Nigerian model and former bread seller Olajumoke Orisaguna, popularly known as Olajumoke Onibread, has once more captured public attention with a raw appeal for employment.
In a recent video, she said people once blamed her lack of education for her inability to find work. “Now I can speak English but jobs are still not coming in. Please I need job to be able to take care of my family,” she stated.
Orisaguna rose to fame in 2016 after accidentally photobombing a TY Bello photoshoot with British rapper Tinie Tempah while hawking Agege bread on the streets of Lagos.

The striking image went viral, launching modelling contracts, brand endorsements, magazine covers and international media coverage. Yet limited formal education left her vulnerable to exploitation by managers, financial losses and personal hardships that eventually forced her out of the spotlight for years.
In late 2024 she returned with support from journalist Azuka Ogujiuba and City 105.1 FM. She trained as a radio presenter, hosted the talk show Kilon Shele, significantly improved her spoken English, and resumed some schooling.
Despite these clear steps forward, recent videos show her still facing economic pressure and creating content that revisits her bread-selling past while seeking opportunities.
