Why I Abandoned Law To Perform Music – Maka

1 Min Read

It is always better to earn money doing what you enjoy, rather than what you feel compelled to do.

In an interview with Tribune, Afro-soul singer, Nwamaka Sam-Ejehu aka Maka says she has abandoned her law qualification to pursue her interest in music.

She said: I studied Law at the University of Lagos. I have always wanted to be a lawyer. I’m very grateful that I am one. I graduated with a second class lower division in 2013. I was called to the bar in 2014, but I have left all that for music. Music came as career opportunity during my undergraduate days. It actually distracted me because I was always getting gigs. I started as a backup singer for Black Magic, Jessy Jagz, Dipo and some other artistes both in the studio and on stage. I studied law because I believe it could come in handy during my music career. So, I don’t regret studying the law and doing music.
