"Alexa, turn up the volume!"
Rhoda Adesilu reacted:
"So I've been singing this song the wrong way all these years??? Thank you Georgia Akuwudike for the correct lyrics and interpretation of that song. So it's "Ogoziri ma gozi, otiyere jara" after all, and not "ongozi maragozi, ochinere naya" as I've been singing for the past 18 years or more of my life.
Congratulations on your great achievement and may more extras continue to fall in place for you."

"A very big Congratulations Georgia and also claim this huge testimony."
Liz Timoney said:
"This gave me goosebumps (hope that’s not just a UK phrase! ) Great story … congrats. May God continue to pour blessings on you."
Lady who left her country with only two bags gets mining job in Australia
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a lady had celebrated getting a new job in Australia after leaving her country with only two bags.
The 27-year-old admitted that she nursed fears of finding her feet in Australia because of not having any family there.
But her determination eventually paid as Naledi would later discover that she left South Africa with an extra thing called courage.
In her words:
"My fears were strong. Heading to a foreign continent, where I have no family. I kept telling myself, "I am still young, what if I fail, what if I am not good enough."...... Coming from the most disadvantaged province (Limpopo) in South Africa, "how will I compete in the world."
