"Part of my dreams is to establish a church and do a lot of charity work"- Beverley Osu

"I attended Daughters of Divine Love Convent, Enugu State.  I thought I would be a reverend sister but I abandoned the vision when I dropped out in my fifth year. I finished my secondary education in a secular institution before moving to Babcock University.  I could not finish from Babcock because I had some personal issues. Again, I dropped and enrolled at the National Open University..It affected me in a very spiritual way. In as much as I know worldly things, I still fear God and have faith in Him.  The reason why I wanted to become a nun was because I was raised in a Catholic home.  I just felt it was the best thing for me to do at that time. I used to see myself as a messenger of God.  Even though I did not become a nun, I still remain faithful to God. Part of my dreams is to establish a church and do a lot of charity work"

“My Music Will Take Me Very Far, Not Showing Skin”-Chocolate CIty's Victoria Kimani

Chocolate City Kenyan artiste, Victoria Kimani opened up on what she thinks of nudity and how far you can go in the music industry whether or not you show your skin to Nigerian Tribune…   

Excerpts:

What are your views on nudity?

We were born naked, and then we realized that we were naked. In some villages around the world, nudity is normal; in a religious society, nudity of any kind is a sin. So, nudity is a personal preference and sometimes a Godly calling. I believe there’s nothing wrong with nudity. It’s the evil and sinful thoughts that people think that need to be controlled.

How far can you go with showing your skin as far as your music is concerned?

My music will take me very far, not showing skin. That can only take you so far.
I wear what I am comfortable in, depending on my surroundings. Fashion is another way of living and expressing art. As a girl with a curvy body, I like to celebrate my blessings while I’m still young enough and in shape enough to do so. That doesn’t mean showing skin.
Whether I’m dressed in a nun’s gown or in a bathing suit, someone will still oppose, and have an evil thought.
