Lizzy Anjorin: The people who said I stole gold in the market wanted to extort money from me

You’ve seen and read all the scandals about actor and businesswoman, Lizzy Anjorin. You’ve witnessed the drama with fellow actors. You’ve reached your conclusions about her. Well, get ready to be shocked. The Lizzy Anjorin you will meet in this interview is a revelation. To understand why she fought as hard as she did when she was falsely accused of stealing gold worth less than N100,000 in Lagos Island, and why she fights so hard generally, you need to understand where she is coming from. We talk about: ● Having a child when she was barely a teenager, and then the family of the man rejected her because she was too ‘gutter’. ● Washing the feet of market-goers in the slums with her mother at the age of 5, while being raised in an uncompleted building. ● Losing her mother, losing her foster mother, losing her mother and then losing the father of her child. And how she clawed her way from the very bottom to the front of society. Everything she has today she had to fight for. So she doesn’t back down from a fight. “The fear of poverty makes me to be who I am today,” she says.
