How I raised enough money to go back home after 10 years in Lagos

For years, I had basked in the euphoria of living in
Lagos; I always imagined settling down in the heart of
the city. I had been speaking with my uncle about this
and he assured me that once I was done with school, I
could move in with him.
My new life started in Lagos and I knew almost nothing about
the hustle and bustle of the city. I would sit in my uncle’s store
and observe daily transactions. Days, weeks, months, years
passed and I was getting used to the life in Lagos. I understood
quickly how the business was run and I would usually take full
control whenever my uncle was unavailable.
The only challenge was for me to get my own source of income
having stayed with my uncle for over six years. I signed up to
be a Quickteller Paypoint agent and used a corner in my uncle’s
store as my office. From time to time, customers come in to
make all sorts of bank transactions and bill payments and I
could see the joy on their faces. The joy of saving the
transportation cost and time always brought them back.
Six months into being a Paypoint agent, I have started making
extra money and the experience has been fantastic. Living in
Lagos has been challenging but in the end I have been able to
explore opportunities through Quickteller PayPoint.
It is January now and I am planning to visit the village after 10
years in Lagos. I think it’s the right time as I have been
empowered by Quickteller Paypoint.
