“I sell market in Oshodi under bridge, I’m from Ikorodu. I’m not a trenches babe. There’s a time I was dating a boy in Ikorodu, he left me to wed another woman,” she narrated.
“I gave him money, I paid his school fees. I was warned but I didn’t tell all my friends. I was heartbroken and moved on, and I came on to Oshodi to sell goods.”
