The ₦500 I Save Every Market Day, Nobody In My House Knows About It

My husband think say he know everything about our money. He no know about the cooperative account I open since 2019. Every market day, if sales move well, I drop ₦500. Some days na ₦1,000. Small small. Nobody hear word.

Three women don chop from that account. One, her son was to be sent home from school for fees. Another, her husband was sick, no money for drip. The third, her shop was about to be locked by the landlord. I no tell my husband. I no tell my children. Oluwa knows and that is enough.

When the church cooperative wahala happened two years ago, I learned my lesson. Money wey everybody know about, na that one trouble dey find. My own be say, if I die today, my husband go still find that money. But while I dey alive, na my secret to keep.
