With the plethora of “Slay Queens”, and ladies who seemingly always have their makeup on fleek rocking different designer outfits and weaves regularly, the pressure to fit in with this crowd can get really intense – especially if you are in the public eye.

Kudos to Nollywood actress, ChizzyAlichi, who refused to give in to this pressure.

In a moving Instagram post, Chizzy revealed how she had been ridiculed for not wearing the latest clothes and Brazilian hair, but unknown to her critics, she was saving a ton of money to build her parents a house in the village:

People have always refer to me as “mgbeke” (local girl) that I dont know fashion or carry designer bags/shoes/clothes That I don’t wear expensive hair. Well my darlings I do know and want to wear those things but I have been saving for this building right here. I can’t remember d last time my family travelled for Xmas because their is no house to stay. My mother falls sick whenever she goes for August meeting and comes back. My father wanted to sell half of our compound to fix d leaking roof, buy ceiling and also patch the broken wall but I told him No. ( PAPA I WILL BUILD HOUSE FOR YOU) after saving for sometime, I wanted to use the money to buy myself another car (A bigger car) but I said to myself, what’s d need for d car when we don’t have roof over our head in d village moreover the car I have is still in good condition and serves me well, I can always buy another one later. Today am grateful to Almight God that it came to pass. My parents are d happiest ppl on earth. 4 masters bedroom, extra 2 toilets, kitchen, dinning and palour. God is the Greatest.
