From Hawking Bread To The Glossy Pages Of Magazines and fame.

I wanted to make it, I did all odd jobs to make ends meet I said to myself I'll rather not do prostitution or steal to feed my family because a good name is better than riches in this vanity world. I hated the fact that I had to feed the hard way. I started selling bread on the street of Lagos-Nigeria, Hawking under the steaming sun and cold rain, drenched still with my pan of bread going from street to street and house to house with my feet and throat almost worn out.                                    

In my lonely times I shed tears, in the dark I asked myself questions and get dim answers with veil. But sometimes I smile to myself believing that my now will always be better. This very day in the usual street of Lagos around my residence
where I bumped into the photo shot of a model and from that day, the search for me was of that who has committed a huge crime. I was found days after. Facing celebrities comparing their looks and outfit I would have been their garbage disposal. Few hours after the interrogation I was taken to the bath and brushed up I couldn’t believe it was me, I could hardly identify myself. As I did that cat walk on the global fashion Isle. That’s how I Olajumoke Orisaguna found herself on the glossy pages of magazines, fame and Nigerian social circles discussions. Today my joy is overflowing and I give all thanks to my creator.
