The day my own village sister sealed my shop for nothing

Two years ago, when I just start selling at Agege Market, one woman from my own village, Iya Ronke, report me to taskforce say I dey sell expired goods. Na lie! My provisions dey fresh pass her own. She just jealous because customers dey follow me more.They come seal my shop for three weeks. I nearly die. My four pikin dey look me, I no get money, I no get shop. My husband dey drive danfo but fuel don swallow everything. I cried every night but I no let anybody see me.One morning, I tell myself, 'Blessing, you no be quitter.' I go learn the market rules proper. I go beg taskforce, I go settle small, I go reopen.Today, my shop big pass her own. I dey sell for 16 years now. God don bless me.That woman wey try to kill my business, she later come beg me say she sorry. I forgive am but I never trust am again. Lesson: when person try to bury you, na so God go lift you up. 🙏
