According to him, people need to stop thinking big and try starting something small.

He wrote:



“People are always complaining that things are not working in Nigeria. The woman selling food by my house said she makes 5k profit a day. That’s 150k a month. My mason makes 90k a month at 3k daily. How much is a banker’s salary? Nah pride be our problem.

“This guy I met in Nasarawa State, he waters pigs that are transported to the south of the country. He charges 200 Naira per vehicle. He does about 50 Vehicles a day. His profit is about 7k a day. He can make about N210,000 a month.

“Stop thinking too big!! Start something small and do it well!! Most people on the streets make more money than people on twitter. They don’t wait on no one!!”
