Thank God I am also selling dog meat with palm wine now with my father. That means I will also become very successful soon and tell people about my past.
Come to think of it, everyone always have something to say.

I don't know what message she was trying to pass with this nkwobi line. Is it a 'grass to grace' kind of story?

My childhood friend who sold banana from primary school to junior high and still made it to the top is a true story of poverty to comfort.

Omawunmi's mom owning an nkwobi and pepersoup joint is a thriving business most Nigerian families cannot afford to own.

Anywho, her talent and contribution to the Nigerian music industry cannot be underestimated.
