Reality TV star Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has revisited her childhood home in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, years after leaving the city.
The Big Brother Naija alum shared a clip from the visit on Instagram on Tuesday, describing the experience as emotional, filled with laughter and tears.
Tacha revealed that she lived in the compound from the age of six with her parents and sister, adding that the place holds a special part of her journey.
“I went back to Port Harcourt… to the house I lived in from when I was just six years old. This compound holds so many memories. It holds laughter, it holds tears. It’s where my mom, dad, my sister and I all lived… where I went to primary school, where everything began,” she wrote.
The 29-year-old admitted that returning to the house after several years made her emotional, especially because her late mother was no longer there to witness her growth and success.
“Standing here after all these years brought me to tears, not of sadness, but of deep reflection. I’m so sad my mommy isn’t here to witness this. I draw strength through you, Mummy. This visit reminded me of one simple truth: there’s a massive difference between where you start and where God is taking you,” she said.
The media personality also used the opportunity to encourage her followers, reminding them to have faith in God and in themselves.
“The plans God has for you are plans of good, not evil. And no matter what, the devil can never hate you more than God loves you,” she added.
Tacha, who gained fame after participating in the 2019 edition of Big Brother Naija (Pepper Dem), has often spoken about her late mother’s influence on her life.
