Lady explains why selling of the Nigerian bean cake a.k.a Akara is one of the most dangerous businesses one can venture into.
The Nigerian lady took to social media to share her opinion about the popular roadside business.
According to the lady, there is more about selling akara than meets the eye.
She noted that it is not a kind of business one ventures into with a clear eye, particularly if it involves selling at night.
The lady added that it is only those who have sold the bean cake before that would fully understand what she had said.
“Only poeple that sell akara or have sold akara will understand what I am saying in this video. selling akra is very dangerous. It is not even a business you venture into with clear eyes. Especially if you sell it at night; it is not a business for the weak. That business eh, what is inside is deeper than the akara itself,” she said.
