You see… she was a fighter.. she promised me that she will not die till My lil sis and I are done with secondary school!— Genevieve? (@Nwando__) April 28, 2021
This woman never stopped working her ass off!! She made sure we didn’t lack anything!! We never even knew they gave her a said amount of years she will live till I was cleaning her space one day and saw life assurance documents.. I will never forget everything I saw…

Just if this country didn’t fail her!! If she had real friends that pushed her instead of only looking to ‘milk’ her!! If maybe we were more grown up and we could have ‘changed it for her better’.
It been 6 whole years and I have NOT FORGOTTEN YOU MOTHER!!— Genevieve? (@Nwando__) April 28, 2021
But if you have your mother here, right now.. loving parents?? Supportive?? See… spoil them!! Spoil them silly!!
I see bags, hairs, shoes, clothes I wanna order for my mom so bad but she’s not here!! I see people’s moms and I wanna hug them so bad!!
Do it now!!!! Don’t wait.

Seee.. I wanna get married some day and do better with my kids, I wanna live long for them.. so I WILL LOVE MYSELF SO HARD!! Love them so hard to make selfish decisions sometimes!!
No one may truly understand my bit but Nigeria failed my mother.. she was so good..— Genevieve? (@Nwando__) April 28, 2021
That I was gonna go back… I cried.. I told her yes but I knew in my heart that I didn’t wanna do it HERE!! I was filled with HATE!! I wished I could do something..
I was right there.. in the room starring when she breathed her last.. just me in there. I thought it was a joke..— Genevieve? (@Nwando__) April 28, 2021
Forgive me also.. if I always choose myself first.. I wasn’t always like this. But it’s in my veins.. I could spend my last money on people… strangers and I have to pinch myself sometimes and say “what killed my mother wouldn’t kill me”
I’m gonna be successful, I’m gonna..
