From the ridiculous to the sublime, there is but one step, hence the story of Jumoke Osaguna. She became not only a Nigerian discourse but a global discourse. She has granted interviews with global media outlets; already, Google has listed her name as one of the most sort for in their search engine. Jumoke’s story is beyond what reason can comprehend because by all standard, nothing about her created the channel for her suddenly drift to global recognition: she is not well educated, she could hardly speak English, and she was just a poor street bread hawker. But God has used Jumoke’s case to make a statement to those who will grab it.
Already, Jumoke is a millionaire. Big multi-national industries are queuing to give her endorsements, Payporte announced last week that she will be in their global signatures; yesterday, Stanbic IBTC announced her as the new face of the bank. Lines are falling in places for her, and it seems more is yet to come as days unfold.
