A Nigerian man simply identified as Ochuko, has revealed that he will always go all out for his parents because they supported his career beyond imagination.
The photographer revealed that his dad gave him N5million for his studio and still bought the equipment that the young man needed.
Ochuko also revealed that his mother used her contacts to get him photography deals and for like three months, the highest paying clients are those that were referred by his parents.
He shared the story in response to a Twitter user who opined that it is not the responsibility of children to take care of their parents
Ochuko shared; “I finished Uni, my dad asked me what I wanted to do, I said I would look for jobs, but in the meantime, I’d like to set up a studio. He said okay, asked me what I’d need to get that done. I wrote a list, the next morning he transferred ₦5m to me & still bought every fxxking thing on my list.
If my father asks for the moon, flood go too wound una, cause I’d give him the fucking moon. My mother asked me if that’s what I wanted to do with my life, I said for now yes.
She sighed and said after all your education? I said yes. Every single job I got for about 3 months, was “Hi, your mum gave me your number, can you do…”
A sh*t ton of my highest paying clients, were people my parents sent my way. You now think that I won’t give them the world? Is it not madness?”
