Foils for the takeaway..better arrangement of the surroundings.
A small showcase..just the normal basics. O.p couldnt even notice she wasnt a regular market woman.
these dont cost much but it improves value and attracts customers..
After all the packaging and she decides to sell N20 akara for N50, you guys would say her akara is too expensive.

I salute her courage. While her mates squeez their bum into skin tight leggings, prancing about allen avenue, starring into space, while waiting for an unknown fella to squeez 5 thousand naira into their palms for an all night rendevous. She choose to help herself with this small buisness to make ends meet. That's a wife material there!

She is a graduate of accountancy from the
University of Abuja, the Vice President of the
National Association of Anambra Students and
she sells akara in Abuja. She's done this business
for 31 days, waiting for her national youth service
and has decided selling akara is what she wants
to do. She plans to continue during her service
year and beyond. She's very cheerful and friendly.
The first time I bought akara from her was a day
after valentines day. She asked how my val was
and I was taken aback because that's not a
question the usual akara seller asks. I decided to
talk with her today and find out why she does
this business. I'm glad I did and I am inspired.
Unemployment is relative after all.
i love her spirit. i'm using my own time to learn domestic skills with my savings bc my dept missed batch A. i'm not a bigot but i love the i can do spirit of igbo ladies

Many Nigerians are simply foolish and third citizen in their own country ...

Some people will pity the girl instead of pitying themselves ....

As an accountant, she is a better Akara seller than others who ain't graduate.....

Verily she will meet somebody who will take her away from Akara to possibly corporate world.

Education is just very important, it exposed you to life and define your philosophy but unless you are ready to use what you learned to provide solution to problems, you won't go far even with PhD.

ThanGod for her, she seem limitless.

People should really discover who they are!
To the myopic, it may be mere akara and very
abominable for a "graduate" to be selling akara .
Graduate!
1st! Sit and ask yourself why you studied that
course you studied that made you a graduate?
Be cause u really wanted to or because that was
what your jamb score could fetch u?
Many who are educated or called graduates are
confused souls who cannot even defend their
results and have also refused to face reality!
1st it shows this young woman has a strong
passion for cooking and this akara can be
enhanced and lots of ideas out in to make it
bigger and better.
What's the difference between the pizza we
scramble for and this akara?
If she was making pizza, cake or shawarma
would u call her a waste?
This is an example of someone living a life of
purpose and in few years I bet you she will
employ the same graduates in the same business
of making bean balls.
By then lots of people will start going into akara
business
The whites may even come to learn it from her!

Another jumoke
Op is trying to impose on us another jumoke. The first woman was about bread. Op figured that akara and bread works hand in hand, so he brought us his own version of jumoke. In timaya's voice *I refuse to concur *

Chim ooo! Akara kwa....tufiakwa!!

Stop that rubbish!

There is an entrepreneur. She is into food processing and vending, a key value chain activity that's even more valuable than primary production.

I bet you, she knows where her bread is buttered. While you are busy tufiaring, she's footing her bills, supporting siblings and generally smiling to the bank

What plays out abroad as normal is often seen in Nigeria as absurd! Most Nigerians who come abroad although graduates, usually start off on a humble note before hooking up on something more decent; that is, if they are lucky. The Nigerian population of 'graduates' who ordinarily ought to influence elections by swinging the outcome to their favour, are still caught up in the quagmire of tribal politics; hence we get the kind of leadership that we impose upon ourselves - what a pity. Meanwhile may God bless the girl's sincere hustles to greater hights...

Ameedan:
let me share something with u guys.
I graduated from the same University, same dept in 2011.After graduation, I realised that it will take the grace of God to get a job easily because of the kind of background I came from.
immediately after graduation, I went back to the village.while in the village, I discovered that people are suffering of where to charge their phone. So I set up a charging point with the little money I was able to borrow from a friend I graduated with.
After three months I paid back the money I borrowed.
while in service, I kept a guy to help manage the biz and the guy was paying 1k per day. immediately after my service, I constructed a shop and I started selling phone accessories and recharge cards.
I got married from that biz and I just started fixing the ceilling of a four bedroom flat I constructed last year.
nice bro...may God bless ur hustle...one day I will get dere

According to the op, she is currently waiting 4 NYSC, so she chooses 2 engage in a business that will fetch her some money, so many youths like me are also awaiting NYSC but we spend the time sleeping,frolicking,messing around with trivial things. I'm really inspired,na make I go find popcorn machine dey go bus stop sure pass cheesy

Nonsense waste of education. Why did she go to school in the first place? She could have been frying Akara since 4 years ago and saved the money spent on school and someone more deserving would have gotten the admission. Extreme poverty mentality. This is why Jamb cut off marks must be made higher. Fewer people need to go to school. We don't want graduates whose sole contribution to GDP is frying Akara.

The problem with you guys is that you assume that education ends up in wearing starched clothes and carrying folders around

Education is making thing out if your life not making things out of your employer life
