Roadside Corn Seller's N2.5 Million Monthly Claim Sparks Online Buzz

An account from a Nigerian woman asserting a monthly income of N2.5 million from her roasted corn business has recently gained significant traction across social media platforms. This striking revelation emerges just weeks following a public statement by First Lady Remi Tinubu, who encouraged less privileged Nigerians to venture into small-scale, low-capital enterprises, citing examples such as the sale of fried akara, roadside roasted corn, or kuli kuli.

Consequently, the profitability of such informal businesses has become a hot topic of discussion and debate among Nigerians online. The woman, who operates a roadside corn stand, was reportedly engaged by another lady who inquired about her earnings from the venture. Her reply, which left many astonished, was a direct quote: 'Per month, I make like N2.5 million.' A video documenting this interaction has since been widely circulated, fueling further conversations about entrepreneurship and financial success in unexpected sectors.
