I would eventually make it in Nigeria.

I really miss my mother and I wish she could see everything that I am doing now. I wish she could see that I have not given up despite the setbacks I encounter in my job. I think my mother would be proud of me.

If my mother was alive, I am sure she would always ask me when I would introduce her to my fiancé but before her death, she never pressured me about marriage.

Before she died, she told me that I should make sure I have done everything I wanted to do before any other thing. She said I should not let any man stop my dream.

That is what she said to me. Now, I am ready for marriage, I even sang about it in my new project.”
