Former Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) housemate Tolanibaj has described her decision to relocate to Nigeria as one of the most rewarding choices she has ever made.
In a heartfelt post on her X page, the reality star reflected on her move from the United States to Nigeria, revealing that while the decision initially seemed unclear, she followed her instincts and took the leap.
“Honestly, one of the best choices I ever made in life was relocating to Nigeria. I’m grateful to God for the timing of my move,” she wrote. “The thought of moving didn’t make complete sense to me at the time but it just felt right & I took the risk. It’s been six interesting years and I couldn’t be happier.”
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Tolanibaj relocated to Nigeria in December 2018 to pursue her dreams of making it in the entertainment industry.
Her bold move paid off when she participated in the BBNaija ‘Lockdown’ edition in 2020, a reality TV show that brought her national recognition. Although she didn’t win the competition, Tolanibaj became a prominent figure in Nigeria’s entertainment space.
In 2023, she returned to the BBNaija house for the ‘All Stars’ edition, though her journey was cut short after being evicted in the fifth week.
