According to her, it all started with her ‘struggling to survive’ status as a wife and mother of twins, where she sold ice block, soya milk, moimoi, and the likes, to make ends meet—all these, while of course having a good voice, which she freestyles with every now and then, but did not have enough money to officially take her passion to the studio.

However, her ‘destiny helper’ met her one day in 1999, convinced her into believing that her voice was good enough for the studio and the world to hear, took her to the studio, paid for the session, and gave her 5,000naira afterwards—the birth of “Ị dịghị ajọ njọ”, her professional debut.

According to her, she thought that the 5,000naira was all she deserved and was very satisfied with it, as it was a huge amount of money as at then.
Little did she know, that the man started traveling around with the song, taking it everywhere with him for people to listen to.

Then one day when she stepped out to buy pap for her babies, the shop owner recognized her saying, “aren’t you the woman that sang that song? Your face is everywhere, you’re a celebrity!”.

Amb. Udoma said that she ran to the man, when she got there, there were buses everywhere with her face printed all over them, which the man had been traveling around with, promoting her song.

The man then explained everything to her, how busy he had been, traveling all around, and how well her music is beginning to do. The man then gave her a huge sum of money—the beginning of the pleasant change in her life.

“And from that day on, I have never known a better yesterday!”, she said.

She also added that when she first sang the song, one of her neighbours mocked her, asking whether she ventured into music out of hunger and frustration, which Amb. Udoma said added to the motive behind the lyrics of one of her other subsequent songs, “Never mind them”.

She concluded by encouraging the crowd in attendance to believe God and expect a 50million blessings before the end of 2025, declaring that everything will turn around for their good.
