She’s 73. A Nigerian woman. A fighter in every sense of the word.


Rosalind Umar didn’t go looking for fame — but somehow, fame found her. And now the internet can’t get enough of her.


In her words: “I’m not the stereotypical woman that the average man want to marry. I box. I do martial arts. And I hate the word ‘submissive.’”


She speaks with unfiltered truth about life, about aging, about marriage, and about battling a degenerative disease that no amount of gym time, swimming, or exercise could stop — until surgery became her only option.


But even in pain, she laughs. She speaks. She lives fully.


This is not just a viral moment. It’s a woman reclaiming her story. And it’s one of the most powerful conversations I’ve had.
