Reactions trail the comeback of the grass-to-grace sensation, Jumoke Oniburedi who hit the spotlight in 2016 for photo-bombing an international shoot.
Renowned Nigerian photographer TY Bello was photographing UK popstar Tinie Tempah in the streets of Lagos when Jumoke Orisaguna who hawks bread at that time, walked and was captured in the scene.
It was when the picture came out and Jumoke’s perfect fit into the photograph became the talk on social media that her fortunes changed for good.
However, after trending for a couple of years, no one heard of her again until recently when the search began and was rediscovered by the initiative, Cardinal Foundation in partnership with City FM 105.1, Radisson Blu, and Media Room Hub.
Her reappearance in the social limelight at “The Comeback of Olajumoke (Oni Buredi) Press Conference” shows the model narrating the story after her then breakthrough.
According to her, she was exploited by her manager then due to her illiteracy, making her go back to point zero. Moving forward, Jumoke expresses the decision to go back to school and become a presenter.
Here are the reactions that trailed her reappearance:
