In a TikTok post, Sunkanmi revealed she had a great job in Nigeria and had to save for years to move to the UK.

Sunkanmi fears she is starting late and is not getting any younger. She is also bothered about if she made the right decision. Sunkanmi wrote:

“I’d say I am scared. I’ll be 31 next month, and while I had a great job back home, it took years of saving and planning to even be here.

“I’m afraid to start from the beginning, sometimes I feel there’s no time and I’m not getting younger. I feel I started late but I have dreams and so much more I want to achieve. I’m scared of the future and praying I made the right decision.”
