She said she understood she was not in Nigeria to enjoy life but to pursue her purpose.
“When I came, it was a humbling experience for me. I stayed in Ketu which is an area near Mile 12. A very rural area, not very developed. In the morning, it was the croak of the chicken that used to wake me up. But I was happy. I understood the assignment. I understood why I was there. I was there because I was on a journey to find out who I was and why God had assigned me to Nigeria.”
Joya was successful as she has achieved her goal and she is now the owner of a global business.
She advised people planning to make the big move from abroad to Nigeria to think about it properly.
