I remember selling/promoting Corona beer at Sheraton hotel, Ikeja as a 19 year old girl. Standing from 2pm to 10pm everyday for a month, trying to convince people to buy the beer cos that was how I got a commission. 1k per day...lol.

It was so hard back in the day. I hustled so hard. Many didn't see it but The One who mattered the most saw me and when He was ready to bless me, He took my breath away.

God has been awesome. I'm not even half way through my journey yet.


By the time I'm done, the world will know that I Was Here. Thanks guys for all the birthday wishes. Kisses...😚😚😚"
