Description
What do you think is the best way of supporting a startup business? Patronage or promotion ? Well, in this episode, I want to share the story of an IDP who wills to create a family business. This girl named Zarah Mustapha, who is an IDP that had a rough and hard time in the past years, who resides in a camp, hopeless and completely dependent on the hard to come by donations, who is still 18, yet have big dreams and it seems she's doing her best to make some of her dreams come true. Not that her life has completely changed from extreme hardships, it has just changed from extreme to moderate. ‘It was very hard for me and my younger ones to even eat food sometimes. We ran from one tent to another to benefit from what others would cook,’ Zara said, while crying, reminiscing how things were for her. But life is not permanent, sometimes when we work hard, we thrive. https://yen.ng/yen2/2022/05/idp-zara-builds-family-biz-in-cap-making-but-can-that-bring-home-her-dream-of-being-a-doctor
