Newsfaze : Pepper soup business paid my fees – Annie Idibia
According to my sources, The wife of Nigerian music Legend, 2face Idibia ,Annie Idibia, has revealed that she went through thick and thin while growing up to make ends meet, in other words, life wasn't easy while growing up for her.
The Nollywood movie star who spoke as a guest at the just concluded ‘YourDreamsOurReality’ series at Terra Kulture in Eve Secondary School, Lagos, revealed she once sold pepper soup with her mother to keep up with living.
Mrs. Idibia, who is also a mother of two
, urged the crowd of students not to give up on their dreams, she said, “I want you all to follow your dreams. I don’t want you to feel like the next person is more privileged than you and use that as an excuse for failure.
“I had no break time when I was in secondary school because I had to go to the market during breaks to buy pepper soup things from the market and put in the fridge for my mom to cook and sell in the evening. And after school, I would assist her in selling.
She said she had to do that because that was how their fees were paid.
Annie said, “I didn’t have a better option, so I had to do that to help my mother. And that was how I and my brothers’ school fees were paid.
“Today, I am living my dream,” she added.
Sometimes life can be cruel at first, as we all know, its not everyone that Is born with a golden spoon . All you need to have to be untop is a hussling spirit, a good heart and perseverance.
Some are lucky to be born into a rich family while some are not, just like mrs. Idibia and many others. There is also one other thing, without God, having a hussling spirit, a good heart and perseverance is of no use. Appreciate the small that God has done for you and he would do more.
