Nollywood actress, Annie Idibia took a walk down memory lane and recounts her struggles at a very tender age till date.
The wife of legendary singer, Tuface disclosed on her Instagram page that while others had time to play in their secondary school days, she had to sneak out of school to carry on with her mother’s side business.
Her post read “Looking at the beautiful young Annie in these pictures is lovely. You’ve been through all sorts of hell from a very young age, with so many responsibilities from so young. That girl never gave up.”
“From SS1 she never knew what it felt like to go on ‘break time’ like other kids in school because that was when she sneaked out of school to the market to get her mother’s pepper soup ingredients that she would have to cook after school to sell in front of their Boys Quarters in Mobil, VI.
“She will wait till her single mother gets off work at 7pm to take over from her , those hours before 7 pm were the longest ever because she would have only a few hours left to study and do her homework before bedtime.”
“I want to thank me for never giving up on me. For all the No’s I didn’t allow to discourage me and lose focus,” her post read.
“Girl, you have come a long way, Adulthood is still the hardest. The saying, ‘whatever doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger,’ is the true interpretation of the life of this girl; now a strong woman! I have not even started, just only scratching the surface now.”

So many of us grew up like that even the men some of you married and don't want them to support their families all struggled like you Annie.
ReplyDeleteAt least we understand why you are holding tight. Don't give up for another woman to take over your comfort. Sit tight.
That explains why she married Tuface and why she is ready and happy(well not totally happy) but ready to take all the rubbish and stay put…. It’s called poverty… she does not ever want to go back to that and she does not want that for her girls as well
DeleteYour first paragraph! 🤝
DeleteSame with Dakore Egbuson Akande.
DeleteYou don't come from a broken home and sit back watch another woman cripple your home, you fight for your two daughters or more.
Fight on Annie. Sweet babies Isabel and Olivia mustn't pass the road you dreaded.
✌️🤝🤗
Morning my dear Chisom.
DeleteHer first paragraph Chisom. Very 💪
DeleteGood morning love🌺
Delete@Lovetoloveu, I'm telling you!
Opportunist. Instagram staff
ReplyDeletePlease let this woman breathe. She is not the cause of your problems. Biko rest.
DeletePero Pero international 🤣 I know you will be here as usual! Spoilt babymama 😂😂😂
DeleteOh dear. BVs are mouthed!
DeleteHaba 08:42. We all have our stories.
DeleteYes o Favour,She is spoilt as fcuk 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteEveryone has got a story to tell ....
ReplyDeleteNo cross No crown.
Every young millionaire/billionaire, in fact, every single soul has a story to tell. Those stories are the reasons why we should all be smart and wise enough to make decisions that wouldn't leave us in perpetual penury. How will i go through rough times during my childhood days and still open my eyes and get into a chaotic marriage that'd be messing me up mentally, emotionally and physically? Don't i deserve better in life? Was i created for unnecessary sufferings and emotional torture?
ReplyDeleteEverybody should graciously carry their various crosses biko. Both the ones they purposely gave themselves to carry because of whatever gain they think there is in the cross and the one life imposed on them, carry it and allow others carry theirs too. Who's life is a bed of roses? We all got life stories Lol.
Next please!!!! Yen yen yen. You think you and your mom were the only ones that struggled? Even Tuface mama that you don't regard, also struggled to give him a better life. I wish you will birth a boy, I'd say you should make sure the treat you the way you treat your mother in-law.
ReplyDeleteExcept you live with them or have first hand info on what happened, please shut your mouth. As in just zip it.
DeleteStella please I posted my last comment to this Anon with my ID, kindly delete. Thank you
DeleteThis woman doesnt know how and when to shut up, if shes like this online, imagine what living with her will feel like. Tuface de try sha
ReplyDeleteWhy should she shut up. The culture of silence in nigeria needs to be stopped!. Sometimes crying out is the only way to save your sanity!. Healing is a process. Sometimes everything has to come out for there to be healing. Sometimes everything has to fall apart so it can be rebuilt!
DeleteIts all gone from lovey dovey and powerful wife to e no easy. Annie, e no easy for many of us too. Then and even now. Shebi u go school. Many wanted too but couldn't. So well done your own.
ReplyDeleteMake we hear word joor!
ReplyDeleteIt is even wrong for your mum to allow you at that age to leave school premises to run errands for her.
My mum did the market waka, cooked and even served customers until we are free from our school engagements to join her.
So how did you pass your WAEC exams?
Special centre abi?
No wonder you, being a product of broken marriage, still married a "baby papa" with eyes wide open
Stella pls respect your fellow struggling or suffering women,stop posting comments from Pero on this blog.
DeleteLove starved Pero, go to sleep.

Delete10:46, go to specsavers.
Delete@ Anon 10:15
DeleteI am not Pero. I am not any of their fans. I am not even Yoruba, Akwa-Cross or Benue.., so hold it there.
Everybody is entitled to his/her opinion on this blog.
This is Stella's blog visitors. We don't lick arses
Stop supporting bullshit and say your truth.
It is well with you Annie
ReplyDeleteWe all had stories of not no easy childhood,Annie no be only you.
ReplyDeletePlease just leave social media for now because its like we're hearing too much from you.
Is anybody stopping you from telling your story. Free her , she deserves to live her life the way she wants to
DeleteTell your own story nah! Who stopped you?
DeleteOne little girl going through her story may actually be encouraged not to give up.
Annie most of us pass through this same phase ,it didn't kill us it made us stronger and better it is well dear.
ReplyDeleteAnnie no be only you jare, but some of us decided to go to school at all cost get jobs or businesses not doing runs up and down , smoking and doing drugs. Den you decided to choke tuface that is a serial baby daddy with your choatic love. Sebi you be akwa/ cross river babe but uncle still dey go follow Benin woman, Yoruba and the likes . You won't face front be disturbing him upandan. Even if he is going to meet Pero ehen? What did you expect? You thought you wouldn't share.lol. go and manage your home and give that man a reason to change if he doesn't, endure in peace and prayers or you take a walk. Ehen, avoid talking about yourself and family on social media focus on your brand. Pele Annie this is your cross.
ReplyDeleteWhy should she avoid talking about herself on social media? Does she do it on your page? Bitterleaves
DeleteGirl not only you,most of us passed through those rough patches even they men most of married...until you hear the journey and stories of some people that are living well now passed through,yousef go shut up cos yours is moimoi.
ReplyDeleteSo ur mother is a single mother,u saw her struggles and u still went ahead to marry a man with multiple children and babymamas? Didn’t u think of ur unborn children’s future? ..what were u thinking??cof of wealth??That he will shut them all out cos of u??? Well u made ur bed,lie on it and don’t seek for sympathy.everybody has a struggle.
