Nigerian fashion designer, Veekee James recently spoke about how her mother raised her and her brothers alone after their father died.
Veekee said she lost her dad when she was about five years old and Her mother decided not to remarry or date anyone but focused completely on taking care of her children. Veekee said she never saw her mom with any man and the only time her mom did not sleep at home was when she attended church night vigils.
She said her mother worked very hard as a tailor in Ajegunle, Lagos and sewed clothes to feed and support the family and even taught Veekee how to sew. Veekee James said this skill and her mom’s advice that she should not follow men but stay focused, shaped her into the successful woman she is today.
