Born in England and was taken home to study and learn the cultures of the land, Ibitola resented her mum for that, however, her Nigerian parents knew exactly what they wanted for her. Her mum continued to send her novels and books to keep busy. Today that simple mum gesture has become instrument to an Internationally acclaimed, award winning ace author .
