Since 2016, I have desired to perform at the stadium for football ceremonies surrounded by 100s of dancers and millions of people.
A lot of calls came in almost every year when football championship preparations were made, but none were favourable.
I never said this, but at some point, I started feeling like my team was chasing them away, but something told me to let them do their job.
7 years after, Im performing at AFCON. Its indeed an honour and a dream come true. Its just the beginning! God bless my team, she added.
