Posting a throwback photo of herself she wrote;

Look at Choco 17yrs ago (2years before Nollywood/African Queen video). Wow
I have grown. I look at this picture with tears in my eyes, looking back at different stages of my life and all my struggles.
Wow, to think there was a time I had no house/roof over my head, at ojuelegba under bridge at 2am with a little bag hanging under my arm (@femibrainard69 do you remember?).. Thanks to Shola aka Shaggy Dread who opened @ogidantade OGD studios for me to lay my head for those weeks (I had to wait till everyone left the studio, or was sleeping before I came knocking on the window.

Look at me now #Choco.
This picture brings memories. LASU days, as a law student we had to wear white and black everyday (hence the white top) to class.
