'I sold my gold jewelry and skipped parties to fund my son’s tuition in Canada': Actress Biodun Okeowo "Omoborty" reveals.

Nollywood actress Biodun Okeowo, popularly known as Omoborty, has opened up about the sacrifices she made as a single mother to fund her son's education in Canada.

Actress Omoborty who is a single mother confirmed to all and sundry that her son recently bagged a bachelor degree from Concordia University in Edmonton, Canada.

The actress shared her emotional journey in a heartfelt Instagram post while celebrating her son's graduation, revealing that she endured years of financial pressure, sold some of her gold jewelry, and made several personal sacrifices to ensure he completed his studies abroad.

Accompanying the post with photos of herself and her son, Biodun Okeowo said many people often assume her life is easy because of what they see on social media, without understanding the weight of the responsibilities she carries behind the scenes.

According to her, she rarely attends social events or spends lavishly because most of her income is already committed to paying international tuition fees and other educational expenses.

The actress disclosed that there were moments when she had to sell some of her gold jewelry to meet school fee deadlines and times when she struggled emotionally while trying to balance the financial demands of raising a child abroad.

She recalled spending hours on video calls with her son, with both of them in tears as they navigated the challenges that came with pursuing higher education overseas.

Reflecting on the journey, Okeowo expressed gratitude to God for helping her overcome the difficulties and for seeing her son through to graduation.

She also used the opportunity to encourage single parents who are working tirelessly to provide for their children, urging them not to give up despite the challenges they may face.

The actress noted that sending a child abroad for education requires enormous commitment, sacrifice, and determination, adding that many of the struggles involved are often invisible to the public.

Celebrating the milestone, she described her son's graduation as the reward for years of prayers, sleepless nights, sacrifices, faith, and unwavering perseverance.

Her touching revelation has since resonated with many parents online, with numerous fans praising her dedication and commitment to securing a brighter future for her son.

She wrote; "I’m sharing this story to encourage every single parent out there doing it all alone. Don’t get tired. Don’t give up. Don’t let anybody make you feel your sacrifices are in vain.

You see this my hat? I wish it could be bigger than this because it cannot even contain how big my head is right now. 😀

Ha! The story is long o. Where do I even start from?

I don’t know if people notice that I don’t usually slay that much or attend too many parties. I can’t. Every kobo that comes into my account is already allocated. International student fees abroad is not moi moi money, so how exactly am I supposed to be slaying up and down all the time?

Should I talk about the days I had to sell some of my gold jewelry to pay school fees? The days I stared at bills and wondered how I was going to make everything work? The days my son and I would stay on video calls crying?

Jesus, I am grateful. I give You all the glory. It is not by my power or by my might.

Sometimes I even ask myself, “Biodun, who sent you?” Because taking a child abroad to study and paying the fees in full is not the kind of responsibility you fund by borrowing here and there or asking people to contribute. People look at you and think, “If she can send her child abroad, then she must be very comfortable.”

The funny part is that some people look at you and assume you have money to throw around. They see social media and think everything is easy. Some will ask for help, and when you do the little you can, they are disappointed because they believe you have more than you gave.

What they don’t know is that responsibilities don’t post themselves online.

So yes, please permit me to flood your timeline a little. This celebration was paid for with prayers, sacrifices, faith, tears, sleepless nights, and the grace of God.

Seeing my son graduate makes every single sacrifice worth it.

Above all. Olu Orun momore o! Ese Alagbawi eda. 🙏🙏🙏."
