April 16, (THEWILL) – Divine Ikubor, aka Rema, has stated that he made his first million naira when he was 17 years.
The singer made this known in a recent interview with Z100 New York.
According to him, after he made the money, he gave it all to his mother.
“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 doesn’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, it’s cool. 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,” he said.
He added that his biggest achievement is being able to provide for his family and create opportunities for others.
“Someone created an opportunity for me to bless the world this much. So, I can’t imagine how much the people I helped are going to bless the world. You know, I go hard not just for myself. I go hard for them. As doors open for me, I wanna open doors for them,” he added.
