EbonyLife TV boss Mo Abudu says she took up a waiter job to support her family after her father died. The media mogul made the revelation while in a chat with Chude Jideonwo.
Abudu revealed that her status as the eldest daughter made her take up a job at a restaurant in order to make ends meet.
“I was born in England into a working-class family. I lost my father when I was 11. So, very early on, I’ve had to be strong. I worked all kinds of jobs. Worked as a waiter because my mom was left with not very much. I was the first daughter, it was left for me to step up.”
