Dorathy cries out as her mother arrives her house with mortar and pestle
Bbnaija season 5 first runner up, Bachor shared with her followers how her mother brought a mortar and pestle to her house, in preparation for Christmas.
“Guys my Mum came over today and she brought her Mortar and pestle. The Christmas pounded yam tradition is a must”- she wrote.
Imagine waking up every day to gifts and goodwill messages. Everywhere I go, all I hear is my name and it feels different from three months ago when I woke up to uncertainties. I was hustling for contracts and dropping proposals from office to office, yet some people didn’t even give me audience then. But now, my life has gone from 0-1000. The Big Brother Naija platform has given me so much publicity. My life has obviously changed.”- she said.
“I lost my father 13 years ago and since then, the burden of taking care of me and my siblings had been on my mother. I did not get the chance to enjoy my teenage years and a part of my youth because I always had to look for ways to make money. I sold clothes while I was at university.
I would go to Yaba flea market in Lagos State and get first-grade secondhand clothes, which I would then package for sale. I tried to make extra money instead of waiting for my mother to shoulder all my responsibilities.
I tried to make extra money instead of waiting for my mother to shoulder all my responsibilities. I didn’t go into the details of my life in the house because I didn’t want people to give different interpretations to it or pity me. Sometimes, I didn’t get any contract for four months.
Even when I got white-collar jobs, they did not last. People made me feel I was not good enough. However, I am grateful this has brought me this far.”- Dorathy added.
