How my mother’s suffering pushed me into music – Rema
Afrobeats star, Divine Ikubor, also known as Rema, has disclosed why he pursued a career in music.
According to the young artiste, he ventured into music to alleviate the suffering of his mother.
He decried the impact the daily struggles his mother faced with transportation expenses had on him.
“I couldn’t bear seeing my mom trekking every day, unable to afford bus or bike fares,” Rema recalled. “That’s why I was determined to succeed quickly.”
Furthermore, the singer explained, “The moment I earned money, I bought her a car right away.
“We celebrated with dinner, and then I presented her with the car. While many would prioritise their vehicles, I prioritised hers because she’s the reason behind my success. Her prayers have been my strength, and I’m immensely proud to make her proud.”
