EBA noted that he weighed the impact the coronavirus pandemic has made on the lives of billions of people around the globe before composing the song.

“It’s a trying time in the lives of people all around the world, but the Bible (Romans 8:37) says that ‘in all these things, we are more than conquerors,’” he said.

For him, “It gives hope, and hope makes room for persistency. Persistency makes you fight on and not give up before your breakthrough finally comes.”

He said that it took him so long to release his first single of the year because he didn’t want to compromise quality production.

She stressed that after several years of engagement and entrepreneurship, she had always believed that the truth must lead, and the only way to speak to people’s conscience is to be truthful to them.

Making reference to her journey, Ms Ibrahim noted that she made use of op­portunities that came her way and prepared herself adequately for it all the time.

Against this backdrop, she urged young ladies to be ready and capable of deliver­ing when they are called upon.

The philanthropist said that even though she came from a priv­ileged home, she was intentional about her life and journey to succeed in life on her own.

She further stressed that “you have to be intentional to have a goal, you have to be intentional to be passionate about the goal and be determined to achieve it to its full success.”

“You’ve got to be intentional not to tow the lane that is not good; if I had led a wayward life the one you see on Tiktok or snap chat, I wouldn’t have been here speaking to you,” she added.

She concluded that achieving success does not happen in a vac­uum and that a lot of work must go into it, “It is about intentional­ity, I’m where I am because I have always been intentional.”
