Afrobeats singer, Divine Ikubor, better known as Rema, has asserted that Nigerian parents don’t scold children who are the breadwinners of their families.
The ‘Calm Down’ crooner made this known during a recent conversation with content creator, Enzo.
It all started when the content creator turned down an advice from Rema to get a tattoo, saying his mother wouldn’t approve of it.
Enzo went on to recall that his mum once kept malice with him for days for braiding his hair.

He said, “My mum won’t let me get a tattoo. The time I did braids, she didn’t talk to me for days. It was bad.”
Responding, Rema urged him to work harder, claiming that parents don’t chastise children who are breadwinners.
“Don’t worry, you just need to hustle a little bit more. Wait till you cash out big. Nigerian parents don’t advise breadwinners.” he advised.
Rema had prior to this revealed he has been the breadwinner of his family since he was a teenager due to his father’s passing.
He also disclosed that he made his first million at 17 and gave the money to his mother.
