Nigerian singer Rema has disclosed that he made his first one million naira at the age of 17.
The musician made the statement in a recent interview with Z100 New York.
He said he gave all the money to his mother because she needed the money.

Rema said:
“The person who I knew needed it more was my mum. So, I handed everything I made to her. I know it was cool to drive around the city as a 17-year-old in a cool whip. But I can’t drive a cool whip when my mum didn’t have a car or my mum has to borrow my keys. You know, I had to put her on first.”
The 24-year-old singer said his biggest achievement is being able to provide for his family and create opportunities for others.
He stated that his proudest moment was when fans sang his song ‘Calm Down’ word-for-word during his performance in Australia last year.
