“I Came Back Empty But God Has Been Faithful”
In her viral video, Olami explained:
“I came back to Nigeria with nothing after wasting three years of my life abroad, and I had to start all over. This is just the 4th week of me starting all over, God has been so faithful to me. I know I’m not there yet, but at least I’m not where I was yesterday.”
She introduced herself to her growing followers, describing her journey as one of resilience, courage, and faith.
From Abroad Struggles to Business Hustle
Determined not to give up, Olami began making liquid soap in Nigeria. In an exciting update, she announced her first major breakthrough in business.
“I started making liquid soap when I got back and this is the result. Someone ordered 500 pieces from Ekiti State and this is what you can see,” she joyfully said.
“Don’t Give Up” – A Message to Nigerians at Home and Abroad

“Please don’t give up, my dear. Keep praying to God and keep believing in Him.
And to those in my DM saying they are tired of life abroad, hang in there. I wish I could help, but for now I’m still finding my feet. I pray the Lord sees you through.”
