The lady identified as Ade Ola gave a narration of how she hawked pepper due to the financial difficulties of her family.
The PhD holder said that she obtained a second class upper in her first degree which gave way to a higher education abroad.
She travels for her M.Sc degree in Finland where she had to work as a cleaner to make ends met.
On completion of her Masters degree, she got three full scholarships and eventually chose University of Saskatchewan in Canada.
