BBNaija’s Kess and sibling usher parents into new year with car, house gift

Big Brother Naija 2022 ex-contestant, Kess has started the new year by showering his dad and mum with astounding gifts.

The reality TV star and his brother jointly bought a new car and acquired a house in celebration of their mother’s birthday. He revealed that the car was for her while the house belongs to their parents.

Kess made this known in a post on his Instagram page and said it was a lifelong dream for them to surprise her with the properties.

He recounted the challenges they battled while growing up as a family of seven were all shared to other family members to live with.

According to the BBNaija star, he was in Senior Secondary 3 when they encountered a downturn in their lives.

Kess shared photos, videos on his Instagram page and gave thanks to God for his ‘grace upon our lives.

He wrote; “This has been a lifelong dream for me and my brother. We finally were able to present this car as a birthday gift to my mummy and this beautiful home to my parents. This is very special to us because of this very short story.

2010 was such a crazy year for us, I was in SS3 preparing for SSCE when the whole world came crashing down on us, pops suddenly became very sick, he could no longer shoulder his responsibilities hence we lost our home and lost everything we had. A family of seven automatically became squatters, each shared to live with family and friends.

But today, I am grateful to God almighty for his Grace upon our lives. He came through for us. From being homeless to being house owners…. I don’t know who needs to hear this, THINGS MAY BE TOUGH RIGHT NOW, BUT GOD WILL COME THROUGH FOR YOU IN THIS NEW YEAR.

Happy new year guys.”
