    Sam and his beautiful wife, Abigail, have been working hand in hand to sell puff puff in Iyana-Ipaja area of Lagos state to fend for their family.
    The 30-year-old man explained that he had to quit his salary-paying job to focus on the business, and even though there have been challenges, he does not regret that decision.
    "I hear people say I sell pure water, these are my houses, but I didn't believe them. Today, I have built my house to lintel level from money I made doing this business," an excited Sam told Legit tv.

There is nothing wrong with selling food on the street. He should definitely do some improvements to his stall. For instance he can get branded umbrellas for each of his stalls. Everyone working can wear branded t-shirts as well. He should also use the name "Sam's Puff Puff", then eventually trademark the name as soon as he can afford to.

      It's part of the colonial mentally that thinks that a person has to be in a so-called learned "white collar" profession to be respected in the community. I'm referring to being something such as a barrister, solicitor, doctor, engineer, lecturer or senior manager etc. etc. This "respect" aspect is endemic in southern/ Eastern Nigerian life.
      Entrepenurship does exist in Eastern Nigerian culture through the traditional Igbo Apprenticeship system (please Google), but that is associated with blue collar professions such as sales of industrial and consumer items via wholesale markets. People who work in sectors via the Apprenticeship system (like anywhere else in the world) in general have not attained college or university level education. Therefore, although these individuals are often the engine room of economic generation and wealth creation in their communities, they are often looked down upon in terms of their educational attainment. Being respected within southern Nigerian local familial communities is a huge deal. The questions are what have you achieved in life, ie education, family life, wealth etc. Most importantly what have you put back into your local familial community to build it. There is a great deal of vested interest in this pathway through life and IMHO rightly so.
      The lack of support for people getting into Entrepenurial activities is not only specific to a powerhouse of growth such as Nigeria. This is an issue for communities for example in the UK, where although the government acknowledges that it's small and medium sized businesses that create most of the wealth and jobs, there is not enough within the culture and education system to encourage entrepreneurship. The UK also has an unhealthy bias towards pushing people through the University system and, more often than not, these youngsters find themselves unemployed or working in some of the retail or fast food giants as shop assistants.
      However, if you're living in a semi-failed governmental state (e.g. Nigeria) a reliance on uncertain a public sector budgtes and explatitive private sector employer salaries, people likely find they are unable to cover living costs. People will be forced to find a "side hustle" to make ends meet (hence the reference to selling body and theft). In this case this inspirational young fellow and his wife reverted to his inherent gifts and skills to move forward.

      We need to get out of the mindset that smart only refers to people who are academics or 'book smart'. There are different levels to being smart or intelligent. Being creative and skilled, taking an idea and making a masterpiece is at the very peak/apex of being smart.

So it may appear as if some of the men may not be as hard working but it is that they no longer have to do certain things manually like in the past.

A professional can quit his office based job, go and open up a small coffee kiosk and before you know it they are earning a lot. Some have gone on to be millionaire cleaners, with no shame. We blacks need to deal with that pride issue.

When you humble yourself you'll find opportunities and success in the unlikeliest places, Nigeria is abundant with them but people feel like its below them.
