“I sold 2nd hand clothes to survive in the university, now i wake up to gifts daily”- Dorathy Bachor

First runner up of bbnaija season 5, Dorathy Bachor has opened up about her life before and after the bbnaija show.

Dorathy spoke to Punch about the challenges she encountered before her participation in the big brother naija reality show and her new found fame.

“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.
