The meaning of my name is ‘God Protecter’ (Folorunso). And he has been doing that right from when I was in my mother’s womb. If it wasn’t for God, my mother wouldn’t have given birth to me. I thank God. I come from a polygamous home, from a family consisting of eight wives and 52 children. I am child number eight child to the glory of God.
Growing up, we learnt so much. At an early age of seven, my parents decided to send me and one of my siblings, who was six-year-old at the time, to boarding school in England. And that was a big change in my life. The weather wasn’t kind of course, for a little girl who has been in the sun for all her life and now had to wear winter coats and socks up to her knees. I did notot like the cold and still don’t like the cold. Then, you have to have your bath only once a week, which was the rule in boarding school.
