My heart broke too. But I recognised this for what it was. The universal language of African parents – Emotional blackmail. I’m not an unholy thing, I said. I am not a sin. In spite of how hurt I am that you said that, I won’t accept it. No be me go kill you.
Immediately alarmed, she said – I would never call you a sin, you are my child. I love you. You will always be my baby but – No buts. You say you love me, then love me. She talk her own, I talk my own sef. Finally – so one day, you will bring home a wife? Yeah, most likely.
Hmmmm. She heaved. Hmmmm. I heaved too. Mine was of relief. I am officially out to my mother.”

“So today, After I got back home from location, really wanted to redo my cornrows. Usually, Marvelous would do it but everyone travelled. I sha sent my PA to go get me someone from a salon nearby. Next thing I saw him come back with this little girl.
Not more than 13 years. She kept telling me thank you, prayed for me.. said she’s so happy. It’s the first time she’s making a celebrity’s hair. I told her it was fine then she goes..
A lot of people wouldn’t have let me make their hair. They’d say I’m too small.
Long story short, sometimes all people need is someone to believe in them. I’m really grateful to all of you who believed in me when the world refused to give me a chance. My goal is to work hard to make sure you’re proud of that decision.”

”That’s crazy man. I always knew that guy was something special. What a King. Just because I decided to defend my country doesn’t mean I cant appreciate his greatness”, he tweeted.
