He revealed that although he was pretty brilliant, he was quiet in class, but Theresa noticed him, and they became friends.
At some point, Theresa virtually provided all his needs, including clothing and food, while they were in school.
How Theresa helped Lumba to travel to Germany
Lumba further revealed that Theresa made sure he got the chance to travel to Germany to make something out of his life.
He narrated that when they completed secondary school, Theresa visited him one day with a proposal that she had an opportunity for him to travel to Germany.
Even though he had wanted to go to the university, the financial situation at home could not allow him, so he accepted the proposal to travel. But he could not pay the cost of the travel (30,000 cedis at the time). Theresa thus had to pay half (15,000 cedis) while he raised the rest from his mother and sister's contributions.
"So all the music I was able to make in Germany and the fame I have would not have been possible if not for Theresa," he said.
Lumba thanked Theresa, who passed away in 2017, for all her contributions to his life.
