So I thought I was going to have a soft landing there. I packed up everything from Nigeria, bought a one-way ticket, and came to America.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cI was put in a well-furnished house and all of that. Then two days later, the person who I was supposed to book a deal with said to me, \u2018Those our financiers have pulled out. They have an issue.\u2019 So, I said, what do I do? He was like, \u2018From next month on, you will have to start paying rent in this house.\u2019 The amount of the one-month rent was equivalent to a one-year rent in Nigeria.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>I\u2019m like, \u2018I\u2019m not earning any money so what do I do?\u2019 I don\u2019t know what to do. So, shot into that life, I had to figure out what to do. I had nowhere to go. Nothing to turn to. My phone was buzzing, like, \u2018When are you coming back to Nigeria? We have this gig for you.\u2019 Teju, $1,500 was all I came to America with. How do I buy a ticket to go back to Nigeria?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>My life pattern then was so disorganised in the sense that I didn\u2019t have a proper saving culture. With all the money I was making in Nigeria, my life was a m*ss. I sold my cars and gave out like 90 per cent of all my belongings in Nigeria. I was like, I\u2019m going to America to live a good life and all of that stuff. How do I buy a ticket to go back to Nigeria? Lord, what do I do? And God said to me that \u2018Welcome to the life that I arranged for you. I needed to break you away from your comfort zone so that I can build you.&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>I was like, \u2018No, no, no \u2026\u2019 He was like, \u2018Yes, welcome to it. So, here you are, now way to earn a living. How do you move forward?\u2019 Then, sometimes I will be in my room crying. I\u2019m like, \u2018Lord where do I go from here?\u2019 And for some reason every month I get to pay the rent. I got connected to my church. And then someone gave me a car. I\u2019m like, what do I do with the car? And they said Uber. I was driving for Uber and Lyft to pay my bills.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In another different story, BBNaija Princess<a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2021\/08\/16\/bbnaija-princess-gets-a-car-gifts-for-her-taxi-business-from-fans\/\"> Gets A Car Gift For Her Taxi Business From Fans<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Recall that she had earlier revealed that she\u2019s a taxi driver and one of her dreams is to have a car transport brand.
