Nigerian singer and Mavin Records signee, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has said that parents rarely chastise children who contribute financially to the family.
Rema made the statement during a recent chat with content creator Enzo.
During their conversation, Rema encouraged Enzo to get a tattoo like him. However, Enzo explained that his mother would disapprove, recalling how she gave him the silent treatment for days after he braided his hair.
Enzo: “My mum won’t let me get a tattoo. The time I did braids, she didn’t talk to me for days. It was bad.”
In response, Rema advised Enzo to focus on achieving financial success, suggesting that once he becomes a significant contributor to the family’s income, parental objections would lessen.
Rema: “Don’t worry, you just need to hustle a little bit more. Wait till you cash out big. Nigerian parents don’t advise breadwinners.”
The “Calm Down” crooner also previously disclosed that he became the main provider for his family after losing his father, having made his first million at the age of 17 — a sum he handed over entirely to his mother.
