She immediately took up the responsibility of caring for the young girl. She also revealed that the girl has become a good dancer and is doing well in school.

Her words:

"Ruth is 10 today guys! First time we met in 2019, she told me ‘I want to be a yahoo girl when I grow up.’ Her words broke me. She wanted to be more - and in her environs, more meant ‘FRAUD’.
"Her mum told me how Ruth had to stop school due to their money struggles. I told the mother we’d enroll her back in school."
