Dorathy Bachor, a former Big Brother Naija ‘Lockdown’ contestant, is pleased after successfully obtaining a Canada visa.
The reality star turned businesswoman shared the joyful news on her Instagram story and reflected on her journey to this point.
Dorathy highlighted her difficulties in obtaining a visa in 2019 and 2020 in a series of postings.
She admitted to quitting her work out of irritation after being demoted for what she thought was a stupid reason.
This was one of the most trying moments in her life, leaving her unsure about her future and the road she should choose.
Dorathy, determined to make a good difference, decided to apply for school in Canada, despite not knowing where the necessary cash would come from.
Undaunted, she bought the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) form and started studying for the exam.
Her dreams were derailed when she was cast as a competitor on Big Brother Naija, forcing her to postpone her educational goals.
Dorathy never forgot her desire of studying abroad, despite this diversion.
Dorathy recalled an exciting occasion when a sister’s friend who had successfully secured a passport from the Canadian consulate became a source of encouragement for her.
She hung a little piece of the nylon that came with the passport by her window every day, drawing strength from it and seeing her own triumph.
Although she had planned to take her examinations in 2020, her involvement in the reality program changed her plans.
