Thank God
I don’t look like what I’ve been through ..just went through some of my old Facebook photos, the struggle got me all emotional
Can’t believe
I’m now a testimony.
Most of you ,that knew me in community secondary school ,ugep must have bought my ice cream before
They used to call I,and my sis @mimzewa “ice cream girls” she couldn’t take it. She ran to America

I never really concentrated in class , cos I always want to rush to the park with my cooler of ice cream and pure water for passengers coming back from Enugu to the park
From selling of burns ,
hawking of mango, water leave , oranges
To buying and selling of okrika from Balogun market, to uncial ,
selling of drinks in different clubs ,catwalking for various designers ,without pay ,hosting weddings and all events ,
Ushering people in and out Different occasions,
Running away from home to Lagos
becoming who i am today
Is a miracle.
