Speaking about one of the many things the pepper seller had done for her, she wrote:

"He is a pepper vendor in Oye and ever since I have known him, he has been good to me. Days that I will go to his shop lamenting that I don’t have money, days that I will go and tell him that I don’t have money and I want pepper, he will give me pepper, onions and also ask if I have anything to cook at home. The days that he will still show up for his business even when he is down."

She wrote further in the TikTok video, speaking about her visit to his shop and the question he asked her, which made her eventually return with her sign-out shirt.

Her statement:

"A lot of students too have their own part of what ALIYU has done for them. I went to his shop on Saturday to get pepper and he said he has not been seeing my face, asking what happened. I explained to him that I was writing my final exams and told him I was finally done. He then asked why I did not bring my shirt for him to sign. I promised him I would do that on Sunday, and I did. He was so happy to see me fulfil my promise, just as if I was his daughter."

Legit.ng contacted the graduate of the Federal University of Oye Ekiti (FUOYE) for more input on her story. She shared her name and the sole reason she made the post about the pepper seller on her social media page.

Nancy also mentioned how long she has been receiving help from the individual.

Her statement:

"Hi, I am Nancy by name. I felt like that is the only medium I can use to appreciate him for what he has done for me all this while. I gained admission to FUOYE in 2023 and got to know Aliyu through a friend of mine in the 2024/2025 session. Within these few years that I have known him, he has been good to me. As I said earlier in my caption, there are days that I will go to his place and rant. The fact that he will listen to every bit of it means a lot to me. I can’t count everything he has done, but he has been good."

Nancy spoke further, explaining how she felt when he asked her to bring her sign-out shirt for him to sign.

"I wasn’t happy about it at first because I should have done it earlier instead of him telling me, but at first I didn’t know how to go about it. So when I told him and he said I should have brought it, I was so glad to even see him in that state of happiness."

She spoke about the reaction to her video and what she wants people to know about Aliyu, the pepper seller.

"Yes, I was surprised and glad. Firstly, I know Aliyu is a good man. I have had countless interactions with people, and they will be like, 'Aliyu is my customer, and he is good.' But to get that same statement from about 500 people too, I couldn’t even explain how happy I was about it."
"Aliyu is a hardworking pepper vendor. I can’t remember a day that he would say he wanted to go to the farm and, at the same time, still had to be in his shop. He is trustworthy, and the impact he has on students is remarkable. He is understanding, he seems to relate to all that we are going through, he is caring and observant, and he understands our reactions.
