Lady shares grass-to-grace story, says she's no longer a help
Meanwhile, Legit.ng gathered the report of a young lady who shared the inspiring story of how she stopped being a house help and decided to invest in personal development.
According to the lady named Peace John, she was earning less than N3000 salary before she called it quits to become her own boss.
Peace said she had to leave the house help work because, at some points, she missed one of her examination papers in school.
She wrote:
"3 years ago I stopped being a house help. With less than N3,000 (approximately $6 at that time) a month as salary. To add to this misery, it was not even the salary that was my problem, but the hard labour that followed. I did it so that I could afford to pay for my fees back in college, but unfortunately I ended up missing some papers in my final exams because my college fees was not complete, I was really pained.
