Accra born Nigerian singer, Timi Dakolo recently took a walk down memory lane when he visited the building he once called home on 15 Christ Apostolic street, Mile 3 Diobu, Port Harcourt. The father of three who has been privileged to sing for some of Nigeria’s elites, shared a photograph of himself seated among other residents of the house now which is located in a slum to tell of God’s mercies and how far he has come since winning the maiden edition of Idols West Africa in 2007.
“In a write up to help motivate others, Timi Dakolo said, “It wasn’t always like this (referring to his status presently). Once upon a time, it was the oversize shoe so you would grow into it, the “no food this evening”, the mosquito war at night, the “go home you haven’t paid school fees”, the “just manage food go dey when you come back from school”, the constant dodging of the landlord, the “no Christmas dress this year,” the hustle to meet up WAEC fees before the deadline, the sanitation fee, the “no worry my pikin e go better…..”
“In all I had the most beautiful family, awesome uncles and aunties, great cousins and friends. The house on my picture was home for like 15 years, we enjoyed no. 15 Christ Apostolic street, Mile 3 Diobu, Port Harcourt. This picture shows there is a God and he is interested in your matter.”
