“When I was in year two, I wanted to drop out. There was this theatre troop from Abeokuta. They said they needed dancers in Russia. So I went to Abeokuta and from Abeokuta, we went to Ife. We rehearsed, did everything, and were ready for the performance. It was a carnival in Russia.
Out of the 12 people, I was the only one given the visa and I can’t travel alone because it’s a troop. I can’t go there alone,”
I was very happy. I thought that was the moment my story was going to change because I was going abroad. I had already left school.
I didn’t go to school for almost two weeks. I was rehearsing and dancing, so I forgot about school. But it didn’t happen because I couldn’t travel alone. So I was broken. I had to go back to school.”
