Popular Nigerian celebrity photographer, T.Y Bello, has taken to
his Instagram page and shared videos of President Buhari’s personal
photographer, Bayo Omoboriowo, as she shared stories of how she hawked
sachet water at a market in Mushin, just to make some money for his
family.
“Yes I hawked pure water in Mushin, Ojuwoye market. They were
calling me Bayo pure water because i shout Buy your pure water and so
they called me Bayo pure water. This was when I was still in primary
school. At a point I was ashamed because I would see my schoolmates and
their parents driving them home after school,” he said in the interview.

BAYO- PURE WATER! It’s amazing to look back and be able to laugh at our

us and we are no longer ashamed to share the challenges that were
difficult .. painful or even embarrassing . Those stories don’t define
us but we proudly own them. They’re all important in building our
identity… so we’re thankful for them.”
