Nollywood actress turned politician, Tonto Dikeh, recently shared the advice she gave to a single mother who sought her guidance.
In a conversation posted on her Instagram, the single mom reached out to Tonto, asking how she coped after her split from her ex-husband, stating she was “a nobody aiming to be somebody soon.”
Tonto responded by clarifying that she was the one who chose to leave her marriage for the sake of herself and her child, emphasizing it was the best decision she ever made. She encouraged the woman, telling her she has the power to achieve her goals by committing to self-growth and investing in herself.
Tonto wrote:
“Good morning,
First and foremost, I was the one who chose to walk away from my marriage, not the other way around. I needed to escape a difficult situation, not just got my own sake, but for my child as well. Best decision I ever made.
Remember, you have the power to become the person you aspire to be, as long as you commit to your growth and invest in yourself. Prioritize the well-being of your children while seeking guidance and strength from God. Sometimes the end of the road is the beginning of your blessings, but please, if your marriage is worth it, fight for your home.
Take care”.
She concluded by offering advice to single mothers, urging them to draw strength from God while navigating their challenges.
In her words:
“Dear single mothers,
I don’t have a manual for these things.
I am neither a pro in this movement.
My biggest teacher has been LOVE.
I just let God do his thing, and his thing is enough for me.
Draw strength from God, most especially keep your family matters private”.
