In a recent conversation with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Guchi opened up on her journey of working in an ice cream shop to support her family
She expressed the need to take action rather than waiting for opportunities to come to her doorstep.
According to her, while working at the ice cream shop, her boss had seen her singing one fateful day, which unexpectedly turned out to be a life-changing moment for her.
In her own words:
“I used to work in an ice cream store. I didn’t want to sit down and say I have a passion for music and wait for Don Jazzy to come and sign me in my house. I had to feed my siblings and my mother”.
“This particular day, I was at the back, singing and preparing the ice cream so I could pour it inside the machine then my boss walked in and asked who was singing, and they all screamed Guchi.
“So he said, I like your boldness and then put his hand in his pocket. I thought he was about to give me a tip I would use to go home that day but he brought out a card. I felt so disappointed. I didn’t know that was my destiny helper.”
