Still, yesterday I stood on an unfamiliar stage with just one thing: COURAGE, and in front of millions of people I fought like a warrior. Mummy, your daughter did not win, but her fight won’t leave millions’ mouths in a hurry. Mama, thank you for raising a strong woman, a fighter and an unstoppable child of grace…It was indeed a great experience , even after training for just two days…Will I do this again?
OH YES, I did. Did I make you proud? Mummy w,ere you watching? Did you also hear when they played your favourite song? I wanted you around; that was why I asked for that song…Jennifer was even crying before I entered the ring. The world is proud of me right now, and I am sure you are too. Rest in peace, mummy. I love you forever. Big shout out to @balmoralpromotions @bet9jaig for this experience; I will never forget in a hurry”.
