Prophet Ayodele Backs Mama Tinubu, Calls for ₦500K–₦1.5M Grants to Boost Small Trades

Prophet Ayodele praised Mama Tinubu’s initiatives and urged Nigerians to stop misquoting her. He appealed for larger grants to empower women in petty businesses, recommending ₦500,000 to ₦1.5 million instead of ₦50,000 or ₦100,000. He listed trades such as kuli-kuli, akara, palm oil, zobo, puff-puff, buns, and fried yam. He also urged support for men to sell biscuits, meat pies, pure water and soft drinks. He warned that continued government borrowing would drive further inflation and hardship.

It's surprising that previous small grants didn't boost small trades much, so simply increasing the sums may not guarantee better outcomes.

Shifting to ₦500K–₦1.5M fit just create more dependency and leave traders at politicians' mercy, not necessarily foster real market growth.
