Iyabo Ojo shares her journey from single motherhood to success

Iyabo Ojo stated that despite raising her children alone at a young age, her life turned out better than many expected. She credited her achievements to faith in God, resilience, and perseverance, adding that parenting often comes with moments of uncertainty, exhaustion, and emotional strain.

“There’s confusion in their midst. I’m the president-general of single mothers because my daughter has succeeded, my son has succeeded, and my life is better. When you’re raising children at a young age, you almost run mad. There were times I didn’t know which road to pass. If they told me I’d be a landlady in Lekki, I’d say it was a lie. It wasn’t me, it was God,” she said.

She further spoke on relationships, stating that men and women both make choices in marriage, while stressing her admiration for fathers who actively care for their children.

“Na man go leave you, na man go marry you. Na woman go leave you, na woman go marry you. Put your faith in God and see whether God will not do it for you. I easily fall in love with fathers that take care of their children,” she added.
