She looks like a strong, tempered, poised and graceful African Queen. Her vibes looks like it also saying loudly “Don’t mess with me!” Conclusion:She’s a Lioness 🤩

@@Betty-fe9ql I see nothing wrong with her speaking in cameras, the world needs to appreciate her more. Many young people have talents but they’re parents are not willing to support but here she’s injecting her effort all for Burna to shine at the top. She serves as a best example to many Parents who still hesitant to support their kids

You always sound bitter with your comment, if you are a mother of a successful child like him, would you pray for your son to just end up with a wrong woman?
