"My American Dream-From an Orphan to an American success Story" I
have been described as an American Success story. Here is why. I
was born in California of an American mother and a Nigerian father.
My father saddened and disheartened by the death of my mother took
me to Nigeria when I was two years old to allow me to grow up with
paternal relatives. My grandmother was delighted to finally have a
chance to become acquainted with her grandson she never seen, and
delightedly agreed to take care of me while my father went to work
in the city. Tragedy once again struck shortly after my arrival to
Nigeria, however. It was on my father's way to his new position few
days later that he was killed in a truck accident. As a result of
his sudden death, he had had no chance to tell his relatives
particularly my grandmother anything about my mother's side of the
family, other than the simple fact that I had been born in Sonoma,
California. EVEN THIS FACT was kept from me growing up by my
Nigerian relatives including my grandmother until one day it
slipped out in conversation. "From that day on I knew I would come
back to the United States to see the place I was born."
