You see that hustle you consider little which you make an honest living from ? Please do not stop it because someone somewhere told you you can make big money when you venture into cr1mes.🧏🏾‍♂️

Here's an Okada Rider who has just been arrested in Lagos by NDLEA for illicit drugs.

He excreted 100 wraps of Loud and Methamphetamine;worth N10.3billion.

Lol. The day I got my first car, I woke up with 13k. Bought a car in the evening. Didn't know how to drive, just bought a Lexus. I had to call an egbon to help me drive it away from the dealer.

My friend’s elder sister got a UK visa and convinced their parents to sell the family’s only land to fund her relocation. Their dad raised ₦15 million for her.

She promised that after few months abroad, she would start sending money home.

Her parents believed her.
They sold the land.

It’s been over a year now.

Anytime her dad calls because he needs money for his medication, she spends hours complaining about UK bills, taxes, and how hard life is.

Yesterday, she posted a TikTok video carrying luxury shopping bags with the caption:

“Soft life only.” 💔

In 2023, I was stranded in Oshodi while coming back from an interview. No cash, no money in the account. Phone at 4%. Rain was beating me black and blue with no hideout.

I posted: “Please, is anybody around Oshodi? My phone is about to go off and I’m stuck at Arena Junction. I need 2k for transport to get back home. I’ll pay back tomorrow. No jokes please.”

I tagged three of my closest friends, people that called me “sister” on birthdays.

First reply was laughing emojis. “LMAO, you don finally cast.”
Second reply: “Omo, trek am, exercise.”
Third person saw it and posted a meme two minutes later.

My phone died. I sat on a bench laid across the walkway, soaked, watching Lagos run past me, thinking this is how it ends for two thousand naira.

After a few minutes, a car parked close to where I was. The car windows rolled down and a voice asked, “Are you Ireoluwa?” I nodded. “One guy say make I carry you go Abule Egba. E don pay.”

I got in without thinking twice.
Halfway, my phone buzzed on the driver’s power bank. A DM from a stranger I never followed:
“Hey there, I saw your post. I really don’t know you but I know that feeling. Bolt is paid to your street. Get home safe. No need to pay back. Just help someone else one day when you can.”

I got home and checked his page. He’d been job hunting for three months and was probably broke. But he sent me a ride and some money. Now we are good friends even though we have still never met.

My friends with jobs posted me for cruise.
A stranger with nothing posted me for life.

That night I learned friendship doesn’t define family. Sometimes your lifeline is the person you’ve never met.

Last year , I spent close to one hour on the phone arguing / trying to explain to a client why a particular line of action was wrong and wouldn’t help him in the end.

At a stage i asked him, who is the lawyer in this conversation??

Guess what ??

He still did the wrong thing and lost a looooot of money.

I will never do it again!!!!

My landlord increased my rent by 100% last December.

I’ve been in this compound since 2021.

As a medical personnel, I’ve always helped him, his family and even their friends for free whenever they had any health concerns.

This morning, he messaged me about a medical issue.

I told him consultation is ₦10k.

He called, shocked, asking when I started charging.

I told him I need money to pay the new rent, so I can’t keep doing it for free.

He got angry and ended the call.

Abeg, did I do anything wrong?

I sprayed over ₦500,000 on stage because a Fuji musician called my name and hyped me up.

My colleague gave him my name and my company name from the crowd.

He called it out on the microphone and started singing my praise.

Something entered me immediately.

I was in full Agbada. I felt powerful. I felt seen.

I started transferring to the money changer. Collecting mint notes. Spraying without counting.

The musician kept going. I kept spraying.

When they moved to the next person I walked back to my seat feeling like a champion.

That was when I checked my phone.

Five transfers. ���100,000 each.

₦500,000.

My body calmed down immediately.

I left that party quietly.

Those musicians dey use juju ehn. Nothing wey anybody won tell me. 😞

I wanted to see a movie. Oya, let’s go together. Since I invited him out, I paid for the tickets. He just kept on exclaiming and asked if I wanted to use him for rituals.

Someone gave a testimony in my church about hitting a big contract at work and that same night, he was robbed in his house, he came back to church the next sunday, gave another testimony while emphasizing that there was a thief within the congregation.

I once sacrificed a fully paid opportunity to travel out just because my friend begged me not to leave her alone during a tough time(she had just lost both parents to an acc!dent and also had to drop out from school,she had no sibling but just me her friend)

I stayed. I showed up for her. I was there through everything.

Few months later… she relocated quietly without telling me 💀

Found out on Instagram.
