In her words:

"This used to be our home, my parents gave birth and raised me and all my siblings in this "face me I face you" compound. My family lived here for over 25 years. Until my older brother built us a 5 bedroom bungalow in the village and started afresh. God was so good to us. Fast forward to 2025, my brother decided to demolish our old house and built this mansion in my father's compound and we moved in. Thank you Jesus."
