The fact that those jobs are done by men makes the feel they may not be able to cope. However, the present day women are starting to break barriers and get rid of limiting thoughts that may hinder them from progressing in life. At least, we have testimonies to show that Nigerian ladies are being liberated with the kind of ‘odd jobs’ they are doing now.
A young lady identified as Olabisi has done something remarkable. She ventured into carpentry since this recession has affected every sector of the nation. The intriguing thing about this young lady was that she taught herself carpentry by watching YouTube videos and reading free online books about it. This is a sharp contrast to what other ladies her age will do with the smart devices they carry about. Rather than downloading songs and uploading pictures of herself, she has decided to invest in herself. She remained dedicated as focused hard on her dream of making money through carpentry. Olabisi has started reaping the fruits of her labour as she has started earning some cool cash as a carpenter. The young Nigerian lady is enjoying the process as she is able to do something different. If all the young women in the society can shed off their layers of pride and focus on something worthwhile, the country will record tremendous growth in every facet.
