There was a time I opened jean trouser bale and found 20 euros inside one of the pockets. I ran and took the money to hubby. We drove to Wuse zone 4 immediately, changed the money and headed straight to do dorime. It was about 10k.

After sometime again, we found 50 euros. We changed it and got like 30k.

After these two events, we became keenly interested in searching jean trouser pocket. Sometimes, hubby will joking tell me let’s open a trouser bale and search.????????????????

One very good day like that, I saw 50,000 KRW inside one of the trousers. I opened my eyes wide to look at it. Shey na eye dey pain me?

Just then, it started making sense. Pastor even prophesied about huge money that week.

I called hubby who was still at work to leave whatever he’s doing and drive down to the shop as we’re about going to buy a house in Asokoro from here.

I told him I found 50k inside jean trouser.

He screamed. You mean 50k euros? Close shop now now. Wait for me downstairs. I’m coming. Don’t let anyone suspect you have such amount ooh. He cut before I could tell him it’s not euro ooh. 

He came and picked me. He told me this money you found is about 26m ooh. I don calculate am. We both laughed. 

We even parked at a point, came down from the car, gave each other high five, selected few houses along the road and practiced how we’ll go and price them, went back into the car and drove off again.

I called a food vendor I know to barbecue the biggest chicken she has in her fridge for me. Make it peppery I said. Buy juice for me as well. I’m a very busy woman now. I’ll pickup later.

E choke.

We sat inside the car and those bureau de change people rushed us.

We told them to wait. Just relax. We’re looking for who has millions. You get millions? We asked them.

We later agreed on exchange rate. 520 for 1 euro. Omooooo.

They now said we should bring out the money let them at least see it.

I now in a bugalized way brought out the 50k. The man asked me “wey the money?

I asked him, na paper you hold?

Man: Wayin be this? Waving the money in the air.

Hubby: Grabs the money from him. Oga give me before you tear our treasure. Then looks at it. Baby, this is not euro ooh. We no look an well. Which one is KRW?

Money changer: Na Korean money be this. We no dey change am again. The money dey useless. 

Photooooo!

He continued Na only one man dey change this money now but e dey Maraba. This one fit be like 7,500 if it still reach self.

????????‍♀️????????‍♀️????????‍♀️

Hubby and I remembering all our plans.

The neighborhood was being robbed.While everyone was struggling to lock their door, I ran to open my door. I listened with rapt attention as they went from house to house. 

When the robbers came to knock on my door, they were surprise to see it left open. They wanted to turn back and move the next house but I called them back and told them I was inside. 

They came into the house and put on their phone torch. They were four in number with masks on their faces. "Oga no light for here," One of them asked. "For two months I haven't Paid NEPA bill"I replied

They all looked at themselves before turning back to me. " Oya go bring your money no waste our time "one of them ordered. I took them to my room and what they saw made them hopeless. 

" You sure say na your room be this abi na store"another person asked. "Sir this is my room".The room was soo scanty that there was no bed, what was there was a worn out mat. 

" First, you no get light, that one no touch us, you no get television and now you no even get bed to sleep "one of them said, Wait where you dey work sef. 

I told them that I do mix sand and cement in a building site. I told them my story and they felt pity for me, one of them was even crying for me. The worst part of it is that, as I was talking, a rat came out and stared at me. 

The robbers couldn't believe this, "so even rat no dey fear you again" One of them exclaimed. 

They encouraged me not to give up, they even prayed for me and gave me ten thousand before they left.
