The 57-year-old in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo said she had to sacrifice her career for her children who relocated abroad for a better education.

However, on her second visit to the kids, just a month after relocating, Sola Sobowale said she realised that the motherly touch was missing and that was when she took the decision to stay with them. She said in parts:

“Today strike tomorrow strike course of three years end to six years. So let my children leave Nigeria. That was why I moved my children out of Nigeria to London. I took them to England, I put them in school, I came back to Nigeria I was monitoring them. A Month after I went back to see them and they weren’t the kids that I took.”

“That motherly touch was not there. and I said ah to your tent oh Israel I am here with my children. Forget stardom. That was why I left Nigeria, to make them somebody in life and to God be the glory they are sucessful now all of them are working and they said: “mummy thank You for sacrificing now its time to go back to what you do best,”
