“To my surprise, she turned it down saying 2 million naira was too small compared to how much I had made. I was a bit worried coz this girl is from a humble background, and I never imagined her to be like that.
“I explained the situation to Olamide and he advised me to leave the girl, he also instructed me to send the 2 million Naira to my mom.
“I’m glad I did coz my mom was able to make good use of the money and open a big provision store. My mom doesn’t call me for financial issues anymore coz she’s doing just fine”.
