A Nigerian graduate who sells food on a wheelbarrow, revealed she
makes more than salary earners as she recalled the challenges she faced
when she began her business.
Jossy Otu disclosed that she is married to a lawyer and further
stated that she decided to create a job for herself as she couldn’t get
one. According to her, she was ashamed the first day she started off the
business, but went on to make a profit of N150k in two months.
She wrote;
“Hello, this is me. I sell food on a wheelbarrow, yes I went to
school, married to a lawyer, but some will say y r u doing this? Some
even said u r beautiful to be selling food in a wheelbarrow? I laughed,
see when God want to bless you he takes you out of yourself comfort
zone, am not ashamed of my hustle, I got praises likewise criticised for
my hustle.The first time I took my wheelbarrow I almost went back, I was
ashamed @ first, what will my friends and family say chai, but then I
encouraged myself if I go broke now some of my friends and family will
desert me, so to hell with what people will say, that day I sold all my
food by 1 pm and mad a profit of 3k my capital being 5k chai I wan
craze, that devil is lier.To cut the long story short under 2 months I made 150k as profit, so
dear friends I have seen a lady that fried akara to build a house and
send her children to the university, that small business that u think
you can’t do u r too big for it may be yourself stepping stone to
greatness, don’t die of hunger o encouraged yourself, God bless you all
and give you ideas to make wealth.As Govt don’t want to give me work, I decided to create one for
myself. Never be ashamed for your hustle, no one will feed you when you
are broke. Be dirty to get your food instead of clean and hungry, Refuse
to be a beggar, wealth is a choice, poverty is a choice.
