Nigerian singer, Divine Ikubor aka Rema has disclosed that he made his first one million Naira at the age of 17 and gave it to his mother.
He revealed this in a recent interview with Z100 New York.
According to him, he gave his mother the whole money because he felt she needed it the most.
Rema added that he had to prioritize his mother first as it it wasn’t appropriate for him to ride in cars when she didn’t have any.
He added that his biggest achievement was providing for his family and he is grateful he is able to do that.
In his words;
“The person who I knew needed it more was my mum. So, I handed everything I made to her. I know it was cool to drive around the city as a 17-year-old in a cool whip. But I can’t drive a cool whip when my mum didn’t have a car or my mum has to borrow my keys. You know, I had to put her on first.
“Passing all of that to her, whatever investment she makes… I made my first million [naira] at 17 but I made more than a million. But it’s cool to be in that stage to be able to provide [for your family].”
“Someone created an opportunity for me to bless the world this much. So, I can’t imagine how much the people I helped are going to bless the world. You know, I go hard not just for myself. I go hard for them. As doors open for me, I wanna open doors for them.”
