Ghanaian actress cum entrepreneur, Salma Mumuni, has recounted how she had to struggle growing up, just in order to ‘make it’ in life.
The actress speaking to Abeiku Santana on his ATUU show recounted how she used to hawk iced water and small chops to support her single mother who was also a maid.
Salma Mumin during the interview disclosed that as a result of her parents failed marriage, life took her through some hardships.
She said her mother had to work as a house help in order to take care of her needs at that time.
“I was very young when my parents divorced and my mother singlehandedly took care of us. We went through a lot just to survive. At a point in time, there was no interest and nobody to take care of me. My mother was a house help living with her employers in Bolgatanga and because there was nowhere to stay, I had to live with her until I came down to Accra. Her madam was a caterer so I was given small chops to sell in school every day. Also, when I return from school each day, I sell pure water on the streets just to make some little money,” she stated.
