My mum sold her economy class ticket to pay my school fees – Yemi Alade

The ‘Woman of Steel’ added that those days are behind them now and today they fly business class.

In an Instagram post, Yemi Alade shared a photo with her mother in London and wrote:

“London is more than just a city to my family, it marks a time in our lives (20 years ago) when mum had to sell her economy class ticket to pay my primary 6 school fees.

“Today we fly business class! Next stop #amsterdam,” she added.
