TVC E. Aituaje Iruobe popularly known as Waje , the Nigerian singer whose vocal range covers three octaves, has revealed the hardships she passed through while taking care of her daughter.
According to her, paying rent, school fees, and other miscellaneous expenses was a task.
“I had my own share of pillow cries and made sure she doesn’t see it. Sometimes she could come asking, “Why didn’t you and my Dad stay together?”.
“When I first moved to Lagos, I couldn’t afford to have my daughter with me because I didn’t have a house; I was squatting with someone. There was a time I saw her like twice a year.
There were times she cried, mummy I want to come and live with you, but I couldn’t afford it till 2011. Yet looking at my daughter, I will be honest that she is a blessing.
And the blessing outweighs the challenges. I have learnt to be patient, more accommodating and to pay attention to details as a mom.”
The singer recently shared a photo of the both of them in an elegant new shoot after throwing Emerald a fancy poolside party for her 17th birthday.The party was attended by superstar Ycee as well as Rachel Kerr.
Waje (an acronym for “Words aren’t just enough”), also participated in the remake of P-Square’s “Omoge Mi” and featured as the female voice in the duo’s 2008 hit track “Do Me”. She also featured on Banky W’s “Thief My Kele” and M.I’s “One Naira”.
