The fairy tale rise-to- fame of Olajumoke Orisaguna in 2016 inspired millions of Nigerians, captured the interest of international media and served as a prayer point for many who desired such overnight transformation.

Olajumoke became the modern-day Nigerian Cinderella when she accidentally strayed into a photo shoot helmed by TY Bello, a Nigerian singer/photographer, while hawking bread on Olonode Street, Yaba, Lagos.

Following her accidental encounter with the photo shoot, TY Bello and Azuka Ogujiuba, a former senior reporter with THISDAY Style, collaborated to make a model and celebrity out of Olajumoke.

Subsequently, companies rolled over themselves to favour the 30-year-old. At the end of the media blitz which included features on CNN and BBC, the bread seller got a five-year rent of a fully furnished apartment bankrolled by Sujimoto, a luxury apartment construction company. She also secured modelling contracts with e-commerce company, Payporte, and Zenith Bakery.

The interventions and series of accompanying developments saw the fortune of the bread seller take a leap – but three years down the line, things are not as rosy as expected in the life of the mother of two.

eelive can reveal that she is struggling economically and her relationship with Sunday Orisaguna, the lover for whom she has her two children, is on its way south as well.

At the moment, Olajumoke cannot boast of any concrete means of livelihood. At home, things are not easy. Sunday said life has been incredibly tough, and that help is farther from him because many people assume that Olajumoke has made it big, and that consequently, he’s also rich.

He lamented that Olajumoke and her family have refused to agree to the formalization of their relationship despite having two children together.

Although Olajumoke and her erstwhile manager, Azuka Ogujiuba, would not discuss the details of their parting of ways, both maintained that they remain friendly and accessible to one another.

Sources close to both parties, however, insist that the severance of their relationship has left the former bread seller at sea.

This suspicion was confirmed by Sunday who told eelive that “I think she was better when she was with Azuka because Azuka and TY Bello have great connections that paid Olajumoke more”.

Sunday also complained that he is often kept out of the loop of Olajumoke’s activities.

He said: “I just know her manager calls her, they go out and return late. Sometimes she returns as late as past 12am and without explanations. She doesn’t even tell me where they go and what happens.”

The former bread seller herself confirmed that things are not as promising as they were three years ago.

Although she has no job and savings, Olajumoke spoke of her desire to have a home of her own before the existing rent expires in two years and to establish a haircare business before the end of 2019.

Been a while she was in the news. Toke Makinwa, Tonto Dikeh, Princess Shyngles, BobRisky, Toyin Lawani, Hushpuppi, Mompha, Daddy Freeze and Jane Mena have all been working overtime to keep her out of the spotlight.

Una wey like free money. Check the link in my profile
Only for the first 10 people

Hope she don't go back to the bread...

Sad

Social media can make people look rich but in the real sense they are as broke as bleep.

That is why you should not allow what you see on social media rush you to do what is not right.
Every body on social media is a millionaire but in reality some don't have what to eat.
Be wise

And who said I didn't? Did you ever read anywhere that mentioned that Olajumoke would need to get her own home after the rent on the Sujimoto's apartment expires? I'm looking forward to read that from you if you come across it

Orisirisi

Tough times don't last, tough people do.

I have nothing of value to add to this thread.

" I just know sometimes., her manager calls, they go out and return late. Sometimes she returns as late as 12am without any explanation "


Okay

A popular saying comes to mind here, "be nice to people on your way up, you might meet them on your way down"

Kai

Life

She was destined to be poor

Las las she go begin sell bread again.

Hmm

No engagements. No savings. No investment. What is the essence of having Azuka and TY as mentors if they didn't guide her to invest a part of her earnings in fixed deposits or to set up a business before now?

Misplaced priorities, Opportunity comes but once, who knows what went wrong, but she should have engaged her self in something that would be fetching her income from the onset....
It's better to remain poor than to taste riches and return back to poverty....!!

Lol.
Even a sperm donor is catching feelings?
Let the woman be!You didn't marry her then why should you marry her now?We all know bride price in SW is liked to buying two basket of atarodo and you've a legit wife!But nay,she was good for a baby mama then,what changed?Her new luck?

NB:For those quoting me,that her baby daddy is just a hopeless liability.As soon as she focused on getting more education and endorsement,I suggest she let him go his way.Guy knock her up the first time,he no pay
brideprice,Knock her yet again,no brideprice.Now her star is begin to shine he wants to sew ashebi?Na craze dey sorry am for head.She doesn't need him anymore.I suggest he go to a bakery nearby and get another bread saler.Nonsense!

This Is really pathetic ... Fake life everywhere

Such is life...

Wehdone sir

It's a Hard Knock Life
