So here’s the gist….about 24 hours ago, actress Tonto Dikeh shared a touching and emotional message with her fans…she narrated how she struggled and went through hell before fame…adding how she used to beg for food and clean rooms for N200.
Here’s what Tonto wrote (to understand the words better, replace the ‘z’ with ‘s’ 🙂
“Hmmmm looking back and all I can say iz Lord I thank you for talent
oh life waz nt easy somtimz it seemz iz d end of d world, n somtimz I
even sit n ask God why me? N somtimz I used to say why waz I nt born
