On her Facebook page, she noted that despite her hustling in Nigeria, she still looked finer and fresher than her current look in America.
She listed some factors that may be responsible for the changes in her looks.
Her Facebook post read:
“Living in that USA aged me so fast.I don’t know what to blame. The food. The weather. The people. The stress. The solitude. Or the fact that I miss my mummy and daddy so much
“But I have aged so much since I moved here. I was hustling bad in Nigeria/ But I was still finer and fresher than I am here in the USA. This is a reminder that maybe this weather is not the best for tropical bodies just like mine. But nonetheless we keep moving. When shall I see my home? I will never forget my home.”

"It happened to me at first. My skin that was like honey, started wrinkling. I couldn’t recognise my face in the mirror. It was covered with big pimples and thick patches. Until, I started using skin care. Both cosmetic and simple home made like ice and egg. My skin has recovered and my people say I look younger now, even."
