I made my first million at age 17 and handed it to my mum — Singer Rem
Nigerian singer, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has revealed that he made his first one million naira at the age of 17.
The Dumebi crooner disclosed this in a recent interview with Z100 New York. He said he gave all the money to his mother.
He said, “The person who I knew needed it more was my mum. So, I handed everything I made to her. I know it was cool to drive around the city as a 17-year-old in a cool whip.
But I can’t drive a cool whip when my mum didn’t have a car or my mum has to borrow my keys. You know, I had to put her on first. Passing all of that to her, whatever investment she makes… I made my first million [naira] at 17 but I made more than a million.
But it’s cool to be in that stage to be able to provide [for your family].” The 24-year-old singer said his biggest achievement is being able to provide for his family and create opportunities for others.
