Why couple used Dangote cement sacks

Speaking exclusively with Legit.ng, Salvation, who has been a cement seller for five years, explained that he settled for the Dangote cement sacks outfit to define his identity.

In his words:

"My reason for using the cement sack bags for my pre-wedding pictures is just to define my identity.
"Some years back, I was running after a boss, assisting the boss in politics, yet I was never rewarded. I wasted 20 years of my life serving the boss without achieving anything, and at the end, when I decided to part ways with him, he tried every possible means to put me behind bars."

The businessman added:

"And when I see that I am not doing anything, I decided to venture into retail cement selling.
"And since about 5 years ago I started selling the cements, I have built a house. I have bought a car of my own and I am doing well for myself and my family.
"For the choice of Dangote cements sack attires, it's only Dangote cements that I have been selling because in my area, it's the only products that move market."

His fiancee's reaction to cement-themed outfit

Legit.ng asked Salvation how he was able to convince his wife to wear the Dangote cement sacks outfit, and he replied:

"My wife also knows that it's the cement business that is sustaining the family, and she is very supportive of the sale of the cement
"I don't need to convince my wife before she can agree to put on the cement sack attire because she knows the cement is our identity."
