After welcoming his daughter, Amaris Ighodaro, with his wife, Rima Tahini, Johnny Drille shared that he gained a deeper appreciation for his parents.
In a recent heartfelt conversation with Dose of Society, he expressed deep gratitude for the invaluable lessons they imparted about the significance of family. He spoke of the unwavering dedication they showed, highlighting the countless sacrifices they made to ensure a better life for him and his siblings. Their relentless efforts not only shaped his understanding of love and commitment but also left an indelible mark on his heart, underscoring the vital role family plays in one’s journey.

Johnny Drille stated that becoming a parent has provided him with a new perspective on the sacrifices his parents made, and he is thankful for their love and support.
He said, “The one rule I live by is family first. I would abandon anything I’m doing anywhere in the world if my family needs me, super importantly.”
“Family has always been my support system. Whenever I feel overwhelmed by the world around me, I find solace in returning to them. Their presence always brings me comfort, especially my parents. My biggest dream in life is to take care of them and help them experience the world.”
My parents didn’t have much. I remember it was really hard sometimes, and we wouldn’t have food to eat, but they always found a way to provide for us.
“They managed to make it enjoyable for us. At the time, it seemed fun, but now I realize they were trying to protect us from many things.”
“Now that I have a daughter, I truly understand what it means to nurture someone. At this moment, I appreciate my parents even more for everything they did for me and my siblings. Having a child transforms your life in the most incredible ways.”
“I believe this is often overlooked, but I’m grateful for my parents who nurtured me, especially in this chaotic world, helping me navigate various aspects of life.”
