A corn farmer celebrated earning N10 million by selling cocoa beans.
The ecstatic Nigerian farmer revealed this in a popular tweet on X on Sunday, March 2.
According to @Titilolaoluwa, 16 bags of cocoa currently cost N10 million in Akure, the capital of Ondo state.
@Titilolaoluwa encourages people to pursue cocoa growing because it is a successful enterprise.
He wrote:
“We just sold Cocoa beans at N10m pmt. 16 bags of cocoa is now N10m in Akure. “Time to organise a family meeting if your grandparents had cocoa farms in the village and your parents were afraid to get involved.”
He laughed at millennials scared of village people. “I know millennials are afraid of village people. Never knew GenZs too could be afraid with all the wokeness. “So, online is different from reality when it comes to village people .”
