Early Life
Sarah, who was born in London to Nigerian parents, was heavily involved in Nigerian church life during her early years before moving back to the UK in 2007 after being married. She started conducting youth ministry and singing in her early teens, which sparked her passion for worship and served as the groundwork for her subsequent musical career.
