Some months back, Jermaine Jackson, one of the elder brothers of the
late pop king of pop, Micheal Jackson, visited Lagos, Nigeria for a
recording with the singing duo, Psqaure.
He further met with members of the band including dance queen Kaffy, a happy mum of two and one of Nigeria’s best dancers.
In an interview with Tribune Newspaper, the dance Queen revealed that
when he met her, he didn’t stop starring at her as he marveled at her
striking resemblance to Micheal Jackson.
” ….when I met him, he said, “You have a look like my sister. You cut
the picture of my sister,” he said. Coming from a Jackson, I felt it
was a great honour. It is a great honour to be compared with him.
Everybody says I look like Michael. ”
Still in the interview, the high spirited dancer revealed that she always wakes up with pains everyday!
“I get tired sometimes. Like right now, my body aches. I wake up
everyday with body aches. I take painkillers sometimes. And there are
some pains that may require strong painkillers, especially those that
might put me out of work the next day. I fight them specially with
strong painkillers. But the regular muscle pains don’t just go, I always
have them.”
On growing up, she said “It was simply tough. On many occasions, we
didn’t have money to buy food. There was a time we didn’t have money to
pay my school fees. I dropped out of secondary school until my school
fees were paid. I also had to borrow textbooks from my neighbour’s
children . One thing that governed my life was the principle of no
excuse. As we no get money to enter school, me talk say school must
enter me. Those days, my parents had difficulties raising money for my
school fees, I went to my friends to read their notes. By the time they
had money to put me in school, I was already up to date with the
syllabus.”
