Nigerian music star GoodGirl LA, born Euphemia Ekumah, has offered a candid look into her personal struggles, revealing her deepest regret stems not from abandoning her university education, but from delaying her musical aspirations due to intense family pressure.
The acclaimed 'Early Momo' crooner emphasized that she has "never regretted not completing school," asserting she was initially "forced to write JAMB" (Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board). Her true regret, however, is that she didn't "absconded from home earlier" to chase her dreams, wishing she had skipped formal schooling entirely.
GoodGirl LA revealed the severe strain this choice put on her relationship with her father. Upon informing her family that she had no interest in furthering her education, her father "disowned me at some point" and "evicted her" from their home.
"I wish I never went to school. I wish I left home earlier. That’s my only regret," the singer stated in an interview with Hip TV. "I wish I never wrote JAMB... I wish I started chasing my dreams earlier." She explained that while she was initially unsure at age 16, by age 17 or 18, she gained "clarity" and ultimately "absconded from home."
The turbulent period concluded only after the singer started "making waves as a musician," leading to a reconciliation with her family. GoodGirl LA's story highlights the difficult choice many young creatives face between parental expectations and following a passionate but unconventional career path.
