Opara Chinonso Ibinabo, professionally known as Kim Oprah, a Big Brother Naija reality show star, has shared about her humble beginnings.
During her struggles, the reality TV star revealed that she sold sachet water and recharge cards.
This was stated by Oprah during an interview with Taymesan on the Tea With Tay podcast.
She shared her childhood experience, describing how she was forced to live in Abuja barracks after her father died. In the words of Kim Oprah:
“After my dad’s death, my mother was in the military. So we had to move into the barracks in Abuja to help with accommodation.
“When I went to University of Port Harcourt, my sister and I used to sell recharge cards, pure water and eggs around our side, because there was no closeby kiosk, where you could buy those things so we became the kiosk.
“Honestly, I’m just happy that I went through it because it really shaped me and made me stronger.
“I know what the hustle is, I have seen suffering. So coming out on the other side and being this person is like I understand both worlds.”
