Budding singer, Kessy Doris Mbonu better known as KessyDriz was shocked after she was gifted N10 million by Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state.
TheNewsGuru reports that the singer was among the artistes who performed at a recent homecoming concert held by the governor to honour Burna Boy’s Grammy win.
On Wednesday, Wike had made good his promise to compensate all artistes that graced the event the sum of N10 million each.
After confirming that she has gotten the money, the songstress took to her Instagram page to share a video of herself shedding tears of joy.
In a series of emotion laden posts, KessyDriz recounted how she had struggled to succeed as a singer, adding that the governor’s gesture has created a turning point in her life.
“Talk and do governor. All my years of tears, struggles, and depressions are over. 10,000,000 richer. What God cannot do does not exist. Big shout out to @burnaboygram, your win is indeed a win for all of us. Tears of joy. God has remembered me,” she wrote.
The singer said she had recently ditched her music career in search of other opportunities due to “hunger”.
“I left music to find a job so that hunger will not kill me. I haven’t even worked for one month when God said, ‘my daughter this is not my plan for you; I gave you this talent for a reason.’ Now see me today…” she added in a mixture of English and Pidgin.
