Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian lady had opened a big grocery store in the United Kingdom.

She revealed in a video that when she told her mother about the idea, she kicked against it, saying it would ruin her reputation. The lady said she did not want the discouragement, so she blocked her on social media.

The lady added that she could not believe that a woman who also had support when she wanted to start her business would kick against her idea. According to the daughter, she is tired of someone controlling her life.
