On Tuesday, April 19, 2016, bread hawker turned model, Olajumoke, visited Liberty Bakery where she once called home to give back to bread hawkers who struggle to make a livelihood from hawking bread.
She gave 40 bread hawkers N5,000 each from a philanthropist. Her levels have change! See photos...
Her words: My life has changed. I am not the same person I used to be.
In the sense that things are better for me and my family. I am now
working, we have a beautiful place to call home. I am really enjoying
it. It is such a beautiful place. I can’t imagine myself having such a
lovely place as my home. I can’t be more grateful.
How will you describe the transition from village to bakery and now to a three bedroom flat?
There are a lot of differences in it. I was sleeping on the floor at the bakery. At home in Osun state, I shared a room with a lot of people. I now have a three bedroom flat. I have a room to myself, my children also have theirs. I have seen a lot of changes.

Will you say you have changed?
I am still the same Jumoke people know. The same Jumoke people knew in Osun state is the same as the Jumoke speaking with you right now, but the story of my life has changed. My lifestyle has changed. I am looking healthier, living healthier, I have more things to be thankful for. I have a lot of clothes, not just clothes but fashionable ones. I eat better things. People have been helping us from right, left and centre.
