It’s Tough To Be a Nigerian- Tems
Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Temilade Openiyi, better known as Tems has said being a Nigerian is “tough”.
The singer disclosed this in a recent interview with Kiss FM, London, United Kingdom.
She noted that being a Nigerian woman is a ‘miracle’ and despite how tough being a Nigerian is, if one engages their talent well, it would take one to where it would be appreciated.
Adding that Nigerian women are “blessed” and “special” to her.
“Being a Nigerian woman is a miracle. Because being a Nigerian, for anybody, is tough. But I think if you can tap into your gifts and own who you are and be unapologetic about it, and take that to the world, that is an honour.
“I think Nigerian women are the most blessed. I won’t say the most blessed but everybody is blessed in a equal manner but Nigerian women are very special to me. They are very dear to me and I believe that it is such a huge blessing to be a Nigerian woman and to be living in this time.” she said.
