BBNaija’s Ifu Ennada Recounts Childhood Struggles (Photo)

The ex-housemate of Big Brother Naija, Ifu Ennada, has disclosed her struggles in life before getting into the limelight.

In a post sighted on Instagram was an image of her throwback photo and her current photo.

She used her experience in life to advise her followers and to urge them to be grateful to God.

Giving credits to God, she explained that, individuals should always compare their past and presence before they say that, God has not been good to them.

To her, she survived starvation and had to move to the village twice, because life was difficult in Lagos.

She wrote:

“Progress Report Before you say God has not been good to you, look at what he saved you from!

In my old picture, I was dried up from starvation, not the sickness, pure starvation, but you can see the smile on my face and the iPad in my hand – a sign that Hope was/is still alive and that I was still working.
___
Some things that got me through my very tough days were; thinking of a great future, dreaming gigantic dreams, and working towards achieving them.

I was born with “no spoon” at all and moved back to the village twice when we couldn’t afford to live in Lagos anymore. It was in the village I helplessly watched my younger brother die in front of me because we were so poor we couldn’t afford good healthcare…

I’ve been working my a$$ off since I was 15 and have always had to work hard for every single thing I have, maybe this is why I take life too seriously sometimes.
____
I call myself “Ifu Ennada”, which means “Nothing is Impossible with God”. I do not take God’s grace for granted and will always have faith in Him, no matter how things get or how many times I cry.
____
I’m writing all these to motivate someone out there who might be on the verge of giving up!
___
Pls, don’t! Think of me as God’s sign to you that things will fall into place someday!

This year alone I have lost more than I can count, I have been depressed and went bald from stress-induced alopecia (my @beautifuennada)”
