The actress who is a single mother of one, made the declaration in a recent interview with Saturday Beats. Her words: “As a young woman, no sugar daddy would want to invest in you without getting a baby from you. I work like a slave and I sleep in my shop in Ogba.
.
.
I don’t just sleep there for a day but for weeks. I stay in Lekki Phase One but I sleep on the bare floor in my shop for months. I bathe in a gutter, my workers would hold a cloth to cover me from the public eye and I would bathe there and I am a celebrity. This is what I do often and I work like a slave.
.
.
Aside from being an actress, I am a fashion designer; I also sell jewellery, shoes and bags. I used to travel out of the country most times to Senegal to buy goods but I cannot do that anymore because of the exchange rate.
.
.
The clothes that we used to sell for about N70,000 is now about N160,000 and nobody has such money anymore. When I travel to Senegal to buy my goods, nobody knows that I am a celebrity because I work like a slave.
.
.
If I had a sugar daddy somewhere, would I go through all this stress? I thank God that I am doing fine on my own. I have paid my dues. In fact, you cannot tell children of nowadays to sleep on the bare floor, they would not listen.
.
.
When my daughter is around, she joins me and sleeps on the bare floor and same goes for my sister, Arike. I do all these because if I decide to always go to Lekki, I may not be able to save money.
.
.
The truth of the matter is that I have paid my dues; I endure a lot even more than my age and stardom. If you work hard, God would surely reward your effort. I don’t have a sugar daddy anywhere.
.
.
If I had a sugar daddy, people would know because they would want a child from me. No man in Nigeria would invest so much in you without expecting something in return.”
