Though contrary to what has already been circulating the media concerning why she didn't proceed beyond her current educational qualification which Olajumoke attributed to family challenges, her mother said she asked to be enrolled for apprenticeship as a hairdresser.

Kamorudeen said, "After she left primary school, she told me that she wanted to learn hairdressing, so, we took her to a shop here in Iree where she started to learn the occupation.

"That was the reason she did not go beyond primary school. After she completed her apprenticeship a few years.ago, we organised a graduation ceremony for her."

She expressed her joy concerning her daughter's fame, and advised to be obedient to people she will be working with in her career, and hope to visit her in Lagos when she has settled down.
