According to Nollywood actress Aisha Lawal, the COVID-19 pandemic marked a new change in her life.
The Yoruba actress disclosed in an interview with her coworker Biola Bayo that she earned ten million naira in a week or two during COVID-19 in 2020.
“Covid was the turning point in my life. I made ten million naira in a week or two”.
In the interview, Aisha had addressed claims of receiving a Venza from MC Oluomo. Refreshing your memory, a man had alleged that the former NURTW chairman had collected his Venza car and had gifted the actress.
Speaking on it, Aisha debunked the report and told her haters to respect her name. Noting how she has suffered, Lawal added that she drives a GX 460 and has many shops.
“One man, I wonder if it was set up or if he smoked weed, sat and set the camera in front of him and said MC Oluomo collected Venza from him and gave it to me. I have regard for MC Oluomo because he has done so well for people I know. I didn’t collect any car. Why will I die mysteriously when I didn’t eat mysteriously?
I didn’t watch the video in detail, but then I heard the part where he said, “Aisha Lawal, I am the owner of the blue Venza with you.”

Common, put some respect on my name, I have suffered in the past, I didn’t even drive a Venza, I drive a GX 460, and my shop is like the 4/5th building”.
Touching on her childhood, Aisha said she started driving at age 16. She recounted how she would take the night bus to Oshodi at Abba, wearing nose masks to prevent herself from staying in hotels.
“I started driving at age 16. I would take the night bus to Oshodi at Abba, wearing my nose mask and face cap. They saw me then, but they didn’t say anything. I usually take the night bus because I don’t want to pay for a hotel.
I am an actress, and people know me. I would enter vehicles transporting fowls from Abba to Ibadan. I stayed in Ijebu Ode before I started going to China”.
In addition, the talented actress said her father wanted her to study Theatre Arts and believed actresses always have multiple kids from different men and lack stable marriages.
“My dad actually wanted me to study Theatre Arts, but my mum never wanted it. My dad didn’t know that I started acting till he died, but I didn’t tell him because he taught actress give births outside wedlock, and don’t have stable marriage”.
She added, “Nobody likes anybody on social media, that’s what I noticed.
I have enjoyed and suffered life like a ball. My grandma would say, “May your days be rough, because one with a smooth life wouldn’t enjoy a long life.”
