The viral corn seller has withdrawn her ₦2.5 million monthly income claim, saying it was only content. She is now asking Nigerians for help.
The roasted corn seller who recently went viral for claiming she makes ₦2.5 million every month has now changed her story. In a new video, she admitted the statement was not true. According to her, it was only content made to entertain people.
“Make una no vex, na content. I never make that kind of money,” she said.
She also asked Nigerians to forgive her for the claim. The woman explained that if she truly earned that amount every month, she would not still be standing under the hot sun selling roasted corn. She went further to clear the air, saying,
“I’m making ₦2.5 million, yet I’m still standing under the sun? Since I started this corn business, I’ve never made that kind of money. Nigerians, please help me.”
Her emotional appeal has sparked fresh reactions across social media. While some people sympathised with her, others criticised her for spreading false information in the first place.
Meanwhile, many Nigerians believe the incident shows how far some content creators go to attract attention online. Others, however, hope her new confession will encourage more honesty on social media. As the video continues to trend, the corn seller’s U-turn has become another hot topic, with many users sharing different opinions about her viral confession.
